one of the problems which were in the community was lack of access to cheat feed as some orgs kept it for themselves only, most of them are closed source so you must be friends with them in order to use them
most of them because Arie's cheatfeed which code is 10 years old is still working and some time ago I did some effort in making it more accessible, so now you can self-host it thru Docker which makes it easy to set up anywhere you want including LAN use, which was one of my goals for poLANd.tf 2024 #winter
https://github.com/Arie/tf2_live_stats
I host my own instance but since the codebase is old and probably a bit insecure I don't share access to it publicly but it's super easy to make it work on your own
so now only producers need to make a change (if they want to, big if)

i played on tf2lobby and it was indeed a ground breaking change from pugging on IRC, sadly I don't remember the stack
I remember tho that this site has this "seized by USA something" replacement page when someone does some illegal activity in the web like FTX being a scam recently and that's how this site died basically
tf2center is written in java (cannot disclose what version) if that helps
ETF2L is written in php with ETF2L API v1 being written in Perl
also from early stuff serveme.tf is still up and it's written in Ruby

tf2pickup.org project as far as i know does not need any changes to work
for tf2 servers, srcds (basically source server, what we use to run tf2 servers) will be delivered as a 64-bit thing, meaning stuff relying on it will have to be modified (for example mały's melkortf/tf2-servers Docker images), but things don't have to be rewritten from scratch, in some project there has to be some changes indeed like steph mentioned STAC, but in most of them it's a matter of recompiling it for 64-bit x86 architecture (aka x86_64) and replacing files with the new ones

i did tests on the same demo you did

hello everyone

participant changes
as you already know, we have a team change from tf2easy BLACK to POUNDLAN

format change
we have decided to change the event format; from now on 12 teams qualify to the play-offs, the top 8 teams from the groups will start in the upper bracket and the next 4 will start in the lower bracket
thanks to your feedback, we will also have a b-tournament so you can stay sweaty until the end of the event and even if you get knocked out there, you still can play LAN pickups powered by tf2pickup.org

merch
moreover, we have opened our merch on which you can find cool designs prepared for you by @zuri_el and @de.li and honestly I already bought one
we offer t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies, also we sell stickers and pins with cool tf2-related arts made by @zuri_el
currently we offer delivery on LAN, without shipping, we may change it in the future, orders can be done until 12.02.2024 12:00 CET
buying our products support future LANs made by us
you can find the shop at https://merch.poland.tf

somehow this time thru a friend the author listened to my screams and he published P-REC source: https://github.com/olegKoshmeliuk/Pov-Record
that means we can get it to work ourselves with 64-bit tf2 and make it work with ready up mvm mode so it could work on pickups too or have other problems resolved
edit: Orange also added an MIT license meaning we can already do the work and he offered support if someone takes the challenge of making things work/bugfixing/rewriting as long as his name is kept as the original author

by checking his liquipedia page he's Leo but i can get why you've assessed him like this, i think we all know

well it's supposed to be available first on linux but then on windows too meaning pretty much all players will gain (probably a lot of) performance from that sooner or later
