That is what causes our name to be affiliated. I know some guys were talking about doing coding for a GTA server and willing to let us carry on the WTFGTA thing, but without one of us onboard... it would be silly to have our name on it. Divinity is as close as we've come to backing something without having someone activity in a lead position on the server and 1> I am an admin whether I am active in that and 2> it doesn't have our name on it.
I don't know what Risks, cr0ss or Joe are interested in as far as taking the lead on something. I'm pretty sure Joe and I are in the same boat which is "I barely have time to play again, let alone lead one".
I dunno. There is the possibility of bringing someone on to act as a lead for a side project and I'm not totally against it, but it definitely would be a first and feels weird to me to do. I suppose that if there is enough player interest for such a thing and someone competent stepped up and impressed me enough, I guess that would make sense. Still strange to me though.
Maybe that's what the site needs though. I'm still hopeful that since AoC is quite a decent game with a FFA PVP atmosphere that it'll generate more posts/traffic, but it probably won't do shit compared to a WTFMan server of some type. Hell, IPY overnight brought in thousands of hits a day.

Thoughts?

Yeh, We were discussing it with a few people in the IRC, but you mentioned that. Ryan was all for hosting it, but we never went any further then that. You said you'd put the word in on the private forums for us.
It's fine though, no hurry for anything.
