Game Name, Number of Players, and Ping:

- Filtering by Number of Players show all sessions with at least that many players. A filter of '6' will show games with (for example) 6/8, 10/24, and 15/40.
- Filtering by Ping shows all sessions with a ping value less than or equal to the ping specified. Number of players and Ping both start off at the most permissive values possible, 0 and 9999 respectively. Set the filter values to these values for the equivalent of 'All'.
- Filtering by Game Name shows game names containing what is entered. Entering "Dedicated" without quotes) in the Game
Name filter will show (for example) "Lucasarts Dedicated Server", "Pandemic T1 Dedicated", or "John's Non-Dedicated
Home Server". To clear this filter, delete the text that was entered in this box.
- Filters are cumulative -- if you change the Map filter to 'Hoth' and the Ping filter to '200', it will show servers which match BOTH of those filters.
