How is it decided which server we play on.
Whenever we face Non-Europeans we ALWAYS get 216(american servers), this might be because we have an American player in the team, is there any way we get atleast equall the chances of the servers? (let him play on an European bought acc? for example`?)
How is the 206 and 216 servers decided?

Highest average ping team gets their home server

Ah, so if i before the gvg starts, start to download like RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO to get 45k ping, would that mean it would be a bigger chance for me to then get the homeserver?

They don't measure average ping of players, it's impossible to manipulate the system with upping your ping to any servers.
Players are simply assigned to regions and system counts how many players from which region there are, and if the number is equal it's random 50/50.

I still wonder how they assign a territory to your account.

Way back when, you either had an American acct or a Euro acct and you could swap territories :P I'm pretty sure it assigns your territory based on where you say you live now, and all other accts are in the territory they last switched to before the update/introduction of open districts.

* The wiki thing didnt really say much^^
* Okey, so its based on where u live?, So there is no way to manipulate this (without some advanced IP shizzle)?
Guild Wars game servers are divided into territories that correspond roughly to areas of the real world
So GW decides your territory by how where u are the time

I'm assuming it's based on where you buy your account. Or if it asks you where you're located when you make a new account, it's probably based on that too.
You IP doesn't matter, I have an american friend with a Euro account because he changed territory before the update.
Also, server is decided on the majority of players I think. And if it's 8/8 on each team it's a coin-flip.

Well, thx for all the answer
Mkay ill try give my american a euro-acc and we might be able to play some early-time gvg on euro servers, or atleast get a 50-50 chance
So its based on WHERE you bought the acc?
