    Hi all,

    It might look like we're doing nothing but we're actually hard at work to fix a lot of stuff and right now it's starting to pay off.

    Honorcode is working hard to iron out all the bugs in PR. We need your help though to squash more bugs so please keep reporting them here:

    http://mgftw.com/bugs.

    Next is the DDoS attacks, we're being targeted almost 24/7 right now but our efforts to find anti-DDoS solutions are paying of as we speak.

    For the first time in months, our new US-WEST server has been DoS and DDoS free for the entire evening now. People are still playing on that server and don't notice anything while other servers are going down by the huge amount of traffic that's hitting them. So good news there!

    For the Chicago servers, we've changed the port numbers to block an exploit that only worked on port 27015 and made the server crash, so all ports on Chicago have been changed to 27016 and the crashes should have been solved there. Please test.

    A lot of other port numbers have been changed as well so be sure to update your bookmarks!

    For Asia, this server wasn't running the quest enabled PR yet but since now it does!

    And, last but not least, a few weeks ago we've updated the servers with a new built of Sourcemod and the loss of stats seems to be fixed!! Last loss of stats report was a long time ago so we have good hopes with that.

    So yes we are getting ddossed and yes there are still some bugs but we're getting there and we'll never give up no matter what they throw at us!!

    Thanks for reading!
