SQ is smart and doesn't show reserved spots besides for that little half a second flash you get when it refreshes. That is good in one way.. but on the other hand when then server is full you can't tell it to "Wait for a free spot" because it can't differentiate between players taking up reserved spots and normal spots. If in a future patch HL was able to tell this information then that would be the icing on the cake :)

Actually I guess AdminMod could set a few variables to show the active number of both normal and reserved players (and these would appear with all the other server variables although SQ doesn't show all of these like GameSpy does)... and then SQ (or any game browser) could just look at those and act on them accordingly. Anyway.. bah..
