Ooooooooh! I come to you all spookily from the future, with a message! (Opens envelope, takes out paper, ahems)
- ?pedia left its cushy deal with Wikia over a passing triviality, opting to pay for its own hosting.
- The income from advertising wasn't enough to pay for hosting, because there weren't enough visitors, because nobody wants to read streams of nonsense or lackidaisically produced writing.
- ?pedia silently closed.

- Hey, who is this psychic person? Can you tell me this weekend's lottery numbers?
- In seriousness (if there is such a thing) the idea of Illogicopedia going independent has been around since cavemen times and even the dinosaurs groaned about Editthis's downtime.
- To throw another spanner into the works, Seppy is now having second thoughts about the price of hosting - we're gonna have to pay for it ourselves you know. Advertising just isn't worth it - would probably cover about 0.1% of the monthly hosting cost. So, er, basically the issue is cost. We need the cash, and that's where the lottery numbers might come in handy.
- What say we just bombard Wikia and get them to give us the Uncyclopedia skin? Oh, and Illogicopedia will never die! AID EPOC IGOLLI and all zat crap! -- Hindleyak Converse • ?blog • Click here! 09:24, 22 Jumbly 2008 (UTC)
- I heard on the Grapevine Wikipedia are bringing in a new skin. Maybe we can swing that one :D --Silent PenguinLeave Me Alone 17:36, 22 Jumbly 2008 (UTC)
