@beelee we don't get that much money and the money we do get should stop going to a $25/month server when that could pay for half of all the rest of TripleA for a full month. We NEED to stop paying that.
For replacement, labor is needed. Labor/time is all far too expensive to reasonably buy, so volunteer efforts and people helping coordinate, test and validate is all really helpful.
The new dice server is already live at: https://dice.triplea-game.org/, the latest TripleA uses that dice server. Give it a try, it might mostly work just fine. AFAIK its emails go to spam, but are sent.
