One of those tedious facts of life innit? My static IP is 202.xxx.xxx.xxx. My server's IP, less than a few kms from me, is 60.xxx.xxx.xxx. Takes a *long while* to show up in the default browsers, but via word of mouth etc it's doing quite well, thanks all the same... The IP fanning principle sounds ok, but perhaps not that hot for countries with split IP ranges. Them's the breaks. It works ok in most cases. IMHO, if you're aiming for chance players with a marketing strategy of 'grab the lowest first octet IP', then you're grasping at straws anyway... If you've gambled all on an undocumented system like that then you're as foolish as a h4x0r who thinks the latest OGC is undetectable. Really, what were you thinking?
