The servers are all running fine but are not showing up in the Now Playing block. I don't know why and can not "fix" it. Hoping John pops in for a look see.
Thanks John !

The Final match between Prone Crouch Prone and Iron and Steel was intense. The first half had some brilliant moments. the final score was PCP>> 579 - 256 I&S
Congratualtions to pcp>> on their win. I'd like to thank all of the teams participating in the SLDL this season and hope to see you return to the new format in SLDL 16 with two skill based conferences.
Registration for season sixteen is open. There will be two conferences based on skill levels not the number of teams. Discussion of map choice for the upcoming season 16 is ongoing in the forums. Don't miss out on this opportunity to choose your favourite maps.

Thanks to everyone for the generous donations totalling $1525.00 ! I'm delighted to match this amount. This will keep SunLit alive for at least another year with pub and match servers, custom maps, the sixteenth season of the SunLit Day of Defeat League, the first season of the SunLit TF2 League and the potential to add or try out new games as you wish.

Numbers have dropped below that critical mass of players that keep the servers active, even during primetime. We made a stab at offering incentives to other clans to make SunLit their pub home but it didn't catch on. The SLDL and the MOTW server pull in clan players on league nights but the numbers are not sustained during the week. The TF2 server will occasionally fill up but the players appear to be transients. Some of you have made a determined attempt to seed the servers but through no fault of your own, have not had success. Without a solid player base using the servers, there's very little rationale for keeping all of them.
The SunLit website exists by the good graces of John and it is the linchpin for the community. Many thanks to John for maintaining the web site account for SunLit as building a new site with this functionality is beyond my capabilities.
The dedicated server is another matter.

DOD and TF2 run on the OrangeBox Engine. Mani Admin and the OB don't work well together.Mani has said that he will return to developing his program when CSS is ported over to OB so in the interim we've switched over to using SourceMod. What does this mean for the players? The following feature are availalbe to you in DODS and TF2:
TK Forgive/Ban (DODS)
Menus has forgive/dont forgive options only
5 unforgiven tks = 30 min auto ban
SOD Stats
Say "rank" to see your rank.
Say "top" or "top10" to see the top ten players.
Say "session" or "statsme" to see your session and stats information
Information is stored for 5 days from the last time you've played
AFK Manager:
Kicks in with a minimum of 8 players in game
After 3 minutes, moves players to spectator
After three more minutes kicks
Hp_Left: (DODS)
Your killer's hp_left is displayed in chat message area
Handy feature since the Deathcam is disabled
Map vote 2 minutes before the round end.
5 maps randomly drawn from the mapcycle
Nominate and Rock the Vote (rtv) are enabled for the players, just type in "rtv" or "nominate"
The map choices come from the macycle only
Motd
Type motd in chat and it shows the Sunlit Motd rules and server information
CD Announce:
Announces a player's Steamid and Country of origin on login

You might be seeing party hats and balloons on the server.
Its not a plugin or a cvar. Looks like Valve has some sort of easter egg that is enabled on the 24th, anniversary of the original TF. I am trying to see if I can turn it off although it may just have to run its course.
Thanks to BoneDaddy for helping to investigate. :)

Neutrino has returned with a double header

Purportedly his last DODS offering, dod_vanguard_rc5 looks very interesting with multilevel gameplay.You may notice some similarities to a single-player level from HL2 which inspired him on the middle of the map. Playing on SunLit Custom Map Server 69.28.221.147:27015

His first TF2 map is ctf_moonchies_b2 . Its well layed out and captures the whimsy of the TF2 maps. Neutrino has asked for feedback. Its playing on the SunLit TeamFortress2 [NO MODS] 69.28.221.231:27015

The SunLit Custom Map server 69.28.221.147:27015 is running the SOD Stats plugin.
It is a simple plugin allowing players to check on their rank through chat commands.
Say "rank" to see your rank.
Say "top" or "top10" to see the top ten players.
Say "session" or "statsme" to see your session and stats information.
Only the player requesting the information will see it.
You can close the pop up menu by hitting the 1 key.

The SLDL is a league that features custom maps and is a stepping stone for teams new to competition, to become familiar with the match protocols. Currently, there is an insufficient number of teams to form two conferences based on skill levels and experience. To this end, new CAL-i players and teams will not be accepted in the SLDL Season 15. Mixing of skill levels in one conference has been the death knell for several leagues and we are not going down this road.
Our apologies to any teams that may be excluded.
Regards
Rosie the Riveter
SLDL Admin
