I'm sorry I'm a n00b and a tard, but I wish to donate to this site because I lurk and enjoy it immensely, but I have a few questions I would like answered first, if someone will.

It appears to me that this fundraising goes on only during a certain time of year. Are donations accepted at any time, even not during the fundraising time?

Is PayPal the only option for payment?

It also appears that the last fundraising did not quite meet the quota needed? Apparently since the site is still going, someone would have made up the needed difference. If I donate, would my donation go to the next years' need, or just help to make up the last years' need that someone fulfilled temporarily until the money came in?

I ask this as twallan has recently retired, even though he originally stated he would see The Sims 3 through, but life circumstances change things so it was not possible.

Is Pescado going to carry on through the end of The Sims 3? Is he planning on going on to The Sims 4? I could find nothing on this in Search.

I do not have Awesomemod, nor am I planning on continuing to The Sims 4. I just feel that those who are continuing to support the Sims community, whether past or present, should be able to do so, including getting the help they need.

Since this site also still has The Sims 2, and now The Sims 3, I would guess the plan would be to stay around for awhile, at least as long as is possible depending on donations?

If someone will help with the answers to the above questions, I would appreciate it.
