As predicted, the dosh didn't turn up. BUT, I've seen the payment in and it clears Tuesday. Hope the leftovers get a reasonable interest rate.
I'm amazed and, not amazed. This has been a truly wonderful place ever since I've known it. And I didn't have any doubt the money would be raised, just not sure of how long it would take.
P.S. Thanks biker - appreciated.

I had no doubt either that the money would be raised. I was thinking a week tops to raise the money. How wrong I was, and I'm glad. It still is amazing when you think about it. :thumb:

Naturally, we expect 0.00% downtime from this point forward, you realize.

Sweet Christ $4000. Last night I was looking at it and it wasn't halfway up the bar. Now I look at it and it's nearly double the maximum.
I love TTLG.
I do have one question: does pitching in after the fact still net you the rewards? I didn't have any money this month but will next month, and I want that custom title.

Oh, absolutely!

So I take it we met the deadline to only have to pay for 9 months to start, instead of a full year? Which means more money for next year!
Yeah, I know, just thinking aloud, putting the pieces together.:p

well I just spoke with my OH on the phone and you now have another donation, not much but it's what I've got
P.S. if David and Saam want to buy a beer with my donation I have no objection I think you guys earned it

Splendid Work TTLG!
Thank you especially to David for the leadership and to all the other admins who work behind the scenes. I hope the new hosting arrangement makes their work easier.
I'd be curious how many people donated - I thought we were a mere handful but there must have been several hundred participants.
Of course this moment represents a great opportunity for the members of TTLG, whom have impressed me endlessly - you see, I am actually a Nigerian Prince and when my family was sent into exile we managed to stash 3.1 bazillion Euros in a local bank. All we need is a network of dedicated, smart but kooky gamers, to provide access to their western bank accounts, through which the multitudinous millions may flow...

Heh heh. Server aftershocks.

Yes, TTLG was inaccessible to you for about 20 minutes, but it was intentional as I turned off the webserver to optimise one of the database tables that was giving me trouble.
