On the summons, the server didn't write down anything near the bottom of the summons, such as that 1. "as an individual defendant" 3. on behalf of, 4. by personal delivery on (date):

So I did get the summons, but can I use this to my advantage somehow?

I don't think so. It looks like the court is already considering sanctions on the plaintiff for not getting you served. The likely outcome is the process server will file a Proof of Service, and that will be that. In my wife's case it took a week for the process server to file the PoS, but I've seen other cases on line where there was a month or more before the PoS got filed with the court.

Most states have laws regarding how long an affidavit of service can be filed after a party is served. New York it must be filed within 14 days. I'm sure other jurisdictions have similar codes in place whether it be 30 days 10 days etc etc.
