Definitely seemed yesterday to be rather wide-spread. But one wierd thing I noticed yesterday was how it was effecting some of my servers, but not ALL of them: [*] I have THREE TF2 server instances are on the same IP address (on Linux). [*] No changes to firewalls or really anything recently. [*] Both game/host/server port and Steam port are specified at command-line for each instance. Client port currently dynamic/automatic. [*] TWO of those THREE server instances were perfectly fine. [*] ONE instance (the most heavily used of course) was giving players the "can't find an item server" stuff. [*] All the on-line tools I have checked (http://steamstat.us/, http://status.tf2lists.com/, etc.), show the items servers were up? I checked that first, otherwise I wouldn't have even bothered to post to the list. [*] I noticed that same ONE server instance (that was NOT working), was no longer accepting or using the tf_server_identity_account_id and tf_server_identity_token values. When I did as status command on the console it said ...
"account : not logged in (No account specified)". [*] For the TWO server instances that WERE working - they showed that they were successfully logged-in. That leads me to suspect that some of this may have had something to do with the process of replacing the old TF2 server registration system with the Steam (sv_setsteamaccount) registration system? Maybe some upgrade or conversion process going-on at the back-end? I would hope that would not have done that in a way that breaks the "item server" stuff? If not that, then I guess it's just another random/mysterious Item Server "event" - "The Valentine's Day Item Server Massacre"?
