Re: Help Support JBoard!
We also have someone who wishes to remain anonymous who has volunteered to cover two months, so I have assigned them March and May (although for alliteration purposes giving Anonymous to April and August would have worked much better).
Anyway, as a reminder, this money goes to Brian to help defray the costs of hosting JBoard (and he hosts J-Archive as well) on his server. It doesn't cover all of his costs, and for his continued in-kind donations to this little world of ours we owe him a big thanks as well.
February -> BigDaddyMatty
March -> Anonymous
April -> MarkBarrett
May -> Anonymous
June -> [open]
July -> ElendilPickle
August -> [open]
September -> [open]

When is he going to disclose his tax returns? We all know this five dollars per month is going straight to the hidden account in the Cayman Islands.

You could move Mark to May and you'd have another alliteration, although Mark may have wanted April in particular.alietr wrote:We also have someone who wishes to remain anonymous who has volunteered to cover two months, so I have assigned them March and May (although for alliteration purposes giving Anonymous to April and August would have worked much better).

The best thing that Neil Armstrong ever did, was to let us all imagine we were him.

I would like to sponsor a month in memory of Mrs OS and gratitude to the J!Board community.

Re: Help Support JBoard!
Thanks to all who have posted or PM'd condolences. This was the first mention of it here.
On the J!timeline, Mrs OS's death fell between Cindy Stowell's death and her first televised game. Those episodes were tough to watch.

Re: Help Support JBoard!
Time to revive this thread. Due to the change in hosting, keeping up the payments to support JBoard kind of fell by the wayside. A wonderful anonymous benefactor has brought us current, however, so we have up through January covered. In order to to pay our hosting fees, I am asking that the donation be increased to $10. Blue Lion has already claimed April. If you would like the high honor and distinction of being the Boardie of the Month, please make your claim here. The Management (and all the rest of you wonderful Boardies) thank you profusely.

Thank you for reviving the thread. As a relative noob, I had no idea how the board was supported.

Re: Help Support JBoard!
I'm bumping this since Woof has been on way too long, we need to get some money to Robert, and I have no idea what the queue looks like at this point. $10/month supports us. Such a deal! Anyone?

Re: Help Support JBoard!
I'd still like to take a month in memory of Mrs OS and to thank this community.
To fill some of the details I didn't mention upthread, she passed in Dec 2016 from complications of ALS. I don't think I've recovered yet.
I want to thank J!Board for providing much needed distraction through difficult times.
