I'm not sure that setting the server location in the server browser is strictly necessary, but hey, can't hurt can it?
If you set the dropdown box for server location in the server browser to US east, and add the port on the end, geeknights.game.nfoservers.com:27015, it should bring it up - that worked for me, at least.
Where am I meant to be entering "geeknights.game.nfoservers.com:27015"? In the console? In the server browser? Where can I just search for that server?
Shit, sorry mate, I didn't say properly how I did it - I used it to directly add the server to my favorites. Under the favorites tab in the server browser, there is an "Add a server" button, just chuck that whole bit you put in quotes right in there, and it should add it to your favorites for easy access.
The Steam Browser doesn't seem to see all servers. I haven't really investigated too much yet. The server is just called "GeekNights Official."
I just went to Favorites and manually added the server. I've never in my life had a "favorite" server disappear unless the server itself went down and never came back up.
I didn't want to scare away forumites just yet. It makes for fun when there are only a few human players jumping in to bots as they die.
The bots will up their difficulty automatically if they contribute too much to the win/kill rates.
They will also ALWAYS defer to humans for goals. So, if there is even one human alive, they will almost always NOT plant the bomb or defuse. They'll secure the area, but won't actually do it unless the human is very far away or dead.
I'll up them again once the server is more rockin.
I didn't need it as I was always the last player on my team alive. As the only player on the terrorist side, I always had the bomb. The bomb went off every time I planted it due to the counter-terrorists being stupid.

It says on the screen what to press for bot-jumping-into.

heh it also is funny because I've been playing Deus Ex, so I keep thinking I can take cover and push up against walls which doesn't work in CS.....obviously.
Had a few good rounds, but apparently my housemate started torrenting some shit, and my connection turned to butter, so I had to stop. Fuckin' good fun, though. Scott is good, Rym is marginally better. I'm bad, but I do not feel bad.
You didn't see the game I won on regular dust when it was just me and apsup. Not all maps are equally in my wheelhouse.
To be fair Scott showed some impressive P90 usage on Dust. I was like "Was that a speck of dust moving across my screen?" Nope, it was Scott, headshotting me with P90 from other side of the map.
Also, yes maps matter. Vertigo has lots of mid and close range combat and that's only range where I can even hit anybody. Long range battles I win pretty much only with luck.
For some reason, it would occasionally show me "FRC Apreche", but with Rym's pony avatar. Go figure.
Also, I got dumb for a bit, and decided to keep doing the same thing to try and catch Rym out - he got me every time. Normally, if it's dumb and it works, it ain't dumb, but...
I'm just happy I took both Rym and Scott down a few times. I'll call that a result.

I was waiting for the progression of:
1. Figuring out where I was coming from 2. Trying to camp me. 3. Getting flashed trying to camp me. ;^)

You never actually got me with the flash, surprisingly - every time I heard the tink of the grenade hitting things, I stepped out or turned away(which isn't ideal, but it'll do). And I also never did more than singe you a little with the firebottles, either.

I could up the bots, but that will make them better than most of the forumites in the short term.
