If you are still looking for someone - I'll pass the info on to the AI people. I know the AI Clan tries to do a gamenight about once a week. BUT - we've discovered a couple of things.

1.Only about half the people who play in our servers actually like gamenights.
2. Unless you have the fast download and...
3.you are sure the maps work correctly PRIOR to the gamenight - you're only gonna piss a bunch of people off.
4. It's about impossible to "plan fun".
5. People forget about organized activities no matter how often you remind them and how frequently you advertise.

If your goal is to get more people playing in custom map servers or something along those lines - all you need to do is get a group of people who are willing to put the time in by playing in those servers - and walla! You'll have your popular server in no time. I can tell you what maps are popular with the AI crowd... I've tested over 2000 maps.
