Heck, even MFGG has ads (though I don't assume that there's a lot of profit to be had there, it probably just pays for the server & domain). ER has since moved onto indie games I think.
Yep, ad revenue usually tracked server costs, or a little less. Over a long time frame that dropped closer to zero. Who is still making money with ads these days? I terminated my adsense account a while ago, so MFGG has been ad-free.
