Hey guys. Some of you are much better than I am with this sort of thing but have we considered setting BP up as a content creator on Brave network?

Brave.com
check that out and see if you like it as a browser (very similar to Chrome). Net of the story is you get crypto (BAT) for normal surfing behavior that you can either redeem or donate to content creators. So in my mind, if BP is a content creator and a few of us adopt the browser and donate the free coins we get anyway then it's a pretty easy way for BP to make some money.
There will need to be a little work on BP's part to get set up on Brave, set up a crypto wallet and such but it's minutes of clicks. Nothing major.

Yep, I just took pictures of the items, posted them in a new thread, let people bid on them for a week or two (either in the thread or via PMs), and then shipped directly to the high-bidders after they sent the money to @LongwoodBuck. Items only need to be shipped once that way.

With football season now in full swing, it's once again time to consider a donation to BuckeyePlanet to help defray the costs of operating this site.
All of the information necessary to make a donation is set forth in detail in the initial post in this thread, and of course you can still make a donation by clicking on the Donation tab at the top of this page.
I am going to pledge $10.00 per win, $1.00 point, and $0.10 per yard, so at the "halfway point" of the season I am donating....

5 wins x $10.00 = $50.00
219 points x $1.00 = $219.00
1266 yards X $0.10 = $126.60
Total donation = $467.60
Please do what you can to help out!219 points x $1.00 = $219.00

Providing insurance if Michigan some how pulls out a miracle.
1) Michigan wins = $100
2) defensive/ special teams td = $100
3) Harbaugh and Day get into a fist fight. That’s $500 regardless who takes the ass whooping.

Hey everyone, I made some updates to the first post, or you can read them here:
EDITED FOR 2021! Please see key updates in BOLD.
Buckeye Planeteers, Friends, Guests, Football Fans all,
As many of you may have noticed, there hasn't been a concerted fundraising effort for some time. No, BuckeyePlanet is not not magically self sustaining.
So, we need to raise some money, and we need to do it and it needs us to last the offseason!
1. We need to pay the hosting fees which are $250+ a month. (And if we do the Math from last year, the $5000 goal as too low.
2. We are in need of software upgrades, the number here is on the order of $1000 for labor and licensing. This is still outstanding so, that's why we have to up the number.
3. We need to raise enough money to cover hosting fees through next September or so.
So, how much do we need right now to take care of those 3 items. And this is sort of the MINIMUM number to keep the site online:
$5000.
$7000!
How do you donate?
Let's count the ways:
1) Checks/money order/cashier's check made out to Joanna Bryant. Mailed to 393 Caldy Court Dublin, OH 43017. Ask them to write their BP username on the check.
2) PayPal: [email protected] (when possible, please include their BP username in the notes section)
3) Venmo: @Joanna-Bryant-3 (when possible, please include their BP username in the notes section)
4) Cash App: $jlbryantjo (when possible, please include their BP username in the notes section)
5) Zelle: [email protected] or 614-851-3927 (when possible, please include their BP username in the notes section)
----------
I apologize for the brevity of this note, I aim to make updates to it as we go along, but I didn't want to wait any longer to get the call out.
If you donate, please send me a PM that you have done so, if you want to give the amount, cool, if not, I understand, I'm just trying to get a feel for the response level if that makes sense.
If you have other questions, please reach out to me, @Buckeyeskickbuttocks or @LordJeffBuck
If you have other fundraising ideas, that would be cool too, I know @BB73 had coordinated some donated merch auctions and the like.

FAQs:
I know some of you guys have questions, and I don't have answers, but I will try to anticipate just a few here, and will update with more as time goes on.
1. Q: Why haven't @Clarity and @LongwoodBuck been more visible?
A: Myriad personal reasons, but this is still their baby and want to see it succeed as long as there is a need for a community like ours.
2. Q: Why haven't I gotten my usual Thank You for donating?
A: Thank you! We're going to see about getting some help where its needed with that.
3. Q: What about new spiffy awesome banners?
A: I have no idea how to do it, but its on the radar of things we'd like to do.
4. Q: What about the future and leadership/direction for the site going forward.
A: There are a few people having very preliminary discussions regarding that, I don't have any update. I do, however know, if we don't get a few bucks raised, that's not going to be a problem anymore.
I will update this opening message as new information arises. Thanks for everyone's support.
Sorry this is coming out the Day of the Game Please do not interrupt your celebrations for this unless we #hang100 and you're drunk and feeling really generous. (I'm looking at you @Jaxbuck )
