Planned changes for the next subscription:-I'm increasing the max players to 10. I'll cover the difference in cost myself.
-I'm going to try Nuclear Fallout's ping accelerator in hopes of helping our Australian and British friends get somewhat more acceptable latencies. But it's expensive, almost doubling the cost of a server over a 6 month period. We can try one for 2 or 3 months to see how effective it is.
-I'm changing the payment source from the TWHL Paypal account to my personal account. Why? Because I can't pay a subscription to Nuclear Fallout without a card linked to the account, and I only have one card. Switching my card between my personal account and TWHL's server account costs money and is extremely inconvenient. I hope you guys know me well enough by now to trust that I won't scam TWHL out of it's money.
So the new Paypal address to send donations to is
"World_Crafter@yahoo.com"-- same as my email address. I'll have a mod update the first post with the correct address.
New cost for 2 months (with accelerator):
