Trivia

Because the Tribes 1 master servers had been working intermittently, they went down on 14th December 2005, with no news if they would ever come back up. Members of the community have taken it upon themselves to host a new Master Server. ZedRWX is currently running one at alpha.primehosting.us:28000
