I would love a Drunken Slug invite (startrek.website)

If anyone has a Drunken Slug invite, I'd love one! Been trying to get one via Reddit r/UsenetInvites, but I'm always just a bit too late responding to the offers.

Thanks!

What's drunken slug? Their website doesn't give many clues.

Premium (and invite only) NZB indexer.

Better than Geeks?

NZBgeek? I'm honestly not sure. I currently use NZBgeek, and for the most part have been very happy with it. Lately, however, I've been running into some issues with articles no longer being available. I've tried a couple of different Usenet providers (had been using NewsgroupDirect - tried Newshosting and Eweka) to see if that would make a difference, and they didn't.

From reading around online, and specifically Reddit, Drunken Slug came up a lot as a good indexer. Some claim it to be better than NZBgeek, many say they're about the same. But most everyone agrees that having NZBgeek AND Drunken Slug is an ideal combination.
