Just an FYI since a few people have been asking, the DC-Talk game servers are currently down following an internet outage due to a storm yesterday. Impulse and brourke are currently looking into the issue but in the meantime, the Maximum Pool, VEGA PSO ship, and the Quake III Arena master server are down. Note if you're using an NTSC copy of Quake III Arena, you can still manually connect to a server using the "More" button on the bottom-right of the server select screen.
Update: Server is back up!
