Axis & Allies .org 2022 Support Drive

Welcome to the 2022 Axis & Allies .org support drive.

2022 Goal is 100 Patrons

Current patrons: 54

Several costs for running this site have gone up in 2022. For instance hosting went up and now we have to pay for our Gmail (Google for Work) account, which used to be free for over a decade.

This support drive will end on December 31, 2022 and the next one will begin in 2023.

Amount raised: $1755.50 ($2622.50 in 2019)
Number of 2022 unique patrons: 54 (47 in 2021, 90 in 2016)
(last update Jan. 3, 2023)

Thanks!

If you get your badge and are not listed, it likely means I forgot so just send me a friendly reminder.

Sorry folks, there’s some unknown problem with the 2022 and 2020 badges. It’s going to take some time to figure out what’s going on – it’s likely a bug.

@panther It has to do with the bug.

Hi all, I’m going to work on this over the long weekend. Thank you for your patience.

Hi all just catching up on the badges. It looks like at worst, I’ll be updating once a month. I would hope to apply the badges faster than that but it seems that monthly is a goal I can actually achieve.

@the-captain I like this idea a lot but I don’t have a lot of options on NodeBB to do something special like this. There was a 3rd party plugin but then it feel behind updates and is no longer usable.

I would have to write something myself and I don’t have time at the moment. So in the meantime, you’ll just have to encourage your gaming buddies to donate. :wink:
