How do I obtain a login token via the web api tool when I don't have a domain name? Is this even necessary?

I run a home TF2 server on one of my i7 pcs with a great internet connection (94MBs/4MBs). I opted out of quickplay and use the commands of 'tf_server_identity_account' and 'tf_server_identity_token' to register with Steam. The server logs in anonymously and players are able to get item drops.

I'd like to allow players to participate in the Halloween events and get the Halloween gift drops. My assumption is that I'd have to do the enable quickplay in the server config file and have the server log in with the 'sv_setsteamaccout' command in the autoexec config file.

The problem is that it appears I need a registered domain name to use in the web tool created by Power Lord or Sarabveer to register a steam server account to get the login token.

Is there a way around this, or do I have to find a register a domain name to allow players to participate in quick play? Or.... maybe I just don't understand this at all.

Any info or clarification you can provide would be appreciated.

Edit: [Solved]. Steps taken to solve the problem:
1. Went to Steam website: http://steamcommunity.com/dev/registerkey
2. Input my public facing IP address as my domain name, clicked 'register'.
3. Received my Steam Web API key.
4. Input the Steam Web API key in the webtool posted above by Sarabveer: https://www.v33r.tk/steamreg.html
5. Received a json file from the Sarabveer site. Saved it to desktop. Opened it with Notepad ++. Found login token.
6. Added 'sv_setsteamaccout' command with the login token into autoexec.cfg.
7. Changed server shortcut startup command to remove the +login anonymous
8. Started server. Success!
9. Server console now shows: Assigned persistent gameserver Steam ID [G:1xxx].

You can use a random/nonexistent one.

Two things:

1. You don't need to have a persistent gameserver account to receive drops (as far as I know). You only need to be logged into the TF2 GC with your identity account and token. You can opt out of Quickplay and still get drops.
2. Why did you have +login anonymous on your server's command line?

I updated my registration page to add a LOT of other games that it was missing and touch up a few other things (HTML5's "required" attribute is nice btw).

It may not be as nice looking as Sarabveer's version... it's intended to be functional, not look nice, as it was intended to be temporary. Also, it intentionally doesn't include any script or style elements in case people were paranoid.

Missed that someone asked this.

It's from one of Fletcher Dunn's messages on the hlds list:

It's archived on the web.

I mirrored Bubka's API tool since his website appears to be down. Has a bit more than the one Powerlord put up.

About the quickplay rules, we can't be in the quicikplay if we run a gamemode like Manvstank?.

And if yes we can run Mannvstank we can be in the quickplay even if the plugin spawn a giant with a custom weapon??

Quick play only works with official maps on their official game mode
