I would still be interested in getting some regular games going.
Unfortunately, the current state of q2w is not-so-fit. The current listed servers (dale.us and tastyspleen) seem horribly out of date and crash the client regularly. Beyond that, on an updated server&client, there is a consistent reproducable bug where the game segfaults on map change (client only).
