We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

An Amazon Buffista-funding link would be great, especially with Christmas/Hannukah/Winter Solstice shopping coming up.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think a general Amazon link in the Funding/Donations section of the FAQ is a good idea, but putting it on the front page seems a bit crass to me.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I don't think How To Donate needs to be any more prominent that that

On this, though, I know that I go through pretty extreme cycles of having/not having money, and it seems as though whenever we do need money for something, I can never contribute. I mean, I know I can send money to Jesse's paypal (it is still Jesse, right?) and have it contribute, but it would be nice to have the option.

Thanks for all the fish.

How has the board been holding up under the deathmatches?

Another note about the fundraising section of the FAQ -- the CafePress link should be updated to this one, which contains ALL of the various Buffista CafePress storeids.

If Buffy Quotables goes over 10,000 in the Death Matches, are we just going to let it play out, rather than open a new thread? It would be nice to have them all together.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The system will close it automatically. Of course, one of the stompies could go in and reopen it, but I don't know what would happen when the next post is made. We could try.

Oh, I thought stompies closed the threads. Sorry.

There's code to close it when the thread reaches 10,000 posts. Stompies can also manually open and close threads. I just don't know if the automatic close routine would kick in if we reopened the thread for posting after 10,000. ita would know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, I know I can send money to Jesse's paypal (it is still Jesse, right?) and have it contribute, but it would be nice to have the option.

It is still me, but now you can send $$ to donations@buffistas.org, all official-like.
