Well. GameSpy, and most other query tools, try to do lots of servers simultaneously. So, in the end, it won't be twice as long... Maybe 10% time increase or so, depending on how the tools ahdles simultaneous connections. > Heh, have you seen gamespy lately :) Yes...

OK, while you get DoS-ed for the next 300 years (which is how long it will take ISP's to start implementig this), we'll try to find other solutions.
