They actually did keep them up, because the survey met Yoshi's minimum response for that. Iirc the final save was at the end of September or beginning of October, which is when they would have shut down, but they kept the servers live due to the responses on the survey. They were then shut down in November because not enough people were actually playing. I.e. the player base didn't put their money where their mouths were.
