: Just a reminder that tonight's the night that we'll be offline for a little while. When we come back up, I figure that'll be a good time to officially unleash the new checklist mass-add interface.
Crud. I meant to set that post sticky a couple days ago. :x
Oh well, done now.
Thanks for the reminder, !
made a comment in my Frenzy forum group vaguely referencing some ideas for a Subeta help site/offsite guides I suggested she smail you. Just giving you a heads up in case she follows through and contacts you :). Also I accidentally pinged you instead of the user code...oops.
what she said
Haha, it is a bit of a learning curve! Honestly this is probably the pretty simple part of coding. Try getting into HTML and it’s okay for a while, but after you get past the basics, your head will spin XD I tried learning HTML for a while and I liked it, but I just never had enough time to devote to it and nothing to do with it really.
I would love to make a website similar to Subetalodge with a bunch of guides and holiday spreadsheets, so maybe I’ll have to get back into coding. Either that or see if Subetalodge staff are looking to collaborate shrug
what I said
Galadriel smail Georgie with your ideas, thoughts about what you want to do. She's always interested in ways to expand SubetaLodge. You can always smail me too if you're more comfortable with that, but Georgie's the one who makes the decisions, so I'd basically send it on to her anyway.

hmm. Speedsheets? IDK what they would even do? I mean, idk, lol. What would a holiday speedsheet do that a checklist doesn't do better?
the only thing I can think of is tracking info - like someone was trying to track the battle drops (not just the 5th drop) and they set up a google document that other people could also use to record their battles. Not that that's something we'd want on SubetaLodge, of course.
No real idea what exactly she's talking about (because it was a chat about HTML not help guides), but it can't hurt to listen.

Always willing to listen. You never know where an idea will end up!
: If y'all come up with something I can help with, let me know.
You can count on it.
Went to the FL near my new house. Reached in the freezer and pulled out a tub of Summer Breeze. Somehow by the time I got it home and out of the bag it magically turned into Cherry Vanilla :( Not that Cherry Vanilla isn't good, it just isn't Summer Breeze.
Very. It's a good thing I have lots of chocolate syrup!
So. guys. I have something to tell you. You know how I have been not able to work for like months and months now. And I have zero income. And of course, no savings or anything.
I have been trying to avoid having to tell you guys this. And put it off and off and off.
Anyway. It amounts to this. Subetalodge.org the domain name cancels on 8/5/2019. Since I can't pay it, we will be no more.
I am so so very sorry. You guys have been great. You have worked so hard and done so much and I love you all so much. And I can't thank you enough for everything. And a really HUGE thanks to Osterizer who has been paying our server costs for more than a year now.
how much does it cost?

: Crap. Now I need more Summer Breeze.
You're using GoDaddy, right? What's the amount? I've got some ideas.
You need summer breeze because I spoke? :P
It is $21.17. Not a large amount at all. Unless you have zero income :/
Are there any more expenses?
Can we do a crowdfunding and pay for few years ahead?
Just remember that you're not alone :)
: There are two expenses that we have. One is the cost of leasing the server that SubetaLodge runs on. That costs $120/year. The other is the cost of registering the SubetaLodge domain name so no one else can hijack it. That costs $21.17/year (according to Georgie).
That's it.
I'm paying the server costs out of pocket. I've avoided paying the domain name costs, too, because I feel like if I'm paying for everything, then it's not really Georgie's site anymore, and I want her to have some ownership in this since it's really her baby.
A GoFundMe isn't a bad idea, Marlboro.
Thanks for sharing, it's pretty a lot in a long term, I think we can be honest with the users and start a GoFundMe, I'm sure that many people will help, they love the site as much as we love it too, they invested on their lists a lot and everything.
We need to think for a long term, not to solve it for this year only, Georgie needs to have a quiet mind about the site, so if we can do a GoFundMe with a long term thinking, like the next 5 years and ask the amount, we may be able to get the donations.
We could also do something like to use the site, you have to pay a yearly membership fee of $1. I also think a GoFundMe could work as well.

IDK what other ideas you might have, O. I really am opposed to begging for money to stay open. Or to charge money to use. IDK how we would even handle that. There would have to be taxes and all kinds of weird stuff. Anyway, back to asking for money. People mocked us when we put up a donation button before. And I was the only person who donated money. How much more would they mock us now when they are already saying things like we better look out because Subeta is going to snatch our wig blah blah with the book lists and pet colors and all?
