Bahhahahaha. After watching the 45 minute video of people playing this; I want a goddamn elevator source server. So many people wouldn't of played it before and the reactions would be priceless everytime.

Basically it's a Gmod gamemode, where you all board an elevator, and ride it; visiting strange rooms you don't want to get off on, the rooms AI's get on your elevator, the one's where they get off, and so on.. I think at the end you can play pool, watch youtube on the TV, play slot machines and other stuff. :l

Exactly; it'd be a hilarious and easy to manage server. Many people would join out of curiousity, and if we have funny players on; it might encourage them to join the community! I don't know, but it would be a fun idea; if we could throw one on the box I'd be glad to play/admin.

Edit: I'm pretty sure admins would be useless; honestly this is a game you where the worst thing a player could do is micspam/be offensive/annoying. The game looks so fun though :3

I played it for a while, sadly no mic on the server, but it was fun.  Garry's head was on fire, he was on the elevator with us.  We then got to the lobby, blended bleach and beer together, and watched youtube vids.  I'd play it lol.

Ive played this. I found it extremely boring, Unless u like (sitting in an elevator for 90 minutes waiting floor by floor until you reach the top floor, where there is absolutely nothing fun to do) then i would not recommend this.

It's sort of like a chatroom, you have to be able to socialize, otherwise it's no fun.

if we can find people to  donate enough money to get a 6 month prepaid subscription for a 24 slot server we could make this happen

A ten slot or so would be fine really, 24 would be insane and nobody would be able to hear lol So that's why I figured this game could do well on the serverbox, fairly little stress from the players and lag shouldn't alter gameplay too bad at all..

Watched Smiffy do this at his house, found it odd yet quite interesting.

I can vouch that people will play this, Smiffy would probably be happy.

If someone has $42 I can put up a 8 slot gmod server for this for 6 months all paid for

anyone want to donate specifically to the cause?


If someone donates $42 or two people donate $20 we can have this

If anyone ever DDOS'd an elevator server.. they're something special. But I'm sure it could happen; but couldn't it on most games we have on the box?

CG lost like $150 or some from gmod servers beign attacked and no gmod is something extra special

gmod servers will never be on the serverbox ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever again

unless you want a $1,000 tab for going over the bandwidth and the constant hassle of having our ip null routed and all the servers offline
