Can I donate to Troll Tax itself? I bet those servers aren't free.

Why I never thought you'd ask. We are entirely self-funded. If you'd like to contribute to help us stay online, visit our donation page. If donations are greater than our costs, we'll send the rest to charity (through Troll Tax of course).
