Class restrictions will be increased accordingly to match the normal game balance. Stats will be recording, so if you're behind on the February Cash Giveaway then catch up on points while there's more to kill!

At this time the event is only planned for 2/10/2012.

The monthly stats & standings have been blocked from viewing during the month to keep player ranks more of a surprise. Players will be able to view full stat history over the month following the conclusion of the contest. The top 5 player standings will be released on the 10th, 20th, and upon conclusion of the contest.


To qualify you must:

- Have time already logged on our server with your STEAMID as of this exact moment in time. It can be anything from a minute to a day, but you must have played on the Gravity Bong prior to this contest being announced. (Check here).

- You must register by posting in the registration thread. Doesn't matter what, just as long as you post in it during the month of February. To keep track, any more than one post by the same user will be deleted. (Register here).

- We do not have any rules per say, as this is a new contest we have never explored. We will address any concerns as they arise.

As always Bong on, Good Luck, and don't drink the water.

Seems the server is picking back up now that the new has worn off Skyrim. The rotation server has moved on to other duties, the 2Fort server was busy fighting the Monoculous at Halloween, so if anyone is interested in reinstating happy hours and map changes, we are always open to suggestions to keep things interesting.

And since you asked, YES the Gravity BonG still takes donations (look to the left, don't be shy).

Apparently I had left in place one of several anti-ddos measures I attempted during the period of time that we were being attacked. This was severely restricting the amount of requests the server would answer per second.

Admins will immediately recognize that the ping graph in HLSW is totally cleared up. Yep, that whole mess was totally my bad. Regulars will notice that the server now actually exists in steam, as far as server info, server browser, etc...

I imagine this may help with some of the lag issues as well.

I apologize for all of this being a problem in the first place, as something like that should have been corrected like 2 months ago. I am a failure, and I plan on drinking myself to death later tonight.

But, good side, problem fixed!

I know the common argument against a second server is wanting to play with your friends and no one wants to commit to make the move to an empty server but if anyone has suggestion or comments, feel free to post.

Feel free to add a [BONG] tag to your name, your friend's name, your mom's name, doesn't matter to us, it's just advertising for our server if you play somewhere else (no, we ain't payin' you).

Our rotation server is off doing other things in some seedy industry but we have big plans to re-add another one soon. If you have input for ways to improve our server, keep it to yerself, awright fine, send them to Hick....

On a last note, of course these free-to-play servers operate on donations. We have a link at the left side of this very page where you can deposit all that extra cash you keep on hand. Any amount is appreciated but hey, who wants to be a cheap-ass when you are having this much fun!

BONG On, the Admins..
