I apologize for not making news about this sooner as there had been some miscommunication between the data center and myself about when their maintenance would begin.
Some of the TI back-end servers are currently down for maintenance in the data center.
The data center is replacing an electrical feed that goes to half of our servers power supplies. The game servers, as well as one of the servers crucial to the authentication process are powered down and will remain so for approximately up to 12 hours.
When their maintenance is complete, they will contact me and I'll restart the servers.
Thanks for your patience.
Regarding some of the metadata changes to the games app
Alright some of you are curious; The new achievement, other settings, etc. These aren't available yet; The way steam..works.. I was forced to publish the changes so that I could prepare other things for the beta version (which will be opened up soon, and there will be a post on the forum for how to get into it) as well as an actual proper explanation for some of it.
My apologies for the confusion.

Thanks for your understanding.
Summer Tournament [Active][Notification]
Hello Everyone;
Would all players taking part in the Tactical Intervention Summer Tournament please check the TI Tournament standings for changes to the league tables.
Okay sorry guys, servers are back up. There was a network outage, and one of the core systems didn't restart automatically.
Unexpected Downtime
There is something wrong with the servers, as you all have noticed about the maintenance. I'll keep you posted once I know what's wrong.
Update / October 17, 2014

However, the following is the list of notable game changes.
Added additional rooms for low level players
new player bonuses (details soon) are now in effect
when time runs out in FFA, scoring now actually happens instead of everyone losing

adjust the size of first person muzzleflahes and reduce the frequency of creating them so they are less distracting
