Expedition: Atlantis (Just Another Day At The Office, Part 4)(Author’s note: if you haven’t read the earlier parts of this story, you should read that first before enjoying this story.

Speed Server: Name and launch date announced

on . Posted in News

Speed Server: Name and launch date announcedAfter receiving hundreds of suggestions we have finally decided on the name for our first speed server, Ares. From Wikipedia: Ares is the Greek god of war.
