Long story short - drop.sc is still down demanding donations in order to run properly.

It's a "subpage" of the aAa (against All authorities) clanwebsite therefore being more reliable in terms of funding and organisation as supposed to the drop.sc organisation.
Besides that the new site is also more advanced than the drop.sc at draining informations from replays. If you upload a replay you are provided with two graphs indicating your APM throughout the game and the Armyvalue graph furthermore the sides is displaying the buildorders of both players, the average APM and the percentage of population built (eg.: 70% Zerglings | 10% Infesotrs | 5% Banelings). An uploaded replay also allows you to link a video (a casted version of your game) to that replay. External links to the battle.net profile are directly accesable in the replay. The only deficit in comparison to drop.sc is the not existing account data. (eg.: http://drop.sc/players/EU/1427209/Myu)
You can only search for the name and if you are having a short name like Myu (search for "Myu") it's just displaying names with the letters MYU in it (eg.: NOMYuvalShot is one of the ) therefore not collecting replaydata like drop.sc did but it's not that big of a flaw.
In the end I decided to upload all of my replays to both sides but manely to www.sc2replays.eu and therefore not leaving drop.sc completely (hoping that) maybe they are going to be able to fix their website and their debts. I am really sad that drop.sc had to (basically) end like this. No funding means no time being put in to the project. The basic upload function still works but the rest is buggy because the staff isn't able to fix those problems anymore.
