How do I make my own server for me and my friends to play CTF on. I made on but they say they can't find it anywhere under the Capture the Flag section of the server search thing. Is there something I have to do to make the server visible and stay there so we cna play whenever and meet up there?

if you know you're ip, then the above + what you know about your ip will fix the problem

if you dont know you're ip, well, i just mostly use mirc to figure mine out, so if you have mirc, then //echo -a $ip

might have to connect to a server first though *shrug*

Yeah, if you know your IP address, then all they have to do is Open Location and enter it.

Hehe just jokin' around, bud. Because 99% of people use 'your' when it's supposed to be 'you're'. And ironically, most people use 'you're' when it's supposed to be 'your'.

Lesson for everyone:

You're cool.
Your cat is cool. :D :up:

... Wait so if I find my general IP address having nothing to do with UT. Just, my IP address, say 21.23.54.199 and my friend puts just those numbers in on the open thing it'll work?

Yep, if you don't have a firewall or a network, then it will work. To get your IP, go to http://www.ipchicken.com/

make sure you didnt edit the port, but if you did, then let them have that too
