deadlands freezing game...

For some reason when i try joining my favorite server,i get the cannot connect message,i click the ok box and lose my mouse cursor and have to use task manager to close the game.II don't know if this is a server thing( @Absalom ) or a game thing( @red51 )...........PASTEBIN log
i normally have no issues connecting to this server,also i am able to connect to other servers.

sorry to pester but please see pastebin above @red51 and @Absalom still doing the above
last few lines of log just now:
Connect to win.thedeadlands.net:30500 - Playername: Owner
SEVERE: Unable to connect to server (IP: win.thedeadlands.net, Port: 30,500)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><risingworld-server version="0.5.1.3"><servername>The Deadlands</servername><serverip>win.thedeadlands.net</serverip><serverport>30500</serverport><playercount>8</playercount><maxplayercount>64</maxplayercount><whitelisted>false</whitelisted><locked>false</locked><lua>true</lua></risingworld-server>

ive noticed a difference here in the server properties file:
win.thedeadlands.net:30500
98.122.172.184:4265
23.21.99.18:4255
risingworld.zaplabs.com:4255
192.185.83.12
192.185.83.12:80
192.185.83.12:4255
win.thedeadlands.net:30700
5.1.80.239:4255

I apologize @red51 and @Absalom i cleared the contents of that file and am now connected. .maybe you can add something in code to remove these files automatically?

also @red51 when a server is saved to favorites,it doesn't refresh with current server info when logging back in to the game.

haha I'm dumb*runs away*
*runs back*.....well I'm back to square one.i can join every other server but the deadlands.joining it freezes the game and I have to fc the game via task manager.....this is starting to frustrate me because their doesn't seem to be a legitimate reason for it.anywhere!

marking this as solved being that steam was the issue and has since been fixed.so far

this same problem has re-surfaced..now last time it was a steam issue....just letting you know @red51 looks like its back again.

well it seems okay now.

update time @Absalom

alright...it's doing it again.i can t on any other server except this one.like usual i get a connection error after 10-30 minutes...after several times of getting back in,it now just freezes the client like before. @Absalom and/or @red51

EDIT: is it possible that one gets timed out or locked out after so many log in attempts?

today's log for the connection error/freezing the game @red51
pastebin

alright will do
