We've released an optional update for TF2, DoD:S, and HL2:DM. The notes are

Were there any registration/quickplay backend changes since yesterday's
update? My server has for the past month or so been struggling with
quickplay traffic almost never coming in reliably. But immediately after
applying this update and restarting, the server filled within 3 minutes
even though it was just an "optional" update so there shouldn't have
been a server shortage. Previously it was reporting in "status" as
registered and people would still come in in small bursts once there
were 4-6 players but it was unreliable. Now it filled instantly at 2PM
Eastern time after applying an irrelevant update and has stayed full
since then. The only strange thing is that immediately before I shut
down the server (which was empty) to apply the update, the status had
changed to this:
account : not logged in (Cannot locate owner's steam account)
But I have never seen this until today, and just this one time, and of
course after restarting the server it logged in normally and traffic
immediately came in. Absolutely no configuration changes were made in
the interim. In case anyone at Valve wants to poke around, the
account_id is 409.
Thanks,
