JoinServrer.gui: queryMaster: Demo vs. Starter.FPS

I've noticed something and just can't understand where the difference is being made. When I run the example from the default SDK main.cs line(6) "demo", and I enter the FPS example joinServer.gui and query the Master Server, I can find a few examples.

Now, when I go and edit the

$defaultGame = "demo";

to

$defaultGame = "starter.fps";

, and then relaunch the demo.exe and start searching for servers from this 'game's' joinServer.gui, I can't find the ones I'd just noted before the edit, and I can only find my MP server as a LAN connection?!? Is this the location to properly change my default game? I can't understand why one gui's control searches correctly and the other in the starter.fps only searches for LAN's??

I thought it might be my firewall or router, but always whenever I search for servers on the Master List from the demo, I'm successful and not otherwise???

thanks.
