Thats not true. Fletcher personally mailed to me yesterday about the issue and we tested many things and found out that early registered people may have had copypasted the console output and thus the equal sign may have ended up in configs. I even tested separate server.so that Fletcher gave me that did some better error reporting and it helped to locate the issue. There still was an issue where server didn't connect to steam properly and thats where the error reporting server.so helped. They found something wrong in backend that would cause server to fail to log in and fixed it. At that point, gifts started dropping on mine. I guess there might be still something wrong or just the item server been down and you haven't rebooted the server since.
How is what I said not true? You seem to be confirming my observation, that Fletcher and you looked at "bad config" being the cause of no gifts, no?
I wasn't criticising Valve for having a weekend off, nor for finding a real problem that did exist with some people's config.
I was just lamenting the fact that had people configured their servers well and had the event not been short, and over a weekend, things might have been different.
My server's registered, it's getting successfully authenticated (and has been for months), it's getting quickplayers joining it, it's been restarted a couple of times but it isn't getting gifts :(
