Itâs great this month.
It will probably be great for one more after.
But we do have an insanely expensive server to maintain. It is clear that to play this game at all, you need an expensive server or it sucks badly. If we canât find a steady source of funding, this server is closing in on a thousand dollars a year to run.
It may be fun for a little while, but I donât think we can support this game for much longer without broad community support (money).

Ad money goes to gameservers.com (yes, no caff?), which is just whatever is left of our TF2 players. So does the paypal link.
As far as I know, this is funded by us giving money to surf, and surf paying for it (he has paid for almost all of it, by himself).
Remember, this is at best a few members trying to splinter out and try and new game. Half of the mods and leadership haven't made an effort to buy the game or support the title, even when it was $20. There just isn't much interest besides a few of us, and it simply isnât sustainable.

Versus, you and I each sent $20, that's the server rite there. =x (At least for the discount thingyz duration)
Personally I'm willing and able to chip in $10-$20 a month if needed. (See below)
Also keep in mind we not only tried getting one server at the worst time in this games so-far short history of stupidness, but we tried getting TWO servers at the worst time in this games so-far short history of stupidness. Give it the benefit of the doubt for now that once we get a server that's actually running the proper version of the game and visible to all properly, that the above stated points might be rendered moot.

P.S. More badgering of BRBu's to buy this game.
P.P.S. Much moer incessant badgering of diglett to get a fucking mic
