With the 5.68e10 channels, this is about how it would pan out...

If we wanted to dominate just about every channel in two weeks, the server would have to tolerate 47000 channel requests/second (and we would have to put up that kind of bandwidth), or 4700 per person, which translates out to 423 kilobytes per second for each of us. That wouldn't happen without installing rootkits of a few hapless Windoze boxes and stealing their bandwidth, and Ambrosia upping their bandwidth (they wouldn't be able to handle 423 kilobytes/second). A total takeover of all channels with eight chars in that space of time would require 1.62e9 kilobits/second. I pull 160/second down, and can put significantly less up. Taking out #att, #ares, #<classified>, #omg, #ev, #ev3, #halo, #<classified>, #ev4, and a few other registered channels would not significantly decrease that load. This also assumes that nobody disconnects in that space of time.

This assumes that we are joining the channels 24/7. Now, to register them, we would need to send "/msg chanserv register #****** xxxxxx", then "/msg chanserv set guard #****** on", then "/msg chanserv akick #****** *". If we want a stronger password, we would need to turn up our bandwidth a bit.

So no taking over every possible hiding spot in two weeks.

Most "fallback" channels, and other channels, have at least seven characters.

I can put up 3MB/sec easily, but I don't think ASW can handle that, and I don't want to join 50000 channels/second, my computer can't handle that. They'd probably just ban your ip address, or at the least, internet routers/irc server would use a built in flood control to stem the tide of requests.

Is that megabit/second or megabyte/second? My calculations were in megabytes/second.

If we were to have a prayer of doing this, we would need zombie boxes.

Guys, while you were dicking around, a bunch of ops popped up in #ev3.

It only takes one op to go on a banning spree. No, we're going to have to wait for the place to be completely devoid (sans Operserv) of green dots.

Meh, we can always just get a bunch of zombies PCs in #ev3, claim they're affiliated with us, give them some bot personalities, and outnumber the real #ev3ers.

Ops didn't stop D-Day from happening. Mass bannings only add to the glory, go for it now. :P

We also need to be able to flood the thing without getting killed by the server.

You can't flood an IRC server that's actually a Mac Mini without blowing the thing up.

You can if the ircd is running natively.

A Mac mini can barely host a game of Halo, why would it be able to host that many hits per second?

Because that many hits/second involves no graphics work whatsoever.

I'd think he would have a quad-core G5 to use for that.

naw, he's hardcore. He's probably pimped out some unfortunate Quadra for that.

You need one of those QuadDoubler cards, plus at least 48 megs of RAM. 64 is enough for most things Avara.
