What was weird / concerning to me when it happened was that it happen simultaneously with players on my TF2 server and on my CS:S server. So, to me it seemed like either all my servers being cut-off from Steam simultaneously- or all my players (on different games) being cut-off from Steam

Eric - Is there any clarity Valve can share on which games this change will occur with next? CS:S? HL2MP? HL1DM(Source)MP? Also, is this planned eventually for GoldSrc-based titles as well? (HL1, CS, DMC, TFC, DoD, etc.)? or will it only effect Source-based titles? I ask because, although

IMH(f)O, If you are going to compare TF2 stats to another Valve title, CS:GO is probably a better indication of what may be going-on. I do not thing DOTA is a good comparison - as it (as mentioned by others here) is really drawing a different crowd.
