Well, considering the small amount of actual bandwidth that (I imagine) is needed for the games, the main cost would be the hardware. What kind of hardware would be needed to host 10-20 games on one machine?
I think you mean "the administration." People are always more expensive than machines, and one of the reasons Shrapnel has given for not supporting downloadable distribution of Dom3 is that downloadable distribution's costs are dominated by support costs. I expect an official Dom3 server would be similar. How much time does llamabeast spend on the Llamaserver?
