NOTE: this isn't a full blown guide with specifics, treat it as a check list.

Prerequisites:
	1. You need to have admin access to all routers between your server and your modem (most people only have 1 router)
	2. You need to be an admin on your server-hosting machine, or have someone who is an admin present

Step #1:
	Set a static IP - Windows: http://bit.ly/1pQNEa1
					- OSX: http://bit.ly/25ztSEf
					- Debian/Ubuntu: http://bit.ly/22AkjDe

Step #2:
	Port forward port 25565 on both UDP and TCP to your newly set static IP address - http://bit.ly/Kfd8ya

Step #3:
	Repeat step #2 for each router in between your PC and the internet, if there is more than one.

Step #4:
	Add your static IP to the "server-ip=" section of your server's server.properties.

Step #5:
	Distribute your external IP to players - IPChicken.com


If you've completed all steps on this list and it still doesn't work, then is your time to post on the forums, but not before.
