I did minor modifications like this and the new nation names from following patches to the program but I stopped attaching it because it seemed like nobody was using the program anymore and somebody else wrote a new program in Python, Wraithlord I think.
That's exactly what I found when I dug into it further. I didn't know it was because of the new nation limit, but I did find it was exactly 15 offset from where it was before.

Thanks for confirming that.

I did go ahead and make a new version. I'll post it here and in the mod thread in case anyone wants to use it.

Monitor Lizard .9

Main features are that it is now multi threaded, so it pings multiple servers at once, minimizes to the systray and can be set to ping servers automatically. It requires .Net 3.5.

Thanks,
Matt
