+1, it really is a great service that he's providing.

Just a quick question for Llama, how averse are you to sharing the code you've used for the Llamaserver?

There's got to be someone out there that might be able to dedicate more time to keeping a server up, or someone willing to spend the time migrating the entire thing to a more robust solution.

More robust solution seems like the best option. Given the heavy use of the Llama server, doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility for the entire Dom3 community could come up with the couple hundred bucks to get a dedicated amazon web services server instance.

Not sure what sort of computing power the Llamaserver currently has, but I'm guessing it's just an old CPU in Llamas basement. We could easily get the same performance in something that wouldn't shut off every other week for about $350.

I'm definitely do not have either the savy to pull this off or the time to teach myself how, but I'd certainly be willing to contribute some money towards the cause.

Agreed with everyone who has previously thanked Llama. Voluntarily hosting the server that has allowed us all to play Dominions together for years is an effort that goes beyond mere thanks, and I can't express enough gratitude for his efforts.

I'm with Torgon in that I don't have any technical savvy that would be required to host a more robust Dominions infrastructure, but I would be willing to contribute financially to such an effort.

There's a pay-pal option on Llama Server...
