This is an official announcement of the launch of a new US Public
server for UnNethack (http://un.nethack.nu). The current official
public server is great and runs wonderfully thanks to the hard work
and support of octe and bhaak, but trans-Atlantic latency to the
Amazon datacenter has been spotty lately.

I offered my server for use and octe was able to hop in and get
everything set up with a quickness. Currently, all stats, ttyrecs, and
gamedumps are shared between the two servers. All of your games on the
US server will be stored and accessed from the primary server website
(http://un.nethack.nu) and your games will be announced in the
#unnethack channel on irc.freenode.org.

The only catch is that none of the accounts from the current server
were imported to the US server, so if you want to play on this server,
you'll need to register.

The address for the server is: us.un.nethack.nu and the old server is
eu.un.nethack.nu. Please be aware that the EU server will still
continue to resolve for un.nethack.nu, so if you want to play on the
US server you'll need to specify the correct address.

Thanks again to octe for the awesome work. Hope to see you guys
playing unnethack soon!
