Permission to Associate N4S L4D2 Servers with SteamLUG

[NgCOCKFIGHT λ]

Hello World.

I've been running several dedicated L4D2 servers for the past several years and they're mostly in the 95th+ percentile. This just means they're pretty popular with a lot of love on how I've set them up. They're mostly vanilla but slightly modified to enhance game play on a 12 year old game.

The immediate visual modifications compared to a vanilla server are

• Special infected can look like survivors; survivors can look like special infected (say !lmc)
  
• Survivors can help themselves up (it's a quick time event (tap jump) with cool downs and limits)
  
• If you die as a survivor and a surviving bot is available, you'll switch to the bot to stay in play
  
• Game will not end until there is one survivor dead or incapacitated (a chance to get up)
  
• Servers support up to 16 players in any mode e.g., Campaign, Survival, Versus, etc

I'm making this post for transparency. I know a handful of the administrators here and I hope I've always been alright by you. I just noticed there are zero L4D2 servers associated with the group. I am willing to associate 10 of my servers with SteamLUG and if that's appropriate, I can make every admin of SteamLUG an admin on every server. I will need majority approval before associating the servers. If the admins approve, all members of SteamLUG will have easier access to servers controlled by SteamLUG admins. If all goes through, when a member of SteamLUG fires up the game, they'll see the N4S:USTX and N4S:USFL servers in their Steam Group Servers (lower right hand corner of the game's main menu).

To better understand the servers provided and to see if they'll make a good asset to the group, feel free to join the [Need 4 Speed Steam Group](https://steamcommunity.com/groups/n4s-crew). After launching the game, you'll see 10 N4S servers listed under Steam Group Servers. Have fun <3

I miss when we (the mods and officers of the group) were a lot more active here.

You've got my blessing since we don't appear to be running any servers of our own. FYI: This is me, personally, chiming in. I'll let the rest of the mods speak on this if they'd like.
