<span style="color:red">If you don't have gamesurge.</span>

This is the easy way to add gamesurge to the networks you can connect to.

Browse to your Mirc directory.

Add a line to the very end of servers.ini like so:
n354=GameSurge: Random serverSERVER:irc.gamesurge.net:6667GROUP:GameSurge
Where 354 is the next number (ie. the one before in this case is 353).

Then you can set it to automatically connect to gamesurge instead of gamesnet in Options&gt;Connect&gt;Servers.

Others are (I guessed at what the abbrieviations meant):
n355=GameSurge: Random US serverSERVER:irc.us.gamesurge.net:6667GROUP:GameSurge
n356=GameSurge: Random European serverSERVER:irc.eu.gamesurge.net:6667GROUP:GameSurge
n357=GameSurge: Random Canadian serverSERVER:irc.ca.gamesurge.net:6667GROUP:GameSurge
I don't know what &quot;au&quot; is, probably Australian, but the pattern is clear now, so I'll leave it at that.

If you made your authentication gamesnet specific, you now have to go back into perform (for mIRC version 6.x: Options&gt;Connect&gt;Options then push Perform...), copy your old one, add a new specific perform for gamesurge, paste it, and change services.gamesnet.net to services.gamesurge.net
