Would having additonal tags like "increased maxplayers" on a 32 person server disqualify the server from the Halloween quickplay?

Hello!

Here are some details for how to configure your server to receive quickplay 
traffic.

First, the general requirements and scoring systems have not changed.  (Your 
server must have an account and advertise the _registered tag, will be 
penalized or excluded for certain rule changes, etc).  Details are here:

This year the quickplay UI will offer players two choices for Halloween:

1.) Halloween 2012.  Servers exclusively running the new map 24/7.
2.) Halloween mix.  Servers running a mix of all the Halloween maps.

At any given time, your server can only be in one pool or the other.  Valve 
will be running servers in both pools.

Your server will be placed in pool #1 if:
* You advertise the tag "event247"; and
* You are running the new map "koth_lakeside_event".

Your server will be placed in pool #2 if:
* You advertise the tag "eventmix"; and
* You are running one of the four Halloween maps.

The eligible Halloween maps are:
        koth_harvest_event
        cp_manor_event
        koth_viaduct_event
        koth_lakeside_event

If you don't set one of the two tags, you won't get any quickplay traffic!

Also, I'd like to mention a new convar that has been added, 
mp_mapcycle_empty_timeout_seconds, which will cause your server to cycle the 
map if it has been empty for a certain period of time.
