My servers don't show in the master list

Some time ago I had a bunch of servers called "[Etherworlds] [*gamemode*] *serverName*". These servers were visible in the master list until Skulltag disappeared/moved here, so what happened? All servers are set to use "master.zandronum.com:15300" as the master-server.

IP for all servers is 192.116.64.47.

i dont think they moved the Master Server yet, so to make the servers appear is just return the old master server adress, "master.skulltag.net:15300"

Master is currently down. I cannot predict when it will be back up, so you have to be patient.

Has anyone compiled their own master? It's in the source drop, right? If not there's this http://gstmaster.sourceforge.net/

Anyone can make a makeshift master server. All they have to do is make a list of the IPs that send the server packet, and reply to any other packet with a list of the IPs. The ban stuff wouldn't work, but it's zarking odd people don't have a few backup servers going soon as the main master goes down.

You'd think at least one of the devs would toss us a bone so we can get a master binary running on one of the server farms temporarily. Too bad they're distracted by the rep system instead. At least we know what's important.

So is the master currently working? Seems generally ok, but I experience some odd behavior, like: shut down my servers, delete IDE cached list, update from master and receive some list WITHOUT any of my servers (this part is OK). Then start my servers, see these three in the list (always ONLY these servers, since transition to Zandronum):

Then shut down all servers again, refresh and STILL GET off-line servers SHOWN in the list (not working though :)). The "lost" servers disappear from the list only when removing them from ide.ini.
Also, I tried to start servers one-by-one and update after each server (just to test if master is working and returns list correctly) and still get three servers (picture above), even when other servers are started before them. Firewall settings were not changed (and I tested, servers are working if I connect directly to them).

If master is down (looks like it's not), then what gives me the new list when I delete saved servers from IDE config? And if it's working, how to get rid of this bug?
Or the master is up but does just return some dummy list, not accepting new servers?
And this doesn't seem like local IDE bug, as anyone sees the same three servers (or no servers at all).

For me servers for zandronum doesn't show. In log I got:

[14:30:40] Error: Master server for Zandronum: Could not fetch a new server list from the master because not enough time has past.

What the heck? Is Master offline? My friend gets servers normally.
