City Council Cipher Posted July 29, 2023 City Council Share Posted July 29, 2023 Hello everyone! As always with these posts, I’d like to drop a quick reminder that there are more ways to support Homecoming than just through donations. For a general overview of the different ways you can help Homecoming, check out this thread. Beginning next month, Amazon Web Services (AWS) will be updating their pricing and limitations for SES which we are currently using for outgoing email. We suspect that this will increase our AWS bill by around $3.00 - $5.00 per month, but the exact amount will vary depending on usage. Last Month: July 2023 Last month we accepted $4,521.75 in donations, $37.07 over our target for the month. As always, any additional funding remaining at the end of each month is put towards our operating expenses for the following month or additional expenses for the current month. Here is the breakdown of our expenses in July: $4,372.43 for our hardware infrastructure from OVH $121.26 for our Google G-Suite services $25.00 for our Air instance from Paperspace $19.25 for the AWS EC2 instance serving our email $9.73 for security / administration software (redacted) This Month: August 2023 The donation target for August 2023 is $4,618.33. Here is a breakdown of how the funds are allocated: $4,372.43 for our hardware infrastructure from OVH $121.57 for our Google G-Suite services $98.40 for three 1-year domain renewals $25.00 for our Air instance from Paperspace $19.25 for the AWS EC2 instance serving our email $10.00 to renew some of our website assets $9.73 for security / administration software Our donation system will be open as of the time of this post with a donation target of $4,618.33 and will automatically close once that target is met. - The Homecoming Team Cipher City Council If you need help, please submit a support request here or use /petition in-game.

Marine X Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Another $25 well spent. 1 3 2 " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..."

Dallayna Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Dropped my way too small $20 into the hat as well. Once again, thank you all so much for keeping this game running. You're total legends! 😊 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraxus Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Threw a few Quatloos into the bucket, which feels like small compensation for the enjoyment I get out of this game. 1 3 2 What was no more, is REBORN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
