It has come to my attention that the AAM DATABASE created by Ober is set to expire in November. Unless the hosting fee is picked up by someone, we will lose this resource. I am not sure how many people use it, or even know it exists. It can be found in the AMM General Discussion/AAM Resource Page. It provides printable images of all re-costed and edited SA's with Q&A's on SA'S.
It also the contains FORUMINI GENERALS deck. If anybody has any interest in trying to keep this up and running, please speak up and lets see if there is enough interest to keep this going. I understand it costs about $90 a year to maintain.
I was thinking perhaps we could just handle it through the FORUM. I would get the details from Ober on how to pay the hosting fee and take care of it. Then everybody who is interested in donating could just PAYPAL me their share. If we get enough to contribute equally it might be fairly reasonable. I am curious to know how many people use it anymore.
Hey guys, I'm developer behind cardbase for which Ober kindly covered domain and hosting fees.
Hosting is standard Windows on plus.hr, I don't think there are multiyear discount as we have already 30% discount for using my buddy's reseller program. In anticipation for shutting down I made another version without database and placed it on Google Firebase web hosting on address aamcardbase.web.app/ I have dropped card back side and it's missing print and Army builder feature for now. I thought about dropping builder but its popular according to analytics so I'll try to squeeze it in.
I'm not sure what free tier limits are, as there are listed Hosting data transfer 360 MB/day and Cloud storage 1 GB/day, dunno which one applies. 360 MB/day should mean 3000 card views par day as card is around 100kb on average. So I'm gonna ask you to start browsing new cardbase lightly to check for errors and to check if free tier should suffice cardbase needs. I have fixed SU-122 armor 5/4, some typos and letter cases, someone might compose some light homepage text to explain defferentiation between cardbase card stats and paper card, I know I was confused.
Same hosting covers Tanks! game on tanks.aamcardbase.com/. I can move it too but would like to drop saving to database. I might try to save build to url as Army builder works, but can't promise much. I am inbetween changing jobs right now so quite low on time in future
