I haven't seen it, but this seems like a good time to point out that https://tomlehrersongs.com/ is still up, but no one knows for how long.

Oh dear god I've done it - all maps played and RAMP 2023 is in a state that I'm ready to call finished! Download it at https://ramp2023.teamouse.net/ . It is an 850MB Doom WAD. It has 296 maps in it. It is seriously, tremendously ridiculous. Thanks to all contributors for your amazing maps and assets!

IF YOU SPONSOR SOMEONE ON PATREON: go in and check your transactions for August, and re-send them if they bounced. The “retry” link is located in your billing history.

Patreon are being vague and trying to play it down. We *assume* they are trying to un-bugger their screwup.

Also, payments via Payoneer have been disabled for now, so that'll be me personally. arse.
