The only answers I have are to #4 and 5..

4. Server 2 was origionally the test server for server 1.
5. When server 1 became more popular, DW decided to open server 2 to the public because server 1 was always full.

Answers:
1. Server one was made shortly before January 10, 2006.

2. Clan DW was originally a competitive clan in ONS, however it is very tiring to play ONS nonstop due to intense teamwork & competition. Several DW's (like Cheapshot) were playing Unreal Insanity as a place to relax & enjoy the simple gametype of RPG invasion. Things were going well for awhile, however people were getting disappointed due to lack of communication (ie: they don't know where their donations were going). Some also whisper tales that their hardware was failing.

Such people got tired of this & threatened to create their own invasion server....Still no reply in the forums...soooo DW created Monster Mash & placed UI outta business lol.

3. Many people were involved of the creation of Monster Mash... In fact basically everyone! :cheers:

4. Some time early of April 2008

5. Mentioned above by Watty ^.^

No, UI went down first, and the MM server was started in response to that.

I believe this was a regular Invasion server. RPG Invasion server 1 went live in January of 2007 (see description of MM servers on Game Tracker page). It was created, tweeked, and toyed with in the final months of 2006.

Thats when I wrote on sonic's forum that he should tell others if a server is down, what is going on, as I thought it was gone for good.... Thats when I decided I would try to get a similar invasion going that had some likeness to the UI's one, at first I wanted a near clone of what he had done, then as time went by, it become something totally different from UI's server.

Yeah not too sure on that myself. I started playing on this server in February 2007 after Reflex615 told me about it. I was a regular on UI then and it was still up and running.
