Logie Bear in his Williams has outqualified Checo 6 times.

For serveme SEA (OVH Singapore), your ISP, which is also my ISP, routes through Los Angeles for the return journey. This leads to a ~300ms scoreboard ping.
With SDR, this drops to 195ms for me.

For serveme AU (OVH Sydney), again it gets routed through LA, both directions this time. 330ms scoreboard ping.
With SDR, this drops to 284ms for me.

Record a video with net_graph 5 enabled when it happens.

yes

It's insane for sure

Like looking at a magician sawing a lady in half and thinking they can do surgery.

Is it really koth_clearcut_b15d? The RGL custom maps and server configs page mentions koth_clearcut_b16a, even though it links to a download of b15d :)

The 64 bit TF2 update broke servers in a few ways. We've tried switching all our servers to 64-bit, but there are quite a few missing 64-bit extensions for competitive play at the moment.

So we're sticking with 32-bit servers for now, you can just connect with your 64-bit client to those. Almost everything seems to work, apart from automatic whitelist updating/downloading.

We don't have a feature that blocks API keys (we're fully open source, it doesn't exist), if you can see an API key in your serveme settings, you can use it. We do have a Discord, you could have contacted us like the other PUG sites and projects if you were having issues.

Having enough servers available for a PUG service (for $3/month for as many servers as you need I might add) is a solved problem in the EU, NA, SEA and AU regions. So seeing PUGs limited or unavailable on a new service due to lack of servers makes me sad.

This API is now a decade old and TF2Center has been running pugs without extra requirements. You can have a TF2Center game on a stock TF2 server as long as it has the map you're trying to play.
The other services don't require custom plugins, but even so, the previous incarnation of RGL pugs had a working serveme.tf API integration and their own custom plugin installed on all na.serveme.tf servers for stuff like team and nickname management.

Meanwhile at TF2Center, TF2Pugs and TF2Pickup......

OK great, unbanned.

Here's a random free tip. If you have an RGL ban for racism, harassment and ban evasion, and regularly try to play with VPNs on my service....don't pretend you are part of a group that is banned for racism, harassment and ban evasion that regularly tries to play with VPNs on my service.

Thank you for this post and 2 more cheeto alt bans from anything I control.

To make it, sure, to get it signed by Valve so it can be used on VAC servers, probably not. You'd also be looking for someone to ingest 12-18x the amount of data demos.tf gets.

Before his steam account got posthumously community-banned, every once in a while I'd see "hospital wifi" in my friends list, last online, years ago. Sobering as that was, it did have this avatar :)
