Luukland

From Luukland's Servers OpenTTD Wiki

Inventor of the Luukland's Servers

In 2007, some of you might remember, I started the Luukland's Servers. Everyweekend I hosted 2/3 games on my laptop. Luckily players seemed to LIKE thegames, due to the increased difficulty and the great admin supervision.Resulting in a very cozy and sometimes very busy server. About 1 year ago, I met Fugas , who remembered me from earlier. He did mean offer I couldn't refuse. At the summer of 2009, we finally had a 24/7 server. Unpatched that is, because Luukland , me, can't code. Basic html is about it. In my search I found peace with Goulp .

Goulp

Some people think Goulp is a human. Or plural; humans. Neither are true, itis a believe, a religion. Without a spiritual leader, and very little documentation. Goulp provided me with the first Luukland's Servers patch ! I believe it was theairport patch, which limited the amount of airports to 5. Quite easy and innovative at that time. Gratitude and thanks went to Goulp .He even helped getting a base of operations, a HQ to be setup. Most of you willremember; luukland.goulp.net ;) The years to come would prove to be difficult.
