Founder, developer and supportBaurtock is the pseudonym of the founder of 1up-servers. He designs and writes the platform, looks after the game nodes in London and Paris, answers the support tickets and the Discord, and writes the guides on this blog. 1up started from a simple idea: anyone should be able to launch a game server for their friends without renting a machine or reading a manual. Every guide here is written around the same panel he builds every day.
