The thing about the dedicated server? Well it looks like I found a bit of a loophole this year with port registration and well, I can host the server so long as I'm at college, so no to the server from October 14th to October 25th, but I shall have it running after that point whenever I'm awake and don't need to use my laptop for class. We have a few stats too for ping (consider the equal distance if this is hosted in Worcester, Massachusetts):

New England: 5-25ms ping
to midwest: 30-50ms ping
to west coast: 40-55ms ping
to western Europe: 85+ms ping

I will shut down the server however if the bandwidth goes above 7gb that day and it shall start back up sometime the following afternoon.
