super duper mega bad lag tonight

[Ryno23]

just an FYI for the powers that be.

tonite the online play was so slow that the game was unplayable.

haven't a clue why, but i figured you guys would like to know.

[japetus462]

me and greatscott tried to play a game, and yea..it lagged so bad we couldnt play  

[GreatScott]

anyone else besides me a japetus?  goddam awful unplayable lag

[Ryno23]

JoeDirt and I just tried it.  Lag was awful.

Many times we didn't even see pitches.

It was bad.

I wish I were smart. . .then maybe i could figure out the problem.

I'm just a dumb moocher. . . . moochin' off those who know how to fix this thing

[JoeDirt]

Hey Gantry...not complaining here even one tiny bit, but what's up with the recent lag?  

Just wondering if perhaps it's something that is easily fixable or if it's more of a function of too many people playing at once, clogging your bandwidth...

[Gantry]

I'm not sure what is up with the recent lag.  I made a thread for a second server so if dee-nee is slow then trying another server would be a good idea...

I was browsing at work today and it's a big slow so I think it might be our bandwidth.  I have a feeling one of our computers has a virus or something on it which is suckin up all the bandwidth...

[GreatScott]

another server ... um sorry to sounds so clueless but what would you suggest.  thanks for getting on this problem so quick.  Dee-Nee is holding the RBi community on its back.  
Cant wait for this online problem to end so i can beat all your brains in.

[Gantry]

 Well it looks like this server doesn't work anymore, even though the fce ultra page said to use it.  Ass...

Any news, Brother Gantry?  

[Gantry]

Finally got of my ass and got in touch with my ISP and they are seeing a ton of serious errors on our T1 line.  They are going to tweak the router on their side and then call SBC, will know more in a hour.  But at least there is an issue and we should have a fix one way or the other...

[JoeDirt]

YES!  

[Gantry]

Just talked to my ISP and they think they've fixed it.  I don't have the hiccups when using ssh/telnet so I think we're in business...

Give it a whirl people and let me know...

[Ryno23]

home run!

that biznitch is workin' like a charm.

Thank you Mr. Gantromanator!

[Gantry]

Yup, just played a couple games against JoeDirt today and the lag was non-existant for the most part.  A couple patches here and there but all-in-all playable.  Be prepared to adjust to emulator timing tough, not quite the same.  But play away...
