Upcoming server bills Aug 2022

[shaitan]

So, I came across a decent dedicated server deal, supposedly it'll be $37.49/month. I'm thinking it might be a good replacement for the regular Marathon VPS we've had for a couple of years. As you know the Marathon VPS can be laggy(cpu wise) with 30+ people. I didn't lock us into a contract on that one, and it wouldn't have saved any money this time(with that current discount).

I figure I'll poke about and slowly get things running on it. I'm not too sure about ditching the current VPS, especially with it's pricing(plus all of the other non-renegade stuff we have running on it). The "Temp Marathon PC" we've been using this summer; I think we'll keep it for one more month(it's due in 3 days).

We have a little over a month to gather that $383.86 for the regular Marathon VPS.

Anyway, here's what we have, spent, and need coming up:

 

Jul 23, 2022 = $87.48(37.49/month+50 setup fee) OVH Marathon PC for possible replacement Marathon VPS. 
Jul 23, 2022 = $23.98 for two Windows Server 2012 license keys(for ovh pc + a spare)

In Paypal  7-27-2022 = 
$459.17

Jul 26, 2022 = $65.48  - Temp Marathon PC.
Jul 27, 2022 = $26.45  - TeraCopy license for servers(makes moving 400gb in files easy)
Aug 01, 2022 = $107.98 - Ark, Terraria, & Backups + MC PC's.
Aug 13, 2022 = $99.50  - iDrive backups(10TB).
Aug 23, 2022 = $37.49  - OVH Marathon PC
Sep 01, 2022 = $107.98 - Ark, Terraria, & Backups + MC PC's.
Sep 08, 2022 = $383.86 - Marathon VPS(yearly).
Oct 01, 2022 = $37.49 - OVH Marathon PC
Sep 28, 2022 = $40.00  - Website Donation plugin.
Nov 01, 2022 = $84.00  - Website host.
Nov 01, 2022 = $107.98 - Ark, Terraria, & Backups + MC PC's.
Nov 01, 2022 = $37.49  - OVH Marathon PC
Nov 28, 2022 = $40.00  - Website(they upped it $15, I didn't notice the last time).

 

Green = enough in paypal

Red = lottsa money needed

Yellow = not paid for yet

StrikeThrough = paid for

P.S. the "OVH Marathon PC" is in Canada, just like this summer one we've been using.

P.P.S the  $107.98 and/or $37.49 PC's may be going up in price by 10% corporate bullshit "inflation". I don't know for sure, but we got an email about it, and our stuff may fall into that category. As of December it'll be $42.50 instead of the $37.49(ovh).

August to September 7th bills we'll need $293-$300 to get us paid for on the $383.86. Slowly getting some things working on the new OVH pc(pain in the ass so far), but still keeping that regular Mara for the year.

Are you getting the new server thingy ? Since I think you have enough now ? 

[shaitan]

We have that one mostly set up for Renegade...it's the one you've been using since Thursday(I think).It's the cheapo $37.50/mo OVH one, but we're keeping that $383/yr NFO one we've had for a few years, as a backup for ddos/etc. Which, Manuel & Ice187dna already had to swap things to yesterday during another ddos attack. Moneywise, I think we're set right now(til the end of this month)...I haven't really double-checked, but it looks like what we needed(otherwise I would've put the extra on my credit).

 

*Friday Edit* We should be good up through the $84/yr payment Nov 1st.

Bloody wankers all around. OVH didn't just charge us that extra 10% "inflation, they removed our 25% off deal. So, atm that Renegade pc is $54.99/month. I wish I had kept the NFO summer pc then, it was a way better machine for $10 more.

SoYouStart whacked us, too. I didn't see those emails until now. Ark/MC/Terraria pc's will cost us $118.78/month, instead of $107.98/month.

After Tomas's donation, we only need $5 or so for January's payment...currently. That's after this "inflation" bullshit, and December already being paid for.

Do you need donations or just need $5 more ? how much for january ?

[shaitan]

We're actually ahead, that extra needed was for the month afterward(at the time I posted this).

Also, just got a reply after the support ticket:

We're still getting that 10% upcharge, but it should be around $42.49/mo instead of the $55...and we'll get what we overpaid back.
