SUPPORT THE MUNICIPALITY!

[J. M. Pescado]

It is that time of the year again, where, like last year, we approach the server bill date. Do you want to see another year of Awesomeness?

SUPPORT THE MUNICIPALITY!
We're on to you.

You may also optionally indicate that you would like your contribution to also be used towards the Drunk Ellatrue Beer Fund for beer for Ellatrue in #grah, or for the Moar Computar Fund for prominent MATY citizens in need of MOAR COMPUTAR.

[Assmitten]

Ellatrue needs 'ritas! I can get behind this cause.

Are bribes being offered this year? I'm definitely going with whoever offers the best bribes.

[J. M. Pescado]

This isn't a contest, Spaceface.

No bribes, only the stick.  I believe what Fearless Leader is saying is that it is time to kick in some IRL dough to financially support the servers.  The slightly veiled threat is that, if no money is forthcoming, the server and Awesomeworld disappears.

Avert the apocalypse.  Donate yer spawn's college fund.

That said, can we assume that donors end up in the aristocracy, as in previous years?  Perhaps that's what the spacecadet meant.

Is the MATY gift shop still running?

[J. M. Pescado]

Yeah, you know, same thing if you want that. Remember, though: No hurry. This isn't the old KathyInsimenator, and we are forward-facing. We have about 3-4 months for this, and if the fact that Hecuboss is no longer present results in more Paypal issues, we have plans for an emergency drive in place, and a recovery plan which will mean we won't need to do this again next year if that happens.

Is the MATY gift shop still running?

I have no idea. Probably not, since Hecuboss is dead. You need to show up in #grah so I can asks you questions, though.

Will report in as soon as I get home.

Excellent!  Now I can get that MOAR FIGHT t-shirt for Youngman to wear to school.

I wear mine at least once a week since getting it in October--it was my birthday present to myself. I LOVE it. It's held up really well.

[spaceface]

Yes, I meant the aristocracy or webspace thing.

[J. M. Pescado]

Why, the wonders of the Buttbucket have made you thirst for your own Spaceface Bucket?

[spaceface]

Oh, for a tiny piece of the interwebs to call my own... 

[Assmitten]

The beauty of Buttbucket is that it does not censor, unlike Tinypic, which cares not for me and pizza dick boxes.

Speaking of, I have to see how Ella's punishment contenders are doing and if I can find more....

[moxyc]

Thank you so much for such an awesome site.  My check is on the way.  This is only the second time (MTS being the first) that I've felt a website worthy of receiving my hard earned money.  Kudos

Snip...

That said, can we assume that donors end up in the aristocracy, as in previous years?  Perhaps that's what the spacecadet meant.

What is considered a large enough donation to receive said enTITLEment?  I donated last go around, and received no comely nameage.  I presumed it was because the amount given was too trivial.  Also, since I don't post often, I assumed it could have been due to my lurkerness.  There are valid reasons for not posting much; The stuff I do know about gaming is much less than other, more-experienced gamers to offer much valuable input, and the stuff I don't know it actually quite amazing.   There is enough stoopid; I don't want to let it spill out from me too often...

Did you reply and request your title? That was part of the deal I think. To come forward and ask for title or server space.

[Alex]

This thread lists the titles one would receive based on the cumulative sum of their donations back then, if that's what you wanted to know.

[socurious]

That's a pretty logical procedure, but nope.  I can pretty much guarantee I did no follow through.  Perhaps I didn't want to grovel for the title?  (Is it funny to anyone else that I have no problem with doing so now?)  It's a given that I didn't need server space either...

Well, it is well known that Pescado's Psychotic Mind Reading Helmet (Tin Foil Antenna Sold Separately) has been in the shop for a while now. In conclusion, thanks for your donation, you are a muffin, have a nice day.

[sewinglady]

I have given tribute from my puny paypal balance (I've obviously been lacking in my offerings to the eBay Gods of late)...

Just because I could not have played the Sims2 then or the Sims3 now without the mod(s) from here. In fact, my donation may have been entirely because of my utter appreciation for several years of fairly blissful playing of Sims2 thanks to the 'nobuskers' hack alone...

[kiki]

I'm definitely interested in donashun (especially if it gets me a title) - I missed the last cheezserver run. I haz my own bukkit though.

No, it's more annoying than anything else. You waited a year to go "Oh hey, where's my title?" because you couldn't follow directions the first time?

Wish I could give this time around (I did last time, but for karma, not shinies) but I still has no job.

Well, we will balance out. Last year at this time I was underemployed; this year I can has job.
