Question: How would VALVe determine if you were at home or in a data center? What kind of method would they use to decide? How long the server had been up and running (Under the assumption that most home servers are started up to play a few rounds on, then shutdown when the host leaves)? Who owns the IP(This doesn't seem likely, I can't imagine them checking the databases for IP ownership to determine list order)? If we figure out what their criteria is, perhaps we can get around it.. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
