Does it work?
Seta sv_master1 "Master.Maverickservers.com"

i have added to server.cfg

set sv_master2 "master.cromctf.com"

set sv_master1 "Master.Maverickservers.com"

and (209.212.157.150 master.quake3arena.com) to host file

all works fine but 9 servers but i guess better than none

My ingame browser fills up again with 76 Excessive Servers

I did not download an alternative EXE.

Omly added one line in my hosts-file under Windows XP professional SP3:
[ c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc] - file hosts

188.72.250.61 master.quake3arena.com

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In my q3config the following master-servers are defined :
seta sv_master1 "master3.idsoftware.com"
seta sv_master2 "master0.gamespy.com"
seta sv_master3 "etmaster.idsoftware.com"
seta sv_master4 "master.quake3arena.com"
seta sv_master5 "master0.excessiveplus.net"

This is working out for me, give it a try.... does this work for you to ?
(in other Windows versions, your hosts file will be located elsewhere)

isnt working for me on win7 x64

actually its working wrong hosts file xD

you can also add servers you played in favourites section by using "\server1 #ip" cmd
u can add as much as u want for instance:

"\server1 123.41.111.23 "

"\server2 254.12.55.xx"

"\server3 xxxxxxxxxxx" and so on

after adding these go to Multiplayer section and then Select the "SERVERS" as "Favourites"
in this way u can see only the servers you usually play
