The money was spent on advertising, electricity, other services to keep the shard running (Dropbox, Mibbit, etc), hosting charges when we were looking for a reliable dedi, etc.
Notice that 'payroll' is not in our list of expenses. Everything that was done was done by devs for free. If you take all the donations that are left over and divided them equally amongst everyone who worked on the shard based on the time they spent, they'd be making about a penny an hour.
I see no reason to make the scripts public for reasons that have already been discussed in detail. We've offered to help people who are trying to script and we'll have the forums open even after the shard is down, so I feel free to script it yourself. Another thing is, if we do release it, there would suddenly be like 10 clones of IN with noone who knows how to script anything running on a residential connection. So, as soon as something broke, it would probably end up going down.
The decision's already been made, but feel free to rage some more.
