After a quick look in the sourcecode I could see this plugin automaticly creates the tables if they dont exist, so maybe you should create a link inside database.txt in your config folders..

Maybe someone can clarify

Plugin connects to the default database (it should be MySQL) and automatically creates the table if it doesn't exists.

I'm a MySql noob. What is the name of the database? I'll create the database if I knew the name. Thanks.

Plugins always connect to the default unless mentioned else.

Thanks.

I'm getting the same errors as above. Using MySQL Workbench, I see no new tables added to the MySQL database.

Feature request: don't print the announcement if the receiver has already set his. Of course that requires the Plugin to send the announcement individually instead of by global broadcast.

^ This. Please don't create an admin flag cvar when there's a perfectly good admin_overrides.cfg file.

Also, why not give SQLite instructions also? It's not too hard, and easier than MySQL.

Since this plugin was bumped back to the first page, some fun things to do with configs/birthday.txt in TF2 are:

1. Set tf_birthday to 1 (make sure server.cfg has tf_birthday 0 or else it'll never go away). This spawns the birthday beach ball in BLU spawn, puts party hats on all players heads, and changes gibs to presents.
2. Install [TF2] Force Holidays and set tfh_birthday to 1 (make sure server.cfg has tfh_birthday 0 or else it'll never go away). This spawns the birthday beach ball in BLU spawn, changes medkits and ammo boxes to their birthday models, and enables the use of the Birthday noisemaker.
