Hmm, my civserver doesn't have this -q option. But I found that
public civservers aren't such a great idea since it's better to
run ones own server which allows one to save and restore games.

[bernhard@b freeciv-1.11.4]$ civserver -q 500
Error: unknown option '-q'
This is the server for Freeciv version 1.11.4
