RabidDonkey, I don't know if you read this forum, but I'm very curious where you are located. I've never seen the console report a ping this low before.

I see this quite a bit on the beta server. Keep in mind that a ping this low is probably actually as much as twice that, because in some cases TWGS can only measure the ping to the player's ISP and not all the way to the player's machine. I figure ping measurements on TWGS are at best within +/- 10 ms anyway.

I ran an IP location lookup, and it says he is in Yucon, OK. That's only 25 miles from my house, and he is on the same ISP (Cox Cumminications). So technically, the connection isn't even going over the internet.

I know Toyman is from Oklahoma. It may be him.

Not me I am in Harrah and my ISP uses Cox, mine is 20~30ms. But I am not currently playing......although that ping is tempting ;)

Could be Scolfax he is in the Mustang/Yukon area.

Probably about the same distance from be, but east instead of west.

Cool. I have relatives in Ralston, Stillwater, Hominy, and Wynona. I was born in Pawhuska, OK.

I lived in OKC from 1998 to 2000. I know Muldar was down there at that time. I had lunch with him once while I was there.

I know it isn't you T0y, but you have to admit, RabidDonkey sounds very T0yman-esque.
