For english people:

As you may know Nadeo has a Guinnes World Record, because in April 2008 were playing 250 players together on one server at the same time!
And this record we want to break!
We will host a server with max. 1000 slots and our personal aim is that there are playing 400 players at the same time.
The World Rekord begins:
19.7.2008
Between 14 and 16 hour
You will find the server in Germany and it called:
=ToY= Shortmap
The World Record rating will be at 15:30 (MEZ/CST, which means=UTC/GMT+1)

We hope you will be there and it will be a big party for all of us!!

For German's:

Wie ihr bestimmt wisst, hat Nadeo einen Guinnes World Rekord, und zwar das auf dem Nadeo Server 250 Leute gleichzeitig gespielt haben.
Diesen wollen wir übertreffen und mit mindestens 400 Leuten gleichzeitig spielen, der server wird ein maximal slot haben von 1000 Slots, die wie ich hoffe am besten maximal ausgefüllt werden^^
Also Leute das ganze findet am Samstag dem 19.7.2008 zwischen 14-16 Uhr statt und bitte rührt die werbetrommeln!!!!!
Server wird sein unser =ToY= Shortmap server in
NRW -> Düsseldorf....
Die Messung wird um 15:30 Sein (mittel europäische zeit)

REMINDER *2 DAYS TO GO*

I told myself I'd come online (and probably be the worst racer), but... I'm going on vacation this weekend, will be gone for two weeks.
Oh well!
Everybody else have fun breaking the record though; don't forget!

People dont forget to turn of p2p downloads and custom car skins ! ALso use O to hide other cars. Bcause in a such a large server the lag just makes ur computer go crazy.
Also, is this even possible ? A server can only support 255 players...
I used to know why it was 255...forgot it though

It's the whole the base 2 aspect of computers.
"Round" numbers are 2^2 (aka 4), 2^3 (8), 2^4 (16)...
If you keep doubling, you get 32, 64, 128, 256.
You'll also often see 255 because counting starts with 0 instead of 1.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_numeral_system

Probably a good tip about disabling custom content.
