Thanks to ozfortress, au.serveme.tf is back :) Starting out with 12 gameservers.

More info on how and why in these two blogposts.

Please don't use that. It's unmaintained and not user friendly. I just wrote it for myself because it was something interesting for VanillaTV at the time, so that's some indication of how old it is ;)

"If Coyo invites you to a private sexy maid session at i69, don't go"

People from Russia and Belarus can make reservations on the site again. Just tick the "I am not a vatnik" box and you're good to go.

I was at MasterNoob's this summer and we discussed it, not as in me buying it, just my thoughts on him pulling the plug.

He's been looking for someone to take over and buy the whole thing for a while because he hasn't had the same interest in the site as he once had.

You're not going to like the price.

How did you match the demos.tf URL with the logs.tf log?

Asking for a friend.

Are you plugged into the back panel or front panel? Have you tried both?

If you're not using the front panel, consider unplugging the HD Audio front-panel plug from your motherboard.

Not sure where you're getting that nonsense from, but it's actually because I haven't updated the Stripe credit card integration to fully comply with new EU laws. Some banks require those updated rules (e.g. 3dsecure), causing failed payment attempts. Your bank blocking your card because of that, is between you and your bank.
You can use paypal instead for now.

Some of my server providers are beginning to raise their prices. Inflation, energy costs, price gauging, etc....

Luckily servers have been getting faster, faster, than TF2 has gotten slower, so with some shuffling of gameservers and new contracts on more price-efficient machines, it doesn't look like we have to raise prices in response.
In EU, we are getting rid of the most price inefficient machine from one provider (HelmutBrigade, per december 2022). This won't matter as there is more capacity than needed in that region and from that server provider.

We've made one QoL improvement (suggestion from JackyLegs). The map selector now has a little section at the top with maplists for the main leagues (ETF2L, RGL, UGC), showing the maps they currently use per gametype. This way you won't have to guess which exact map version you're supposed to play.

That's hilarious, more reason to bring it back really.

From memory, but it's been a while:

• Getting teams to join, sometimes on short notice
  
• Finding a Mumble server location that both teams won't hate due to ping and routing reasons
  
• Trusting teams not to use certain words that get you in trouble with Twitch
  
• Having someone host and babysit the mumble delay bots (also fix mumble flood protection settings so the bots can mass join)
  
• Dealing with desyncs during pauses. The delay bots are out of sync as soon as a pause starts until 90 seconds after the unpause.
  
• Getting casters to use the comms during interesting moments, breaking up their flow / desire to talk

Thank you sigafoo <3

Good luck Taylor
