Well we all need personal time but while Valve are down the beach I and many others are sitting here putting servers back up as fast as they are taken down because the smart guys at mygot release this info end of the week knowing that there will be 3-4 days before valve even start to look at a fix.
We had a beta test and what a joke that was one map slow updates you could hardly call it a beta more just a hardware test. Like many others I think valve is too slow at releasing these fixes, we all moved over to steam so they could send out lots of small fixes fast but from what I can see steam is just a way of them collecting more data on users than rolling out fixes.
