I realize it's been a slow couple of months, but we are back w/ a vengeance. We now have a genuine partner, in the form of coltsplayground.net They're a really cool bunch of guys, who have offered to share their servers. They're also just as enthusiastic about TF2 as we are, and are more than happy to test maps and provide some much needed feedback for us. The only catch is their servers are located in the UK, which means 100 or so ping for people state-side. Still, I think it's a small price to pay. Lately our gamedays have been somewhat disorganized, with members putting up last min. servers to accomodate people.
Well now we have plenty to choose from. With a place to house all of our maps, there's no reason we can't start providing each other with feedback and testing as well. The TF2M community will always have priority along side the Colt guys. We can also have the Steam player of the week actually mean something now. When I first started the group, I always imagined the PotW having his favorite map featured, a few admin powers, etc. Also feel free to register at their site and put up a few screens of your latest work. Though not all of them are especially interested in mapping, they love to play, and will certainly give feedback and suggestions.
Our main server is going to be here; 84.45.84.166:27015 This is where we're going to dump all the maps that get submitted, at least for now. We'll work out something more refined later. For now though, this is the place to find all the maps from the site. Here are the other servers, if your'e looking for a regular game.

So go play a bit, show off your latest wip on their site. I don't know about you guys, but I am thrilled that we finally have a server to call home. This means you could go play, 99% guaranteed a spot, and actually discuss the map w/ your fellow mappers. TF2M is back baby! .... we never actually left, but it feels like a fresh start. Anyways, I'm excited, how about you?
