These servers don't exist anymore, but used to be around. This page is for historical preservation, and also to give folks looking to build a new server some ideas of what's been around. Whenever possible, the reasons for the old servers going down are included.
Labyrinth
The first of its kind, a maze server using automatically generated mazes that change every 5 minutes. While it's a mathematical certainty that some mazes must eventually be repeated, it is unlikely that you'll experience this phenomenon.
This server was taken down due to its usage of server resources. It was fun, though, and before its time. 0.2.8.0 hadn't been released yet, so only a few early adopters were able to play it.
Swamplords on Crack
Lucifer runs this server to provide a gladiatorial fight with a twist: map rotation. Every new match you are faced with a different map. The maps available in the rotation are subject to change but are generally accepted from the community. High speeds and higher rubber make this a fight you won't want to miss, if you think you can handle the relatively small arena sizes.
This server was taken down in favor of Lucifer's interest in pursuing team servers. Occasionally players that remember this server ask to have it back. Like the Labyrinth, it was ahead of its time. The first map rotation server, it was taken down before 0.2.8.0 was released.
Swamplords Teams
The specific incarnation discussed here is as a 3-team fortress server. It had a pretty wild 3-pointed map with lots of hallways for good close fighting, with interesting terrain features that seriously impacted tactics. It was taken down in part due to its low popularity, but mostly because Lucifer wants to reclaim server resources on his server for more important things and there's plenty of fun servers around.
World of TNA
Built for the grid game roulette, this server is run by TiTnAsS.<Shut Down until further notice>
