Server's struggling.

[FadedOasis]

Server's still not up. Can't get a connection to Valve's server to update.

[FadedOasis]

This is getting ridiculous. I'll keep trying. Sorry, guys.

[FadedOasis]

Uh oh. Server just partially updated, then lost connection. Last time this happened, I needed to do a full reinstall of everything. Testing lots of stuff now. Cross your fingers.

[FadedOasis]

Fuck. Server won't start. Initiating a full reinstall. Server will be down until sometime tomorrow, hopefully.

[FadedOasis]

Ugh. Server should be working now. Message me if it breaks.

*Looks at timestamps* Damn. You're the bestest admin, Faded. Thank-you for being awesome!

[FadedOasis]

I should specify, no non-admin should notice any significant things missing. However, if an admin attempts to change to a custom map that isn't in rotation (like Glacier), they'll get an error about a missing map. The only custom maps I uploaded were ones in rotation. I figure I'll keep it light so I don't have to download as much next time. If you guys want me to add a map, just tell me, and it'll be up within 48 hours, 24 if I'm not busy.

Oh, please don't switch to an Arena map. I've stopped updating the arena half of the server.

*Plays a sad song on the world's smallest violin for all the former-MKWEA arena maps.*

Their influence against boredom and legitimate maps will not be forgotten.
