Here's the RGB LAN medals, 1st to 3rd Place and Participant:
Chapelaria Ultiduo medals, in the same order:
Mappers vs. Machines Participant:
It should go without saying by this point that ETF2L medal images and models are recycled, and the same is true for the 2nd season of Chapelaria 6v6.

CS:GO update for 4/12/17 (4/13/17 UTC, 1.35.7.4)
in
CS2 General Discussion
Via the CS:GO blog:
Valve[CSGO]
– Added Holiday Cheer.
[GAMEPLAY]
– For a limited time, the Negev and R8 Revolver are available in Competitive Matchmaking.
– R8 Revolver: Price reduced to 700
– Negev: Price reduced to 2000 as a starting point, to promote experimentation with the weapon.
[AUDIO]
– Volume now decays smoothly over distance, instead of by discrete steps.
– Adjusted HRTF audio mix to more closely match sound quality without HRTF.
– Added snd_hrtf_distance_behind (default 100), which allows HRTF to more closely match the perceived direction of a sound source as seen by the actual player behind a monitor.
– Fixed a bug where music volume would be set to the maximum level while accepting a lobby invitation.
[SERVERS]
– Added support for official game servers in Guangzhou and Shanghai for the Perfect World CS:GO Beta.
[MISC]
– Added Team ID option “Always On w/Equipment” to Game Settings
– Spectators can now use overhead equipment display.
– Fixed overhead equipment display not updating in some cases.
– Fixed orientation of stickers on dropped weapons.
– Adding Game State Integration output for use by tournament organizers. New output for player equipment value (with log_level 3), showing the observer slot for each player and adding a new ‘PhaseCountdowns’ feed for timing the end of warmup/freezetime/round ends.
Rumor has it:
- Mac OS X/macOS users may have broken audio after this update. Consider using Boot Camp for now if you already have a Windows installation set up through Boot Camp
- Chickens now have bunny hats, and when they're scared, they now drop easter eggs (thanks to /u/TheCowYT for the video):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnxFsAyGYxk
- Ahead of the now imminent release of CS:GO in China (with publishing handled by Perfect World), the Cartel series of skins now has low-violence variants: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-CSGO/commit/b78c8b5715804feb44eb97e5157de9b8c733ebc8
- Here's the item schema update with changes for the R8 Revolver and the Negev: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/SteamTracking/commit/f501387fa757eb2fe92b2e33ebfd8982031af981

TF2 update for 4/12/17
in
TF2 General Discussion
Via the Steam store:
Valve- Internal updates to support future development
- These changes originally shipped to game servers only on March 14th
- Fixed regression from the toolchain beta causing the r_drawclipbrushes command to hang the game
- Fixed regression from the toolchain beta causing OS X players to be unable to join certain servers
Rumor has it:
- Excluding attempt #1 at this update (which was on 3/14/17 but then rolled back on clients due to Mac issues mentioned above), this is TF2's first update in 57 days
- Do you want to be bored? Knock yourself out, this GameTracking diff is the epitome of boring

in
TF2 General Discussion
Via the Steam store:
Valve- Added UGC Highlander Season 19/Season 20, UGC 6vs6 Season 21/Season 22, and UGC 4vs4 Season 8/Season 9 tournament medals
- Added Gamers Assembly 2017 tournament medals
Rumor has it:
- Although the Steam store post claims "The update will be applied automatically when you restart Team Fortress 2.", it's just an item schema update (which can be seen here), so there won't be anything to download

in
CS2 General Discussion
Via the CS:GO blog:
Valve[ MISC ]
– When inspecting in game items from user’s own inventory, from other users’ inventories, and from Community Market, players can now see an official Item Certificate that includes Finish Style, Finish Catalog Number, Pattern Template, and Wear Rating.
– Adjusted the nearby lobbies search algorithm, in addition to geographic proximity by distance, to include more results from the same country as the searching user, providing more relevant results for players living near borders.
[ MAPS ]
Canals
– fixed gap in bomb site B wall
– fixed missing texture in bridge visible from arch
– fixed overlapping geometry at A site
– fixed a few places near T spawn where bomb could get stuck
– increased fade distances on some props that were distracting
– adjusted wall geometry in prison stairs to fix lighting glitch
– increased lightmap grid resolution in prison lobby
– added a piece of cardboard under new toolbox at B to block glitchy sightline

– Added some cover near tunnel exit in yard
– Moved terrorist spawn area to balcony at back of house
– Added cover in long-range areas

Rumor has it:
- Here's an example of an item certificate: http://i.imgur.com/xTQ6sWD.png
- You can view them by inspecting items, and then hovering over the icon in the lower right corner
- This is a solution meant to replace API functions that you may remember being discontinued last week due to excessive load that couldn't be solved anytime soon
- Despite the larger than usual size, GameTracking is surprisingly light: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-CSGO/commit/27dc8fdcdf66587665eab8cfef53f07b3d298eea
- Most of the large size is from more shader updates (in \platform\shaders\fxc\), lightmappedgeneric_ps30.vcs on its own accounts for most of the size, clocking in at ~240 MB
- Size is ~310 MB

- Here's some news for those interested in following the upcoming publishing of CS:GO in China by Perfect World: there's a new URL for those signing up for Steam for the first time to play CS:GO while under Perfect World influence added as part of today's Steam client BETA update
- Despite the Operation 8 map pool being leaked alongside new icons, the Scaleform files that contain them have not been modified to remove them

John mentioned that although on paper it could result in slightly improved performance, don't expect anything drastic in the range of a miracle.

Via HLDS:
Valve- Internal updates to support future development
Rumor has it:
- John Schoenick shared this notice along with the above:
John Schoenick via HLDSThis update will be making the toolchain beta branch live. This update is known to break numerous server mods, many of which have updates available. In order to reduce the pain with this transition, the update is optional for servers. However, the next mandatory TF update will necessarily end support for the pre-toolchain-update builds, so server administrators should seek to update as soon as possible.
See the "Updated system requirements for TF2 dedicated servers" thread for more information on the toolchain update.

- In case you care about low-level stuff, here it is, but for most people, it'll be boring and of no use. Also included is a sync of recent Steam Datagram system configuration changes that properly implement the Sydney data center IP range changes
