Server Location
 
Where is the server for blue and red P99 geographically located?

Thanks.

Definitely isn't France... you guys take your low pings for granted. I'm on a 200ms minimum in the UK :p

It's one coast or the other :p

My son and I used to buy and sell servers. We had 5 of them running in my bedroom once. They are neat as hell. 5 of them could run P1999 I think.

The servers are on the East coast of the US somewhere in the Carolina's.

I ran a trace route from California, DC, and Virginia. I got routed through Atlanta each time.
The servers aren't far enough north that I'd stop at a Virginia router. It put me through Atlanta.
I'm thinking somewhere in North/South Carolina close to Atlanta.


There were 2 hops after passing through Atlanta which didn't have PTR records so I can't confirm the exact location. IP location look ups are not always accurate (company I work for purchases IPs on the west coast and uses them on the east coast) so I can't say exactly.

If I'm right I live about 6 hours away from the servers which is nice.

Not that it matters I guess but...

why would anyone want information on the servers unless they planned on messing with them? not calling anyone out or throwing labels it just seems very shady to me.

Curiosity. Or to find out if the latency they're experiencing is a problem or if it's just due to the geographical distance between them and the server.

In what way would knowing the physical location of a server assist in 'messing' with it? It's online and has an IP address. That's all you need to know if you want to DDoS.

It's not like the server is sitting in a shack on Rogean's back yard. It's in a Colocation data center with 24/7 security, video monitoring, and support. You're not going to be able social engineer your way in and pull the hard drive out.
