If it is not listed correctly on GT, you're welcome to claim it and adjust it yourself. Or, if you are not the owner, you can mention it to the person who is.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

Any chance that GameTracker will update its GeoIP database? Because other GeoIP databases don't have this issue.

For example this server (not claimed) is listed as Australian:
http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/108.61.119.170:27015/

But it's actually located in the USA:
https://geoiptool.com/?ip=108.61.119.170

GameTracker periodically refreshes its GeoIP databases. However, we do not have a time that will happen next or if it will impact your server.
