That's why I had it in the server.cfg, so it gets triggered on map load. I had 4 servers running the same exact all of them with late join but 2 had +sv_unreserve and yet they all kept being reserved even when empty and I couldn't connect via the server browser. It worked fine upon first load but not after the maps changed once or twice and people played.
