Server donations

... and we're back in the black. Many thanks to everyone who contributed.

After just one day we've covered our costs to the end of 2020 - very much appreciated everyone, especially after such a difficult and crazy year!

Sorry but things got away from me 3 months ago and I never entered the server rental costs in to LM2. That means 6 months of rental cost just added to the system.

Thanks in advance if you're able to support us

This is becoming yearly tradition.

Donated. Thanks to keeping up the site and servers.

I've also donated as a measure of thanks for the work that gets done here. It is really appreciated from my side that we get the space here to race on such a regular basis, even if I can't do as many of them as I would like.....

I have now also made a donation via Paypal. Sorry guys, I know it's not your favourite way to donate, but the donation text is once again hard to understand for me and I don't have the other providers to donate to.

Thx for all your work!

Glück auf!

Donated too with a big thanks to all your work!

Thanks, everyone - despite these tough times we've made it back to a small surplus for the quarter.

As you may have read in this thread, it's been decided to discontinue the renting of a dedicated server at the end of this month, in favour of individually hosted servers. Between reduced grid sizes, some series ending and improvements in the quality of domestic broadband, there isn't a strong case for a paid server any more.

I want to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone who has contributed, not just to this round of funding but over the many years prior. SRou would not still be here today without you. And another big "thank you" to Picnic who has worked tireless behind the scenes for the best part of two decades to keep the server running.

Thank you everyone!
