Server Upgrade and Fundraising.
The draft made it painfully clear that we are overdue for a hardware upgrade. The current server is now 4.5 years old and just doesn't cut it on high demand days. It was suggested in this thread that we raise some money and upgrade the server ASAP.. hopefully before training camp.
I have done a ton of research and found a solution that will only increase our monthly costs by $40-$50 but our upgrade costs will be an additional $500 due to running two servers concurrently for a month and setup fees. So, if anyone is interested, feel free to click the green DONATE button. I will try to make sure everybody that does gets marked as a SUPPORTER but if I miss you, just post here and remind me. Here is where we are right now... I'm changing the thermometer graphic so we can see it go up but the actual goal was $500 and hasn't changed. I'll look for a better graphic.

If you need to put a wig on the new server, I don't care. Just upgrade her !

What the hell is going on here? Do we need to put together a tech group again to get this sucker figured out and back up to speed?

No, this is all part of the arduous process of moving massive amounts of data around on an older server that doesn't have the room for it. It will get resolved soon though.

I'm sure Austin is working tirelessly in preparation for the season.
And not at all drinking, watching TV, and saying "**** this shit".

Actually I am clearing off my schedule as much as I can for the actual file migration coming ASAP. Gonna be a bitch, not looking forward to it. We'll effectively be running two servers most of this month just in case the new one turns out to be a disaster, we will have this one to fall back on.

Did one of the squirrels powering the CP server die or something?

Will the upgrade be done before the season starts? Going to be bad on game day if not. Last couple days have been bad.
