Australian Servers

Being in New Zealand would the connection be alot better? I play on US and EU servers, my connection is really bad, since australia is the closest country to NZ will the connections get better?

I was just talking to ChadTheDJ and he would like us to ping this IP Address: 216.12.196.114
Please keep in mind that ChadTheDJ's budget can only afford 1 Australasian server at the moment. This server may not be introduced very soon but please realise that ChadTheDJ is very busy and is paying a lot more money to help protect the current servers from the attacks, and above all that, Australasian servers are A LOT of money.
How to ping? (for windows)

1. Hold down your
   
   and press the 'R' key.
2. Type in cmd and press enter.
3. Once cmd.exe is running, type in "ping 216.12.196.114" (without the quotation marks) and press enter.
4. Please post what ping you received and where you live in the comments. For example, "I live in Central Queensland and I received 160ms ping to 216.12.196.114."

Thank you.

To test ping in the eu and us servers do the same steps but instead of 216.12.196.114 put in eu1.mcsg.in or us1.mcsg.in etc (it does work i tested it)
