Change:

motd=Whatever your current name is

To:

motd=GameTrackerClaimServer

In your server properties.

Restart it?

If not, did you enter the motd more than once?

If not, you can contact your server provider and ask what is going on with their hosting.

You should only have one line in the properties for motd, so take the second, third, etc lines for "motd" out and just have one motd setting.

once your server claim is approved you need to rename it back to your preferred server name, like "pedr0x's Mine" maybe. make sure you save all your configuration files properly. continue to keep your server online with that name for about 5 minutes and check back the server list page if the server name has changed. if not close and restart the server with the same ip:port address, with the same preferred name and yeah wait another 5 minutes and check back the server list page.

Yeah, I will do that, but just more 1 question, do I need to change the Name and the Motd to GameTrackerClaimServer or just the motd ?
