THANK YOU VALVE!
I know y'all havent seen me much, it's cuz I have been stuck on GMOD and a dedicated server I have been paying for through a hosting company.
Till last night I was having a LOT of fun owning a server and having a few friends as admins, building stuff, blowing up stuff, doing whatever comes natural on GMOD.
Valve went and ran another OB (OrangeBox) update and at that very moment a vast majority of the Dedicated Servers out there went unusable! After going through some email Ping-Pong with the hosting company, who by the way washed their hands of any responsibility to help fix this problem, it was basically determined that until Valve gets both thumbs out their asses, nothing can be done. They need to release a WORKING UPDATE in order for MY MONEY to be proven well spent.
So nw I have to resort to single player mode of GMOD (which SUCKS) or do other Steam games which I HOPE will work for other servers!
I've decided to dust off my Source SDK and try my hand once again at some mapping.
Thing is, I wonder which game to map for.... I have the following....
CS:S, HL2, HL2:DM, HL2:E1, HL2:E2, HL2:Lost Coast, HLDM: Source, Synergy, and I even bought Crazy Machines 2, and City Life 2008
So..... the question is.......... what should I create a map for (CM2 and CL2008 are excluded from that option LOL)

Was the "THANK YOU VALVE!" sarcastic, or not?
... What.
At first, I thought, oh yeah, its sarcastic, but then when you said you were gonna do some mapping, so I thought maybe you were actually thanking valve for inadvertently getting you back into mapping.
Anyway, if you like MP, then try HL 2 DM, or maybe CS:S, if you think you can really push yourself to get above all the crap maps out there.
He said "They need to release a WORKING UPDATE in order for MY MONEY to be proven well spent. " .
Thank you for showing me the error of my ways.
"Anyway, if you like MP, then try HL 2 DM, or maybe CS:S, if you think you can really push yourself to get above all the crap maps out there."
But Striker went ahead and derailed it again.
Derailed yet?... Damn.
Anyway, I've played GMOD once or twice or closer to seven, but only by my selfsame. I think a multiplayer would be a lot more... "interesting".
EDIT: "until Valve gets both thumbs out their asses"
So they have 2 thumbs, but multiple asses?
