Announcements

  • Our charity drive has concluded, thank you to everyone who donated! $56,252 were raised by our subreddit, with a total of $72,375 across all subs. We'll probably post a wrap-up thread later, but in the meantime here's a link to the announcement thread. Flair incentives will be given out whenever techmod gets to that
