A few of our community pubs are still trying this. I'm still optimistic.

There are a few logistical concerns. I'm not sure if these are
considered by Valve's alogorithm or not. I'm defending DWP, so
hopefully these can be confirmed/acknowledged/considered:
- mp_startmoney > 1000 servers excluded
- buying habits monitored on stock maps ONLY

The NO AWP/AUTOSNIPER server does skew it, too.

erm, good luck? :)
