Be nice if we could get one US server populated in the evenings, if not nightly atleast a couple nights a week. I would've already been on skates server but its late for me and I've been workin major hours cleaning up Hurricane Ike damage, very long days and hard to stay up late enough.

Its cyclic for sure ... and its a down cycle at the moment.
Beta testing  was very productive for the games development, but also disrupted the harmonic effect that had people all getting on together recently.
Have no fear, as more people than ever have tried and love the game.
What I feel will bring everyone back into harmony (syncronized) again is the reslease of the next revision. Then the big battles like we had last month will be in full swing.
keep up the good work, thats what matters.

Had two awesome Escape from Hoth rounds tonight with 22 people, some cool rounds on the other maps, too, the mod is definitely not dead .
