There have been a decent number of bans recently where people will get banned for being 'AFK' at the start of an AL due to the server being misconfigured or expired. An easy way to fix this would be to ping the server and, if you can ping it, check the password via RCON before starting to issue bans, so that if the password is different from the one set by TF2C, the bans won't be issued.

the server password is checked every minute prior to starting a lobby.  That is the "reinitialize server" use case.
