--- Quote ---Due to my lack of time and money to keep maintaining this site, it will be shut down by March 12, 2010.

It has been a good ride, but all things must come to an end -- and seven years, in internet time, is very close to an eternity.

Thank you all for putting up with me for all these years, and special thanks to jaf, who is the only reason this site is still operational, since he has been running it day-to-day for a long time.
A debt of gratitude is also owed to Swift Communications who, by providing a server free of charge, have halved the monthly costs for several years as well -- the remaining server is rented from ThePlanet, at $189/month. Ads alone have not been paying for that server for quite a while, but thank you for putting up with them nonetheless :-)

I should list many, many more people, and I should give much, much more text here. Alas I would surely forget some even then. So to all those who I have not mentioned, thank you. Also a big thank you to all who have donated over the years, however large or small a sum it may have been.

If you need to talk to me, please drop me a line.

I used them quite a bit since live evil and several other groups used it as their torrent platform.

I recall taking 3 weeks downloading a 200 mb torrent from there once, was a few years ago though, so connections weren't what they are today.

God damnit! Now I'll have to leech like made to get live evil's crap.

People who say they don't use scary water may not notice it, but if you use an indexing site, it will download the torrent from SW without taking you to the site. So, even if you think you aren't using them, chances are you are.

Stsin:
When I started, much of my anime was from Scarywater, since it was used by many fansubbers.
But they remove licensed material (US), so I can see why it's dying off.

Another part of anime fansub history being laid to rest.
