Making impossible promises is something i myself enjoy doing but eh. I hope you get things figured out soon and i hope the technical difficlties you seem to be experiencing just go the hell away and die quietly cant wait for Megatokyo to be back. Anyway we understand dont wory about it and good luck when life is screwing you luck is all you have.

Actually, more readers need to be encouraged to snap their own copies of megatokyo archives rather than constantly haranguing the server for strips. It’d certainly reduce the load.

Sounds like Fred is in that transition from a “happy hobby to an actual business” limbo wherein volunteer pals have all the best intentions in the world but … but things can get tense because now its your income at stake.

Obviously I don’t know the details of your agreements with your friends of the dark arts, but I wish you luck and don’t overstress friendships if that is indeed pertinent to the situation.
People usually aren’t formal enough when defining business relationships with friends.

I was feeling guilty that I snarfed every single megatokyo and stored it locally.

Now a certain quote by Linus Torvalds is running through my head:

“Real men don’t do backups, they just put their work on an FTP site and let the world mirror it. ” -Linus Torvalds
