Get Your "Screaming Doom 3 Dudes" Video at Quentin's Place!

by Joey deVilla on Tue 24 Aug 2004 04:47 PM EDT | Permanent Link | Cosmos

Quentin Smith has kindly offered to host the "Doom 3-Playing Teenagers Screaming Like Hyenas in a Wood Chipper" video on a high-bandwidth server. I don't know how long he can do it for, so there are no guarantees.

Get it here.

Thanks very much, Quentin! I raise a filet mignon on a flaming sword to you!

(And yes, the kids in the video were what convinced me to go and get a copy of the game. As soon as I find out why my Radeon 9800 isn't working right.)

Looks like the switch my server is on is having problems. I just saw the server drop out for 30 seconds; I'll keep monitoring it. I've got plenty of bandwidth left, though. I'm currently spewing 3.26 Mbps, after a max of 5.5 Mbps. The file has been downloaded 2645 times so far, drawing approximately 10.7 GB of traffic. I'll keep you informed...

P.S. Sorry, I'm a bit of a statistics junkie :D

Okay then. Here's a graph of the first 24 hours:

http://us3.comclub.org/mirror/bandwidth.png

Statistics reported for that time period were:

Max: 5.00 Mbits/s
Avg: 2.17 Mbits/s
Cur: 1.40 Mbits/s
Total: 22.8 GB

I'll be posting the current bandwidth graph at:

http://us3.comclub.org/mirror/bandwidth2.png

grep says that the file has been downloaded 7060 times so far (that includes a few since I prepared the graph and statistics above).

P.S. I think the availability problems I was seeing last night are gone. The ISP seems to have been having a DoS attack, judging by the bandwidth graphs of their external links that they provided. Or it could have been some idiot who screwed up their routing.
P.P.S. Feel free to send me an e-mail if you ever wanna host another big file :)

About This Blog

Back in high school, after reading Space-Time and Beyond for the umpteenth time and drinking one too many zombies with my friend Henry, we came up with a theory:

In the infinite set of universes, there had to exist a particular universe in which the events in our lives were being watched as a TV show.

We then made a solemn vow to live in a way to keep our ratings up.

This is the continuation of that story.
