Those cvars work for the most part to show servers in the old way. The -nomaster thing is good to check. However Valve changed the way they crawl listings to return to the user searching for servers.
It tries to return based servers closest to the user based on ping and physical location on their IP. It has a cut off for number of servers returned and aims to return the "best" servers. It doesn't work all that effectively and excludes a lot of servers from being found by a lot of people.
