The End of An Era :-(

Well, it looks like the sinner has finally come to a close.

Due to decreased page views and lack of advertising revenue the administrator of thesinner has finally decided to close the site down. :-(


We've got one month of life left in us, since this months server bill has already been paid for, but after that you'll have to find a new way to waste your days away on the internet.


Goodbye everyone.

That really sucks.

I'll waste my new found time on facebook and explosm.net. Screw doing any work.

I am 110% convinced that this is not an April Fool's Day joke at all. I just guess that Oli couldn't bear to tell us himself, such a sad day.

Arrivaderci, Sinner.

So someone asked me "What is it you do?". I thought about it for a minute. Then I thought about it a little more. All the while I probably looked like I was staring in to space, struggling for an answer. And I was. There was only one response I could really give.

"I make sure the shit stays off the fan."

Regardless of it being true or not, perhaps the announcement could have been made tomorrow so that cynics like myself don't look at the date and chuckle.
What?

Sorry about that. I was a little bit drunk at the time. We weren't supposed to tell anyone until the end of the week.
