120$ // 970 EVO Plus 500GB to make server startups faster, backups faster, overall more server responsiveness
????$ // Make another machine using AMD's ThreadRipper 1900x Ryzen1 CPU /w 64GB's of RAM - This would definitely expand the amount of servers we could run but would also definitely cost a fortune. We will plan this to be the next Eaglefire machine and will be looked into when RAM prices drop
????$ // Upgrade the above mentioned machine to have 128GB's of RAM and a ThreadRipper?
???$ // Have both machines hooked directly to a UPS
Get the help of community YouTubers to advertise and promote our servers? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Create a video / animation explaining why certain servers are bad / unfair for ease explaining lol
Unturned
Prep for 4.0
Archive 3.0 server files for the public to take / use
Quickly and swiftly learn to create 4.0 servers to get a head start in the 4.0 hosting scene
Do some benchmarks with 4.0 server hosting to fully understand how much more efficient / optimized 4.0 hosting is compared to 3.0 to fully know how many servers we can run
Minecraft
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ get that shiiiiiiiiiiiiiii goin
Rust
Learn the basics
Benchmark to understand how many resources are needed
Considering making two servers
Vanilla
