Wait, you got something?
I got one of those slimy things that you throw against the wall and it slowly crawls down. But there was a peanut stuck to it.

When I got close enough to inspect it, I think it moved. So I'm not sure.

Can you give a good reason?

Can you give a good reason? It's an incentized donation. However, I just reviewed the current offers and they all suck. They use to have gaming related offers (like buy game XYZ and it gave a $20 cut).

Server is due on October 10th. The book will not generate money until after that (YAY BAD TIMING), but I don't think it will be enough to cover the difference, so I'll just deposit that after the server for next year.
We'd LIKE to get a new server this year as this one is feeling it and it's had a ridiculous uptime (i liek new hardware). It will actually cost less to get a new server. Anyway, we're at $800 and change in the paypal account. I say $800 and change because they're going to charge fees anyway and it's literally $800 and change, so let's just call it an even $800.
With the coupons available TODAY, the server comes out to $1,190.37. Who knows what will be available in a week or two, but we're going to need about a weeks leadtime to swap over without any major downtime. (For the record, renewing the current server looks like it would run $1,587.16 - obviously this is a stupid thing to renew considering it has a last gen processor anyway).
Any help would be fantastic, otherwise I'm going to have to switch to month to month which costs a good deal more and is incredibly stupid (read: STUPID) in the long run.
The current server expires on 10/10. So, all things considered, we have til 10/3 to make $390.37.
Thanks again, everyone!

White Elephant Sale?
We all donate an unwanted/unused item. Post pictures and description of said item in one thread with a suggested price/donation or maybe even take bids through PM's. Money is paid by buyer/winner directly into F13's paypal account. Item is mailed from seller to buyer upon confirmation of payment being received.
Only out of pocket cost to seller is donating the item and the shipping fee.
I think it would be easy to administer and fun. And since no money is changing hands between posters (it all goes straight to the F13 paypal account) there shouldnt be any hard feelings as long as sellers are prompt in mailing the items.

Sweet idea. I still have my original SWG disks, they must be worth at least 100 dollars.

I think I finally threw out my ce box sometime this year. Did they ever let other people wear sunglasses (I cancelled the first month)? Maybe we can twist this thread into another swg thread.
Oh and I put $50 in the kitty.

$100 toward another year of cynical f13 goodness donated. Also, please don't send me your unwanted stuff -- I've spent the last few weeks throwing out a lot of unwanted stuff and I'm not anxious to obtain more right now.

I am curious to know about the hardware that's looking to be purchased. Is it a desktop machine, or a fully fledged rack mount, or a 'dell workstation' type sytem? Just wonderin!

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

We use GoDaddy which uses 1U rackmounts, iirc. Depending on what you get of course. The box will be a new 2.16 dual core with 2GB of RAM on a 100MBit connection. Fully dedicated. GoDaddy may suck for a lot of things but their bandwidth and uptime is just great.

Status? I paid for the server because we wanted to get it a little early to move everything over without rushing. Paid the rest required myself. Thanks taleril!
