I spoke with IWG today and the mod server is back, when I get access to it later tonight after I get back from work I should be able to set something up, I know there's a thread about the hidden so I could probably put that up for tonight.
However going forward Id like to propose that instead of a weekly basis, we try to keep a server on the same mod on a rolling 2 - 4 week basis depending on interest and level of suck of the mod.
I believe all of the old files are still on the server, so several of what is listed is good to go at any time, though Id probably double check to make sure its all up to date.
Let me know what you want and Ill get the ball rolling again
Viva la mod-box
I suggest we try some of the new mods that got released on Steam like DIPRIP and Insurgency.

I found DIPRIP to be very entertaining when you take the 4 minutes and learn how to play it.
I'm
always up for synergy.
And also, the ship kinda sucks now.
Some good ol PVK2 would be nice ;D
Synergy is still a bitch and a half to install. Involves extracting files from the HL2 GCF's, uploading them to the server and lots of annoying config shit. I tried it but gave up. So, would the server be passworded or non-passworded? I'm assuming not, since that'll build community.
Should have a cronjob that advertises free reserved slots and other treats if people register on the forums (don't think reserved slots itself is advertised, but it would be worth the effort to set up with mods)
edit: a lot of the mods force 20 players max, would that affect the reserved slot plugin?

To answer: No password, turn out was always an issue, leaving it open will encourage random fans of said mod to play with us
The other deal is that requires installing sourcemod on that mod, each install needs its own source mod install, which can be a bitch and a half, what I could do is create a standard "sourcemod installer" that I copy paste into each mod, complete with admins and plugins, there is also no guarantee that SM will work with all mods either.
And reserved slots won't work unless you want me to set the player limit to 18 and have a hidden 19th slot.
FORTRESS FOREVER
please :'(
palermo is one of my favorite maps ever :'(
No one has an excuse for not having HL1 now, so we need to start doing HL1 mods. Also I vote for Acshun Halflife.

I suggest avanti, palermo, rock2, cz2, osaka, cornfield, and all those other nonshit stock maps
The Ship/Ballmen/Zombie Master 1.2.0.
S+I
and i swear i had this idea of leaving the mod running for a month at a time instead of a new one every week , eases up on the server administraion , and gives peopel a chance to join on week two if they had a schedule conflict on week one
