Does anyone rent a game server? If you do, what game is it for?

YeOldeStonecat was running game servers a few years back, and a couple of other members, not sure if anyone is running one these days though.

I used to run one at my shop. Still have the server, just don't do anything with it now. Going to make it a Sardu rig one of these days.

SARDU is MultiBoot Creator. I will install it and use it to make multiboot USB drives. I also add tools/office that I use.

I just use Rufus, or some similar tool to create bootable USBs. If I must have running Windows on a USB stick, I usually go to small external SSDs, as USB flash drives can be painfully slow.
