Playing last night on the server I was wittnessing strange connection problems:

In the end of the round (I believe it was on Yemen) 4 or more players left the game whereas non of 'em intended to leave. Mao Mak Maa and Schnullerbacke where on TS with me and they didn't drop out of TS. (seems the same thing happend to Taque, Duke and some more)

The rest of us was still on the map playing without any diffculties but the others weren't able to see the game or join. (even with open ip / rebooting machine...).

Even after mapchange it took several minutes until most of 'em could join again, but the same thing happened again on Portugal.

Maybe the logs offer some hint?

I kept lagging out from the server last night until I finally gave up. I also had several ping spikes of over 2000 which made it pretty much unplayable while I was there anyway.

Not only were some people being randomly dropped (Duke especially so), but there were some problems when trying to reconnect to switch teams. I would type it and literally nothing would happen. I then tried to double click on the server in the browser and it would just say "Connecting at: ..." indefinitely. The only way I could switch was to disconnect completely and reconnect through the browser with the intended changes (loadout, team, etc...).

Also, when I was dropped from jgkdo, the server wouldn't appear on my browser for several minutes. All of this related?

It's probably the cheat detecting file that tracks down potential troublemakers based on reputation and skill :p
Not only did it boot me (on team attackers only oddly enough), but it crashed me to the desktop with a serving of hexidecimal.

Another thing: You often can't change teams - even if yours is larger. You'll find yourself in the same team again after reconnect.

When things beyond comprehension happen, my admin at work keeps saying: reboot - always good ;)
