We're going to have a required TF2 update coming later today. This isn't the update for the Halloween event nor is it the update that will require your server to be registered in order to receive gift drops on Halloween maps, but, as with all required updates, you will need to apply the update to your servers to allow players to connect.

Thanks,
Tony

It was not fixed.

You still can't run a 32 player TF2 server with replay and sourcetv without the clients crashing.

Servers updated, one of my 24 slot Windows servers already crashed, and it rarely ever does.

There has been a bug in the TF2 server reputation trend calculation. Previously, it would only report that the reputation was either "slightly upward" or "downward fast."

It will be fixed in the next update, to properly show five different levels: up fast, up slow, steady, down slow, and down fast.

I'm sure that this news comes as a *complete shock* to everybody. none of us had the SLIGHTEST INKLING that something was amiss, since it seemed to make such perfect sense.

No seriously, thanks to those who reported this issue. And I apologize if anybody lost sleep over their server's reputation as a result of this bug.

And just to be clear: the bug was not in the calculation of the reputation data and had no effect on quickplay, etc. It only affects the reporting of the trend message.

Your humble servant,
