Time for a West Coast NA Server!!!!

Please vote and if in the case you think you could host one please tell us what you have to offer!

I would love a server in Seattle, since I live in Alaska.

British Columbia here.  A Seattle server would be great!

[Tired]

Vancouver Island here,

I am happy with the current servers but would not say no to even lower ping.

A West Coast server would be great!

Once I take care of some bills/upgrades I've been debating whether or not to spring for a Seattle cRPG server if chadz would be cool with that.

Heard you mention that alot since I started playing crpg.  I would donate if you started one.  Would be nice to see a 80-120 man battle server, or whatever you call it.  Never play seige myself, but maybe both if people wanted that too. 

What would the startup and monthly costs associated be?  I know nothing about servers and whether people rent them or have them?  But if we could ballpark costs I'm sure we could cough up donators to get it up and running.  But from what I can tell it is up to chadz and I really don't know how things are run either so it's not my choice either way.  Just throwing it out there though.

Van Isle here as well!

Seattle is sitting in the north-west corner of the continental US and would be of little to benefit to those in the south/mid-west such as Southern Cali, Texas, or New Mexico.

It would benefit more people to host the server in a Mid West location such as Salt Lake City if suitable hosting exists there.

I am sure if someone wanted to put up a server, chadz would have no problem with it.

I know for a fact Seattle has some good hosting, and it would make for a better contrast with the current east-coast servers. But it's not like it's our choice anyway.

No doubt Seattle has good hosting, I generally get around 70-80 ping on servers hosted there, and I live in Northern California which would be an improvement for me. But as I stated I believe there are better hosting locations that would benefit a larger majority of people.

I live in the middle of Alaska and I get 50-60 ping there.

Crossing my fingers on Seattle or Vancouver...I've been playing with 90-170 ping right through with the current NA's available.  Parrying just isn't a big possibility with that ping and this skill lvl.

16 people voted yes so far.  Any idea if there is a large enough player base to support a WCNA server?  I mean I'm guessing there must be, but that's based on assumption alone.  50+ solid would be great.  But even the 80 man dips below 30 alot.  But a WCNA would feed from all current NA's as well as stragglers from the EU I guess.  Things would even out.

If anyone could set one up in the mountain time zone, that would be ideally close to everywhere on the west cost and central.

That's what I was thinking! I figured Salt Lake City would ideal as it's roughly 700 miles away from every major city such as LA, to Dallas, to Seattle. 

I started a poll here although I'm not sure if people are voting based on what they feel would be a prime location for everyone involved or if they are just choosing a location closest them.

I live in Cali and chose SLC even though a LA based server would be more ideal for me, I was just trying to think of everyone else.
