syphi thought medals weren't added anymore

I'm guessing any new medals in this one have probably been in the works prior to their decision on medals. The TotH medals aren't new unfortunately, they're also re-used assets

Whole lot of "fix cosmetics"
Not a whole lot of "fix game breaking exploits"

I really wish I had a means of contact with anyone on the tf2 team so I could say "sv pure has been broken for 3+ years how do you not CARE"

TF2 update #3 for 9/23/19 (9/24/19 UTC):

Via HLDS:

Valve- Fixed error with certain mapcyclefile names for Windows dedicated servers

Rumor has it:

- In addition, it fixed a broken line break when Yukon's authors were updated to reflect Acegikmo's new name in #1.

- Holy crap! We're now on the *12th* update of the year so far now. This one, for server operators, is OPTIONAL

- Size is close to 125 KB
