Another update on Man of Teal Gaming Community.
We are now going on four years running. Site membership has slowed as well as players online.
Has the multiplayer project lost it's momentum?
Let's hope not.
We've added a few new features to the site, a point system with levels and a new messenger service that is "live" and much easier to use.
It works just like Facebook messenger. We also added push notifications to the site and messenger. Help is almost immediate now.

You’ve been building your dream park of the century, setting up shops, depots, playgrounds and entertaining millions of tiny things that look vaguely like caffeinated humans, if humans were an arrangement of 16 pixels that is.
You’ve mastered the birds-eye god mode and made a virtual fortune. And yet, you are all alone?
Even the multiplayer mode is depressingly limited to the game itself. Time for a change! You’re not alone! Join Man Of Teal and share your passion with your fellow builders, well beyond the walls of OpenRCT2.
Show off your creations, gang up, ask and learn, help newbs and advance the noble cause of being Roller Coaster Tycoon!

Join today and play! Or come back and check all the new website features new faster game servers. ManOfTeal.COM -
Trojan reported today when game is updated with developer, stable does not show this threat.

It's been a while since a post was made from MoT.
Great work on all the game options available! Very very rarely does a server crash anymore.
I thought I'd share the "Albums" of our website that showcases the Builders abilities and designs. If you get a chance check some of the albums out. Amazing work.

How to Install the Man Of Teal App
How to get a "1 Click" solution to access the Man Of Teal Website on your phone.
Note: Currently, this is only a solution for Android Phones. We'll be working on adapting the App in the future for iPhones.
Step 1:
Install and Open Chrome Browser
Step 2:
Type ManOfTeal.COM into the browser and go to the site.
Step 3:
Click on the 3 dots in the right-hand corner of the screen for the options drop down menu.
Then choose the Option: "Add to Home Screen"
Step 4:
Go to your home screen on your phone and click on the Man Of Teal Icon.
You now have a one click solution to going directly to the Man Of Teal site on your Phone with just 1 click!
Please share this with people on all of your social media!

I'm here in north Florida all ready to ride it out.
The worse part will be the power going out.
Stay safe everyone!

I'd like to thank all the MoT members for the most amazing past year! Yes ManOfTeal.com is one year old today! Starting with one server and now able to put up to five servers online for contest, co-op builds and more.
We have a lot of website members, 814, not all are active but come and go throughout the year.
I have to give a big thanks to the admins that make the actual place work for you all. 60trainhunter, disembodiedsoul, RoytheDragon and several more are the wizards.. thanks guys! As we look forward I hope there are many more advances in the options the developers bring us.
Let's not forget this all couldn't happen without developers that work on this project for FREE! Thank you development team!

OK. I choose the Dell Dimension 2400 that was stored in my basement to be my server machine for this game. I am thinking of installing Linux on that machine. What is the best causal Linux OS that I can install and use on that machine?
The default power supply in the Dimension 2400 is a 250w unit, that is not always used of course. But still on the hi end.
What I've done with MoT is purchase Dell™ OptiPlex™ FX160 computers from ebay for $19.99 a piece. Older but serve the games just fine. The power supply for those are 50w, translating to less $ and less heat for home game hosting. Below are my ratings for power use here in Florida, our cost is $0.067 kWh. I'm looking at less than $3 a month for each of my servers.
QuoteI see that I live in an area that has nuclear power plants and the final overnight cost is $8000. And in my state, you pay $13.7 per kWh.
I think you mean $0.137 per KWh, with that rate and PC your looking at about $20 - $25 a month extra.

The following post has been edited to show current site images...
Now that we have been up and running for a while I decided to share some information about ManOfTeal.com and the benefits of a unified gaming community.
Providing memberships for verification of players is not just to allow game server play.
Providing a base for keeping up with current activity, new rules, problems with servers, contest, etc..
Solving problems with players, or complementing them.
All this is essential for member continuity, getting to know the other builders and so on.
Our Home Page,
Forums,
Photo Albums,
Active Builders Page,
Events section for Contest,
A simple page to point for basic server rules,
an active Discord page as well,
We welcome all levels of builders.
Members start out on a ground zero server to prove building skills with a "Verified" builder status or permission.
Once those are shown, perms are advanced to a more advanced level, "Verified +," allowing land and water controls.
As you progress you move up in servers the ultimate level of permission will be "MoT Trusted" allowing personal game "cheat" control.
The more advanced you get the closer you get to our Realistic Server; that is invitation only.
We are currently at as of this writing, a strong 814 members and growing daily.
Looking forward to the future of OpenRCT2 thanks to all the Developers that contribute to this project.
Thanks for reading.

What would cause the server list to not populate?
The main servers list shows here but not on any instance of the game I open.
It was the latest build, I had to revert to https://openrct2.org/downloads/develop/2c58543 to get my servers back online.

I suggest you try update https://openrct2.org/downloads/develop/6f95ba4 (the version under the one the suspected crash is) as the version you're playing might have a bug in it
This issue has been reported on GitHub and is being looked at
With that version opening the rides list crashes game.

Foreigners? OpenRCT2 doesn't have any national country and if they did - It would probably be the Neatherlands
This map photo shows where my site members are from, taken from Google Analytics.
Looks like we are spread out good.

We are now up to 252 members on the MOT site since June 2nd 2016.
People like stability, not like what I see in the servers list.

We need to have better server moderation
in Multiplayer Discussion
Posted
My user are required to join a website, which captures their IP address at the time they join, it's not the best system but it helps.
I've not seen many players as of late.
Trusted moderators and admins are very important to control this type of hate.
