Today our admins.cfg file which contains the majority of our admins & donators was wiped clean (thanks Haplo!
) & there were no recent backups available. 
If you purchased prior to Feb 10th, 2012 - You may have noticed your admin or donator privileges in-game were down today for a short while.
I have since re-made our admins.cfg by referencing only active subscriptions on the old system and anyone who did not have admin or donator earlier in the day should now have it.
If you do not have donator or admin in-game and you did before today / you believe you should still have it, please reply to this thread with your Steam ID and/or Paypal e-mail and I will look into it and ensure you're re-added to the system if you still have time left on an already cancelled subscription.
Sorry for the 'outage' and any inconvenience it may cause in regaining your powers if need be. The only users who may not have powers but should are those who have cancelled their subscription before this incident occurred yet still have time left on it before it expires.
Again this only affects those who purchased before Feb 10th, 2012.

So I was able to obtain us a few keys for the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Beta. I was trying to think of a way to distribute them to our community in the best way so I figured I would give them out differently. Here is a list of ways that I'm going to be giving out keys.
One will be given to a person who comments in this thread. Given Away

Hello and welcome to the new Plague Fest website, BETA!
Before you begin your experience, it is recommended you read the following.
First, I'm sorry to the vampires in PF, but there is no dark version of this design, so get used to it. A dark version may be a possibility in the future, but it would not come until after the current one was as complete as possible, and the issues with running a dark and light skin simultaneously were figured out - one big issue being text color in posts. People on the dark skin will use light colors which will be annoying to users on the light skin, and vice versa. It would also require the maintenance of both skins at once for any core or addon / template updates. So for now, and perhaps always, turn on a light in the room you're in and enjoy! Alternatively, rope light or similar behind the monitor or TV does a wonderful job at easing the eye strain when sitting in the dark. In addition to that, I recommend ensuring your monitor(s) is calibrated. Now, with the notice about night to day out of the way let's move on.
I must stress that this is considered a beta period. Site5 was complaining about our resource usage which caused me to rush the site launch sooner than I would have liked. That's OK though, we should be plenty stable & functional to operate (I hope), though we may see some oddities here and there, and a lot of the old posts will certainly be quite ugly.
Now, you may have noticed your Steam ID is gone, you will have to re-add this to your account. You can find instructions on how to do this via the wiki, don't worry it's e.z.p.z.
Note that if you're a server admin that requested a username...

So after looking back at how ZombieMod was over the years, one thing hit me. When we moved away from Mani we lost our Quake Sounds! Well, after spending a couple hours of mindless copy pasting, hunting down a old copy of UT, we now have an Unreal Tournament Announcer. Changes between this and "Quake Sounds" is the fact that it's just like Quake except we have the Female announcer from UT. We have Round end times, Team Win/Lose sounds, etc. Dominating, Multikill, Head Hunter, the whole meal deal.
Anyways, I'm just rambling now. Type !announcer in game to activate it. By default, to prevent possible dissatisfaction, it's disabled. Your settings will be saved!
Huge thanks to everyone who tested the final product with me.

So uh, yeah. Dharkk was getting all upset at me about a year ago saying how difficult it is to click to move between clients in order to spec people. So I've wrapped it into a menu that you're welcome to use.
The command is sm_esmenu, and it looks like this.

Huge thanks to Jermaine [pF] for allowing me to slay him, this persists throughout deaths thanks to that test.

EDIT:
Fixed some outstanding issues with the servers, including the AFK Manager kicking 'dead' players. This should now function properly under ND and CS:S. I've rewritten Root Display to be a bit more efficient and use less memory (We're still talking about kB here). You may now utilize this tool that I've been using pretty much exclusively along with some of my peers and LSAs. The command is !rdisplay. There are other changes as well, but I don't think anyone will notice them.

...Two new Donator+ skins have been added to the Zombie Mod servers.

Please do not put skin suggestions in here, I will ignore them. Open a thread in the appropriate forum if you wish or better yet, search for already existing topics to ensure you're not suggesting a skin that's already been suggested (we've had a lot). All the skins currently available can be found here.
