Default Re: Any plans for an \"official\" hosting server?

Okay. We have questions for those who are 'in the know'...

1. How many games can be hosted by a dedicated server at one time?
I've hosted three games at once in graphical mode on my old 800 MHz PIII with 256 MB of RAM running windows 98 while still using it to play other games. Hosting only takes significant computer resources during turn processing in my experience.

2. How much bandwidth does this take?
I believe that it's only as much as is needed to transfer turn files.

It would be great if Shrapnel ran some kind of official server.
