Hi folks,

Those of you who've been around since 2013 may remember we collectively pre-paid for the next 5 years of hosting for this site, which worked out very well. That ran out in 2018 (maths), and I've been paying for the site myself since then -- but I'd like to see if we can do another crowd-sourced fundraiser to keep the site afloat and ad-free. My goal is to pre-pay for the next 3 years (which would be £180) so we don't have to do this again any time soon.

If you'd like to contribute, please go to https://www.apterous.org/c4c_donate.php -- I will be very grateful! As an extra incentive anyone who donates can also get a @c4countdown.co.uk email address making you the envy of all your friends.

Thanks!
Charlie

How much of a donation for sanctum access?

But generally yes, I imagine I will make a donation, since I seem to post here more than anyone else.

I hate this place. It's an absolute shit show and I barely post any more. It used to be so awesome. These days I log on with some vague sense of excitement (that dissipates on a daily basis) and then watch that excitement drip away as I click through pages and pages of new posts from people I've never heard of talking about the most goddamn boring drivel ever. Donated!

This is on my list to do, just need to remember while I'm not on my work computer.

Thank you everyone. We raised quite a bit more than I expected (total amount TBD) so that should cover us for at least another four or five years assuming prices stay the same. Woo!
