Brent is correct. Essentially, if a server doesn't have a custom search key set, it will be automatically set to "key:1013". This is the public search key. When you specify a custom sv_search_key, the code adds "key:" to the start of it and "1013" to the end of it. So you would have: "key:customkey1013". This is used for private serach key servers. You can have multiple search keys by tricking the sv_search_key into generating two. Since it automatically adds "key:" to the front and "1013" to the tail and keys are seperated by a comma, our public and private key would become "key:1013,key:someuniquekey1013" and it would be available for both public lobbies and private, search key lobbies.
