We are mainly headquartered in the east US, with bases spread throughout the central US and all the way south to North Carolina and Florida, as well as a lone, remote outpost in eastern Canada. Our strong bonds of friendship grew in the trenches of battle in Team Fortress 2, with members spanning all walks of life: Network and IT specialists, programmers, future educators, brokers, the mechanically-adept, artists, full-time academics, and even a part-time SCA-nerd and fire-breather! As time passed and the gibs dispelled, STNO branched off with strong commitments to Day of Defeat: Source and Left 4 Dead. Currently, we manage a 32 player TF2 server, "<a title="STNO's TF2 Server" href="http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/69.12.76.78:27015/">STNO's Corner Penthouse of Spook Central-FAST DL/Respawn</a>," a 32 player DoD:S server, "<a title="STNO's DoD:S Server" href="http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/72.94.249.58:27015/">STNO's DoD Server</a>," and a few dedicated L4D servers.<br /><br />STNO encourages you to join and play on our game servers, <a title="Register" href="phpbb/ucp.php?mode=register">register</a> and participate in our community, and to have a fun and responsible gaming experience that is douchebag- and asshat-free!</p> STNO: Mediocrity gets renewed and improved (BETA 2.0)! http://www.stnoclan.com/index.php?permalink=59 http://www.stnoclan.com/index.php?permalink=59 Thu, 27 Nov 2008 20:00:20 CST <p>As you can all see, our new and improved website is finally up and running!
