This is my first plugin, it took me about 6 hours to learn how to write it and make it work.

Basically it adds a players location tag (e.g. UK, US, FR ) to the end of a players name.
Example: N3wton [UK]

if a user is an admin the players name will look more like this:
Example: (A)N3wton [UK]

It also has an option to show a welcome message as players connect, this can be turned off.
The player join message can be changed in the .cfg, but the default is...
Example: N3wton from the United Kingdom has joined.
(admin users will be shown in yellow)

As I say this is my first plugin, so please be kind and suggest improvements.

NOTE
There is an error in the Left4Dead2 gamedata( in SorceMod 1.3.1) file located at...
"left4dead2/addons/sourcemod/gamedata/sdktools.games/engine.l4d2.txt"
the SetUserCvar for windows is set at 18, where as the correct value is 17.
I recommend updating your server to the latest STABLE snapshot located here.
(note: this bug only effects windows servers, linux servers should run fine)
