By making a regular contribution on Patreon, you will allow us to produce better content, cover more games and pay for better web hosting (which means our site won't go down anymore when we write popular stories like Gross Gore's Twitch ban).
We have switched over to a faster, more stable and reliable managed web host but the costs for this are high (almost £1,000 per year). See the bottom of this page for full info on where your donations will go.
We are not expecting much, but any donation you can offer would be massively appreciated - and we have a bunch of support rewards on offer too.
