Hermann_von_SalsaSmin2017 Saxxy Awards with a due date in 2018? Well played valve
I assume it was Update's fault why it's so late
Tho it's still kinda dissapointing :/
It would probably be the fault of their Lincoln Square Expansion move in September, which would've been about when they would've announced it in past years. By the way, now that they're there, the Best Overall winners will be the first winners to see the new space.

TF2 & SFM TeamIt's time to announce the Saxxy Awards for 2017, and we couldn't be more excited!
We can't wait to see what variety of amazing videos you create! Don't forget that all Valve universes are available for use, and SFM shorts that were submitted to the Dota Short Film Contest are also eligible for this year's Saxxy Awards. The submission deadline is March 8th, 2018, but as always, we'd like to remind you that you can upload non-final versions up to a week in advance of the final deadline, to guard against last-minute computer failures, internet outages, YouTube login problems, etc.
Check out the guidelines for details on the rules and deadlines, and get your entries ready!
Via HLDS:
Valve- Added the Chapelaria 6v6 Season 3 tournament medals
- Contract loaner items no longer have an expiration date
- Players viewing their ConTracker can no longer move or attack

- Updated the materials for Mandrew's Munificent Mug
Rumor has it:
- Australians, if you were having issues with the Sydney cluster being offline, some IPs were swapped around in the Steam Datagram system configuration. Give it another try, they should be back in functioning order again
- What you see above is what you're getting - no hidden tricks in this one
- Size is ~15 MB
Via the CS:GO blog:
Valve[ AUDIO ]
-Made bomb plant and bomb defuse sounds more audible with sound occlusion on.
-Fixed an exploit that allowed ambient sounds to be completely disabled.
[ MISC ]
-Re-enabled SSE4 optimizations for string tables and added -nosse4 command line option to disable SSE4.
-“find” console command now allows specifying multiple search strings. For example, “find decal r_” will find commands and variables that contain both “r_” and “decal”.
Rumor has it:
- To fix the ambient sounds issue, the scripts to control them have been moved into the VPK file structure to make them protected by sv_pure (and they got extension changes too)
- Size is ~20 MB
Via the CS:GO blog:
Valve[ AUDIO ]
– Improved performance of 3D audio. Positional audio is much more responsive when turning quickly.
[ War Games ]
– Players can now select from 3 maps during end-of-match voting in War Games.
– Added convars controlling end of match voting setup to simplify management of War Games community servers.
[ Misc ]

– Smoothed out game server hitching when a new player connects and downloads initial game state.
– Fixed occasional crash affecting official game servers.

– SSE4 optimizations in network string tables to reduce server hitches on connection of new player.
– Console output of the game server can now be timestamped using “con_timestamp” convar.
[ TRUST FACTOR ]
– Updated trust algorithm based on data and feedback.
To help us further improve the Trust Factor, send us an email at CSGOTeamFeedback@valvesoftware.com with the subject “Trust Factor Feedback” and include a description of your experience and your Steam ID.
Rumor has it:
- Looks like we're getting Series 3 pins at some point: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-CSGO/commit/c096a217e607242f7ab687a3a24ac8df7134525f
- New pins include:
- Guardian 3 Pin
- Canals Pin
- Welcome to the Clutch Pin
- Death Sentence Pin
- Inferno 2 Pin
- Wildfire Pin
- Easy Peasy Pin
- Aces High Pin
- Hydra Pin
- Howl Pin
- Brigadier General Pin
- Unfortunately, no images have been included for these in the files or in the item schema, so we don't know what they look like until Valve releases them somewhere, but I'm sure your imagination will give you a good idea of what will be the real thing in the meantime. Sorry!

Notifications are going out in-game too, probably related.

- Images of the medals themselves:
Mandrew's Munificent Mug:

Rumor has it:
- Scroll down for the updated Skill Group icons, and select Swipe or Onion Skin to scroll between two versions of them: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-CSGO/commit/5508e947ccb108476ac97d78a78ffd7c37f7ea71

Stochast1cCornpop16wickedplayer494- Scream Fortress IX continues for a little while longer, but get a move on! Expiry dates have been added to the contracts in the ConTracker.
Anyone know what these dates are? I've been stuffed with midterms the past 3 weeks so haven't been able to do too many. Last midterm's tomorrow tho so hopfully still time for me to grind them out.contractsExpires 2017-11-09 00:00:00
No idea what timezone they are referring to, probably PT, so they really didn't extend it that much.
Just found out it's based on system time. You can set it back a day and the game won't even question it even if you do it while it's running.
