    BBC2 Server - worth keeping?

    Looking over the logs, I see that the AK server has been use very, very little. Many days on end go by with no usage at all.

    What's the deal - is this worth spending $30 a month on still, or should we save our funds for the next thing?

    Showings for the ladder practices have been a bit light. Beast will have to make the call.

    One more practice this Wednesday. If the turnout is low again, we'll scrap the idea of TWL in this game and we can probably take down the server and hold the funds for the next game that comes along.

    I would liked to have participated, but life has entirely kept me from gaming for the last couple months.

    Yeah, I was all set to get really involved with this game, but the oil spill work has kind of put a damper on that. Damn you BP!

    I haven't been able to game much lately - but hopefully can hop on this Wednesday. I don't think I'm signed up for the ladder, but happy to be fodder.

    Yup, my wife and I have had some relatively large changes in our life, so I have been more occupied with real-life issues for the past month or two. All good changes ...

    I've been back in BC2 a few times over the last couple of weeks; should be playing more soon.

    From what I see, when about 5 AK jump on the server, it fills up quickly enough. The issue is it's not so common for 5 AK to jump on the server. At the rate things are going, I'd say this game was a successful hit, but perhaps a short lived one.

    Too many games, too little time. It's not like years ago when a game would keep a stranglehold for 6+ months without question. I suffer from 'Rocks-its'

    I have virtually no gaming time over the last several months. I run my iRacing league on Thursdays and maybe a practice race here and there and that's about it.

    Too many interests, just not enough time.
