On behalf of the THUNDERDOME Server Project, I'm pleased to announce the launch of a new bookable WFA port. This port will be available to any interested WFA clans that need a server for matches and/or practices. This port will be running on a seperate match box to avoid any problems caused by the loads on our public ports.
THUNDERDOME utilizes a web-based booking system that can be found on our website. Persons that wish to book the port will be required to complete a short registration form, consisting of a username, name, email address, and ICQ UIN#. You will then recieve a password via email to login with and make your reservations. The entire process is very simple and should only take a couple of minutes. Server IP information is also provided on the booking page.

Ports can only be reserved by registered users. Reservations may be made in 1 to 3 hour time increments. Also as a FYI, the booking system runs on Central Standard Time by default, so be careful about which time slots you choose.
The port will ONLY be available for use during booked time slots. When booking, the user will be required to specify a password to access the port with. The port will automatically restart with the specified password during their time slot, and when the reservation expires the server will RESTART and close the port again. I'm aware of the many problems some clans have with starting matches on time, so fair warning about this. All of our match ports operate in the same manner, so this is beyond my control.
Notice to all OGL and STA admins and refs: I've done my best to set up the port with all of the necessary match maps and required settings. If there are ANY issues at all, please let me know ASAP so I can get them fixed.
I encourage you to visit the message thread at the following link. If you have any questions or concerns, I will do my best to address them. Thanks.
