Ok.
I don't think you should shut down server.

Even if you are no longer interested in TOP, i believe that it can run off donations :)

If you have a counter at homepage saying how long server time has left, people will always donate to keep server alive.

Don't worry, as long as there are any community supporting it (like Taiwanese community now) I won't shut it down.

Well, I don't believe it, because during time 6 months I was accepting donations, only 1 person decided to donate. Reason why it was closed is because it didn't work.

If people want to donate, they can declare so in this thread (like you did), so when I see at least few people interested then I will open donations again. I Hope that this make some sense.

They only don't donate because they don't think server will die.

If you have banner saying "Time remaining on server lease: x days. Click here to donate" in the advertisement bar,
people will always replenish it when it gets to less than 7 days.

OK, so donations are back. All money will be used for TOP related expenses. Hosting costs currently about 12USD per month. Also if we have extra money I may use it for prices for some tournament (I am dreaming about something as big as TTO2 by harddrop).
