Re: [hlds] Drop in users
probably another big factor atleast for servers that are filled closer to 24/7, valve fixed the ping issue relating to where players are sent. We tend to get a lot less international players which can also account for the significant drop On Thu, Sep 13, 2012 at 11:07 AM, Ryan Stecker voidedwea...@gmail.com wrote: Summer has ended and the school year has just recently started in the US.

Re: [hlds] Drop in users
This is off topic, but I'd love to see a Halloween themed MVM map with the update. Anyways, my original server last year had a lot more players on it at this time of year, but that was with old Quickplay. Right now I'm opped into the beta, which I should probably opt out of since I doubt there will be many group games. Thanks anyway.
