YMMV - whats that then?

I've started to put all the best AQ2 server addresses in the .cfg file
(set adr#), so if 'shit map syndrome' crops up, its easy to find a new
home fast.

However, there are more than 8 decent servers.  If I just keep on adding
them beyond adr7, does Q2 refresh all the ones specified and display the
fastest, or does it ignore any over adr7?

TIAAWA,
