This post is to let everyone know that the master server is going to be moving out of the raven offices and into a real co-lo site. Unfortunately during this move there will be some issues.  

Starting sometime tommorow we will issue the request for the DNS change.  The master server at raven will still be running as will the new one at our co-lo.  As the DNS propegates some people will be talking to one master server and some to the other.  This means that you may not be seeing the whole list of servers for a bit while they propegate to the new DNS.  However, you should still be able to connect to any of the servers on your favorites list.

DNS usually takes 24-48 hours to propegate but can take up to a week sometimes for some providers.  We ask for everyones patience during this move.

Early next week we will finnaly shut down the old master server and field any remaining issues with people still talking to the wrong one as they come up.  If your are a server admin and your server is no longer listed next week then try restarting it and see if that fixes the problem (the old dns result may be cached by the dedicated server).

Again, we ask for everyones patience during the next week and we will try to make sure things go as smooth as possible.

The DNS change has been submitted which means the process of moving has begun..

By the way, the new IP address for the master server is

63.146.124.45

If you want to temporarily muck with your hostname file.  If your dont know what a hostname file is then ignore this

Thanks for the headsup.

geeerrrr, #### AT&T and there ultra-fast DNS updates. I wanted to try out Jihad, but now I only have a list of 20 servers    

I'll have to wait...........

On the upside, MadTown is one of those servers... then again it's already in my favorites so it doesn't matter anyway.

Is this why i have only been getting 15 servers from list?
Also, servers are being listed twice. Is this cause it is being requested from both master servers?
I have talked to some other SOF2 players, and they have not had any probs getting server lists.    

i havent had any problems with the master server list so it must only affect certain isp's

Yeah i am using sucky ass aol. #### merger bs

This explains alot for me. I have a thread in the general part of SOF about this. Could you all delete it since I didn't take the time to check out all areas of the forum? Here is the link
