Start your server with koth_lakeside_event and i would recommend
event247 instead of mix. A lot of people go for the new map, not the
cycle of the old. Server is much harder (if you have new server) to
setup with eventmix. If you have login setup and server seems to log in
according to console ("SUCCESS") and configs are ok, you are in the
quickplay. They seem to be ok, only i don't know if you are properly
setup the login. Like this:
tf_server_identity_account_id numbershere
tf_server_identity_token "somerandompasswordheregivenbysteam"
2. Don't know about minimum but i assume atleast 8.
3. I dont think there is a limit. Unless it's came in with personal gift
box drops. Might as well be limited. Who knows! (but i doubt).

Couple questions:
1. Still no way to check the status of quickplay on a server? I've
been asking everyone who shows up, but they are all coming from server
browser. Quick checklist: Copied halloween mapcycle, set eventmix tag
(sv_tags are now "_registered, cp, alltalk, eventmix"), have
"tf_mm_servermode 1" in my server.cfg.
2. Is there a minimum of players to start the event? (I think 10 last
year to spawn Monoculus, gifts, etc)
3. Will halloween related drops like cursed objects be subject to the
weekly drop limit like normal items or will I continue to get
Halloween items if I marathon some tf2 this week?
Thanks!

We're having an issue where Merasmus isn't spawning. Is it caused
by nocrits?

I haven't downloaded the new client but could you clear something up
about the 'won't get any quickplay traffic' if I don't set the new
tags or use the new maps. For example I have a payload server,
obviously doesn't use koth or cp maps and won't be using those
particular maps. I will be disqualified from quickplay for my payload
server if I don't use the new tags or the new maps? Or does this post
only mean 'halloween event quickplay traffic'
