Gaia sounds fine.

(/ironically, I'm downloading an addon map for a game under that exact same name as we speak) :roll:

That's our 3rd server, and 4th machine already. The 5th will be coming in a week or so, and then we'll get to play the naming game all over again :shock:
So what are the current names? I know of Nago, but what're the names of the main server and 4th machine? Knowing what already exists could help us come up with better names.

"Server, begin uploading music videos"

"I'm afraid I can't do that, derobert'

What was the name of that computer? HAL?

Let's call it HAL :wink:

Gaia sounds good to me.

Although all of the above suggested are very tempting to name on the other hand....

How about we just name it

That way, you can always give those abusing the upload rules the good ol' righteous

Here is the complete, as far as I know it, list of .org machine names.

Ancient history:
ranma - I think this is what Phade called the first .org server, when it set in the machine room at Gearboxx. Ran IIS on a Celeron. c. 2001.
unknown - At some point, we moved to shared hosting. Don't remember what the machine was called.

Less ancient history:
data - The name of the web/db server when we first got dedicated hosting at rackshack. Might of had another name as well, not sure.
pompom - The name of the first local download server. Was also called storage, but that name is just an alias (and got moved to Nago at some point)

Both of the above two are gone, and the names don't count (because we didn't assign them). They were replaced by these two:

Yuri - the current web/db server. Yuri is from Dirty Pair Flash.
Nago - the current local download server. almost full. Nago is from Mononoke Hime.

In addition, there is one more machine:

Kuno - the video backup server. Stores an off-site copy of the videos on Nago. Kuno is from Ranma 1/2.

And, the two new machines:

"Nago #2": Second local download server, since Nago is getting full. Just delivered to my house today. (The one this thread is about)
"Kuno #2": Second video backup server. Ordered, but not yet delivered.

Hope that helps.

The use of numerals is disheartening! You guys should be able to think of something better...like say a relatives' name or a character with a personal relationship.

I'm very dispointed. :?
