Perhaps ShadowFlare can best answer this. Is it possible to implement a custom server and mod that has a Find Match button on the custom bnet server, such that one could automatically find a match with a similiarly ranked player?

Also, for custom servers such as iCCup, SFR, fish, where did they get their code? Did they make it themselves or is there a download somewhere which someone already made a custom server or what?

It's most likely custom made, and getting it from them is not likely to happen (In regards to matchmaking code). There's probably a BnetD sort of thing around though.

Anything is possible when you are in control of the code, the question would be - would it be worth it to invest in such a venture? In Shadowflare's circumstances, I'd say absolutely not, because the playerbase likely to make use of a service now could be counted on one hand.



Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

I'm not suggesting ShadowFlare implements it (although that would be nice :P) but rather a server like iCCup, or else I could set up a server like that myself in the future. Finding games with similiar players seems to be one of the biggest problems new players to iCCup have; this would solve that.

Well, anything is possible through code, it all comes down to time investment.

The server program I use is PvPGN, which is open source.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
