Add me to the list of people that think this is a good idea. A drop down list showing the last 'x' most recent IP addresses would be best, but at the least, it should populate the field with the last IP address used.

I am for this idea! I already have alfex's number memorized Laughing but it would be nice to save some screen taps. If you added up the time it took to tap in an ip address say, four times a day for a whole year. Shocked

What about something like battle.net or gamespy on the palm/pocketpc that would automatically search for the servers instead of a frequently used list Very Happy

Bad idea moveit. We are not a server, just a player like you willing to host games sometimes. We do not want our IP hit continuously searching to see if we are on. We don't mind at all if individuals search for us... we want you to do that Very Happy But I have a feeling that if our ISP got huge quantities of hits we'd be getting a bill.

But I definitely think it would be great to have a drop down list of previously typed ip numbers. That shouldn't be too hard, huh Scott? Idea

Your IP would only get queried if you WERE running an open server at the time. There would need to be a master list of running servers.
