Well I know x10 offers the best free hosting I've seen but....x10gaming?

What is it?
Who is it?
Why does it exist?
Or Why will it exist?

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks, from John Klyne?

x10gaming in present tense is a screen with a countdown timer, which will be a new server.

Who should be obvious, it's the same x10hosting but for games.

It exists because it existed several years ago actually, but didn't work out; it's been sitting idle until now. :)

Google Search shows the idea dating back to 2005, where an old user was working with Corey on the site. Probably existed before then but that's the oldest one I was able to find in terms of x10Gaming being mentioned.

I personally think it'll be a big hit this time around.

...I see... it started years ago before collum was born....that settles everything...

can't wait to see what it really is...hosting just for games?

Can't you do that with normal hosting? (i'm thinking there is more than that to it).

Dedicated game server instances.

Free hosting - for games.

That's the simple answer.

/me laughs maniacally, again.

I've been bugging Corey to tell me how he can afford to do it for free, lol. We'll have to see, here's hoping I get picked for beta-testing and that somehow Minecraft servers are an option. A buddy of mine's in the market for a minecraft server host, lol.

I'm looking forward to it, even though I'm not much of a gamer

Interesting... what happens when your hopes and dreams are crushed?

*ponders leaking more details

Not much left to leak honestly. Pretty sure it's all been leaked already. Just read carefully, think abstractly, and you just might not be surprised in a week.

So I've heard mention of TF2 and MineCraft for this. But what about Skulltag?
