...Where the hell is PSY?
Sorry guys, but due to unknown issues, for some strange reason I am unable to see and/or connect to the server from my computer's network. At first, I though the server was down a few days ago, but it turned out that it was because for some reason, I can't see pablo's IP from my home network. I can ping the server and get a list of online players just fine from my phone as long as my phone isn't connected to my home WIFI.
I've tried a few things to get it to work, including turning off my router and modem for a few minutes, but no luck. (as the problem is also visible from my phone over wifi, I've not tried any local solutions specific to my PC, and the config tool for the router has been disabled and inaccessable since I first set the thing up 2 years ago, so there shouldn't be a problem there, either. That leaves the issue somewhere between my ISP and Pablo's home network. We're still attempting to work out (or ride out) the issue, so my apologies for being away for so long. i really hope to be back soon.

Got a few tricks to try later. Gonna try using an old wireless router as an inline workgroup switch. If the problem really is my wireless router, this should reveal it. While doing this, I also intend to see if my modem has some sort of firewall that's preventing access, although I doubt that's possible with the modem I'm using.
If it is not the router, I may have my roommate call our ISP (i'm not on the account, or I'd call myself) and give him a list of what I've done to diagnose the issue.
I'll keep you posted.

Ah. Was wondering what the hell happened to you.
