Please answer these questions of mine -
Stackoverflow -
mysql date time indexes not applying for some specific date ranges
How to find the absolute path of a node (file or directory) in this file system model (Interesting question!)
Need help? Have some questions that I may answer?
Is nobody answering your question? If you feel I may be able to answer any of your questions, mail me the link of your question. My mail ID is sandeepan (dot) nits (at) google's mail.
I like trying to answer those questions which are generally skipped by many highly reputated guys here lol. Sometimes they skip them because they don't have time to read long questions. I like attempting such questions and I think that could be my trick to earn reputation.
I am also active in many SE sites like programmers.SE, gaming.SE, onstartups.SE, etc. Send me questions!!
About me
I am a Software Developer/Designer from India. Here is my Brief Résumé on Stackoverflow Careers. Contact me at sandeepan (dot) nits (at) google's mail.
Other than programming I have deep interests in Human Psychology, Entrepreneurship, Social work and Scientific Research. While younger I had deep interests in Genetics, Astronomy etc.
I love computer games, especially FPS games on multi-player, cricket, music, racing and adventure.
I am a 24 years old guy and as time is passing by, I am gradually coming to realize that there are so many things to see and do in this beautiful world. I am afraid that a few years down the line I will repent over so many things I wished to do but could not do. However, I have started serious planning for all this.
I don't think it is necessary to grow old to gain experience, wealth and power. Well, don't get me wrong, wealth and power are not the only things I am after but these are needed to do great things, at least they make things easier.

Ideas or solutions to resolve the issue of absence of Local-Dedicated-Public multiplayer gaming servers It was difficult to decide. Bounty awarded to @Garet Claborn due his extra effort and for giving me some ideas to think, basically due to the thought process. But can't decide the best answer yet. I guess P2P with partial centralization kind of thing, if possible, will favor those with limited budget. |

Ideas or solutions to resolve the issue of absence of Local-Dedicated-Public multiplayer gaming servers @Garet Claborn - I understand that you don't know about this particular game's server mechanics but what general approach would you suggest to proceed with this? Should the game's API be searched for? What if no APIs are available? How difficult would all this be? I still think your answer deserves the bounty but I will wait for some more time. |

Ideas or solutions to resolve the issue of absence of Local-Dedicated-Public multiplayer gaming servers Also, is it like these are two different ways - 1. going for P2P - getting a really nice internet connection and a few computers to run servers on. 2. renting a dedicated or VPS server? |

Ideas or solutions to resolve the issue of absence of Local-Dedicated-Public multiplayer gaming servers Thanks for your answer. I guess the P2P architecture with partial centralization is something in between - A peer-to-peer system of nodes without central infrastructure (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:P2P-network.svg) and Centralized server-based service model (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/…). But could you please explain how is it going to help. I was not very good in these subjects during college but now I can understand better because I am very passionate about doing this. Any useful links? |
