Public Service Announcement?

@f27 could you remind me what is PSA?

It would be easier to have a PSA about the DPI censorship in Russia at this point

If you add me to friends, I want you to ping my IP.

Same issue. Cant connect without turning on VPN

Try a VPN if you are having problems connecting, I have heard there's a lot of issues with EU ISPs. Cloudflare warp is supposedly pretty solid

Can't join EU server for some reason

Good job slitti, you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ legend!
And good job Castaway.tf!

Shoutout to captain slitti, who not only was the originator of this bizzarre venture, but was also present on the servers for ~30 of the 48 hours. However this session was not the achievement of one guy, this was a collective effort which was only possible thanks to hundreds of players joining all throughout, not just from NA, but from all over the world. On the 28th we had ~240 unique players join, on the 29th ~280!

Thank you to everyone who participated in this milestone session. This was only possible thanks to the continued dedication and loyalty of our players.

And some other good news as well - EU seems to be getting back on its feet again due to a dedicated seeding effort, cheers to those who came to Castaway Germany’s aid in recent weeks.

A new record has been set - we have just had our longest lasting playsession to date.
On November 28, at around 7PM Eastern Time – NA Castaway began a session that ended up lasting 48 hours, until 7PM November 30. There were naturally some playercount fluctuations along the way, but the NA session held strong without really emptying out for 2 days straight. This started as the 3rd 24 hour session of the year, but once we reached that milestone, a local madman known as slitti decided he was not satisfied and decided to push the session for 48 hours, just to prove a point - and that point was indeed proven.

Despite the fact that this session was not planned in advance, meaning some of our core players were unavailable, despite the other Castaway regions having their own sessions at the same time, and in spite of some technical issues – miraculously Castaway Virginia really was alive for 48 hours straight.

EU is still somewhat grim but showing signs of life.

This wasn’t a particularly good month in general, but EU’s decline is genuinely staggering, especially in the latter half of the month, the result is that October for EU had less than 1/3 of the session hours of September (51 compared to 176). Some of the core EU regulars are currently MIA and we have also received several complaints of players (especially those of a certain nationality) having connection issues. I do expect the situation to improve this month, but of course that entirely depends on the EU players.
