EDIT: One more thing, in the primary post it says "Call sign you plan to use in TS2". It's supposed to be "Call sign you plan to use in Roger Wilco". My apologies.

Plently of room for more engineers, an ideal turnout would be 10 or more.

That's odd. I can get to your IP via a Windows ping, but I can't get RW to find it. Any ideas?

Huh. That is odd. Are you putting in the ENTIRE IP of 209.184.57.42:3782/Florida Funnel Multiplayer, the phrase "Florida Funnel Multiplayer" is part of the IP.

Yep. I'm doing the exact same thing I did last week on Sandpatch. From what I can tell, I'm not even getting to the point where "Florida Funnel Multiplayer" is an issue because the client can't find you.

All I can really come up with is that you might want to just try looking through the whole list of servers, it should defiently be there. Hope you can get in, just two trains going in the same diection ain't that exciting...

Well, after some testing, it's not that. I just can't seem to get to your IP, because pinging it comes up dry. Probably something to do with the latest Microsoft feature and disruptions as a result thereof.

Could be. To be perfectly honest, you're not missing much, the session has not gone well so far. Started it off with the two trains running each other over just outside of Jacksonville due to an error in communication, started the session over, things went smoothly for 30-40 minutes, then my ISP kicked me offline about 15 minutes ago, reconnected, no one has logged back onto the server yet, so I don't know what's going on. Maybe the next one will be better, it couldn't get much worse.

No 611, had the exact same problem you were experienceing, so i gave up and went to bed. I'd like to request that we have another one hosted again soon, but rather, using TeamSpeak, then RW.

Sunday night, perhaps? I'd be glad to dispatch, but I would prefer not to host the session. My ISP disconnected me at about 11:45 last night, I reconnected, no one showed back up, and I finally shut it down and went to bed at about 12:30 a.m. Maybe someday I'll smarten up and pay the extra $$ to go with DSL.
