Demonland Donations

I'm starting this thread because Andy is too much of a gentleman to ask for some help to run this site.

Everyone of us has benefited by the the conversations, banter, humour, despair, joy and excitement of being part of this site.

What else would we be doing during the off-season without our daily dose of Demonland?

To the point, the site costs money to run.  You have all seen the value of the new software that Andy and Nasher have installed.  And guess who paid for that?

What everyone doesn't see is the extra time and labour and tweaking which then has to be done to make it all work.

"Demonland is a Melbourne Football Club fan site powered by fans for the fans. There are many costs associated in bringing you this site. We offer Lifetime and Annual subscriptions so that you can contribute to the running of the site but we are also aware that there are people who want to contribute but can only afford a little bit or have already contributed and want to again. If you would like to make a donation to Demonland it would be greatly appreciated and will go towards running and maintaining this website. "

So without Andy having to ask, perhaps we can all show our gratitude and thanks by tipping in a little toward the target of $2,000.

 

EDIT: Changed the target to $2,000 which is what it cost Andy to purchase the new software. 

Here's starting it off with $100

Now that the site has been up dated i seem to have lost the info on when my subscription is due.

Can anyone help?

I can help you with that. I will get back to you shortly. We are currently upgrading the subscription software and it will be online and available soon. I will start up a separate thread when that is ready.

I agree 100% george.  As I said in another thread, I'm an interstate member, and Demonland is my football 'lifeline'.  Long may it prosper, but that won't happen without a hell of a lot of hard work by the dedicated Administrators, and the generosity good will of Demonlanders generally.

Im a life member which was pretty cheap a couple of years back.

If I pay 10cents per hour I read this site, Thats at least 1 hour a day. (sometimes 3) Times 7 equals $.70 a week.

Times 52 = $36.40 a year.

Ive tried to wean myself off Demonland, but like MFC Ive been too long in the wasteland and Im rusted on.

I can easily donate another $36.

Cheers. Thank you guys. Your generosity is very much appreciated. Forked out $200 for a club raffle ticket today. Who wants to go to LA with me if I win?

I think their raffles have predetermined results, just like how they reward Melbourne based members that attend every home game and not interstate members who continually renew their membership, and offer incentives to new members.

 

just my thoughts....

That is so generous of you guys. Thank you so much. It is very much appreciated.

Here is a link. http://demonland.com/forums/clients/donations/

There is a link on the homepage too.

Cheers Andy. Happy to contribute.

After so many raffles, I reckon I'm well overdue for a prize this year. 

The closest I've come was the China Southern Airlines promotion at the G. My paper plane missed by a bees digit, thanks to a wind shift surrounding the G. Well that's my POV anyway :)

OMG when I went to the donation site it said the total reached was $666. I immediately panicked and tried to add another 50 to get away from that infernal number but the process keeps jamming on a 'share location' pop up. Have tried exiting and starting again three times, but the same thing happens.

That infernal number is my fault. Apologies Doc. #dontpanic

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
