    errmm...so the computer to run something without being on? That would have to be on a database or website of some sort...because a computer can't run a process w/o being on o_O

    I think the site itself would take a lot of coding, since it would be working with a user database then proceed to operate on settings set by the user through HTML forms (for the list of items, time etc.)

    It would be a lot of work I think. Like making a super AU program on PHP. o_O

    Still, it would be hard getting the team of programmers to work on that right now since I think they're still set on AU.

    this is doable, but you need a remote server or your own server (computer) to do this... both of which are quick expensive...

    You can not write a php site and have it run without the computer on, you just don't have that kind of control over the server from a web host.

    Best if you just build a computer to run stuff like the au on... can do so for only $300 bucks if you wana build your own. and earn that back if you get 100 mil XD

    You can run it on a VPS (i think thats what you're talking about).

    Burst.net has some cheap VPSes which you may want to consider. (Linux is cheaper than windows)
