Ummm, yeah... thx for the de-rail
Hrrrm... afaik Fridays update http://store.steampowered.com/news/7036/ broke
the steamgroup servers feature for L4D2. It never returns any of our
servers now.
Anyone else? L4D seems to be working fine though L4D2 isn't. I'm guessing
the new function added broke it?

Next time use the status command to see what is the public IP for your servers.
You may have a surprise and see that different servers are seen by Valve as
having same public IP, a new “feature” introduced since few days. Restarting
the servers will fix the problem…

Thank you... while researching further, I just discovered 6 of our 8 TF2
servers weren't showing up in the Valve server browser. I then found an
additional game update since the last one after re-running the hldsupdatetool.
I don't get it, somehow 6 of the 8 servers didn't have this update, yet the
other 2 did; this in spite of the fact that they were all updated at the exact
same time and all showed the correct version numbers in HLSW.
Since running the hldsupdatetool again, all the servers are now appearing in
the server browser and filling up. Bizarre. Sorry for the false alarm, but if
anyone else is having this trouble, you may consider re-running the hldsupdate
tool as well.
Have a good evening,
Mike

I've actually seen the opposite on my server. It was struggling a little before
the patch. We had to seed every day for a while. Now it's got players around
the clock. And this pattern has happened several times now. I wouldn't worry
too much. Just seed on your servers and stick through it and you'll eventually
get that traffic back.
