I was just wondering, if subbed detectives now have twelve cases a day, to be fair, shouldn't us unsubbed detectives get five cases a day?*pouts*

*kicks Wexler's dad in the shins*
I say, do some odd jobs and send the money through the post.
There must be some craaazzyy cat lady that needs help with her cats when she breaks her leg. Or some guy that needs lawn mowed.. or some curculars that need to be delivered.. or some kids that need sat on.

Well, you see, I have TONS of money-I just can't usually use it myself. *sighs* My dad is usually quite reasonable, but on the subject of internet games-well, you know what.
Maybe I CAN sneak it through the mail-*laughs*
And I mean, with like, at least $80 an year, I should be able to use it, right? *sighs*

Ben will take checks and cash over snail mail. Make sure you include your detective;s name so he can credit your account.

I'm not saying this as an authority of SLEUTH, but the three case limit as freebies is to get you to want to subscribe. I wouldn't expect the three free case limit to go up.

Yes, that could be, but still...*looks wistful*

i'm stuck in the same boat :( my dad always gets his way and now even my mom says I can't subscribe... even if the free case limit went up to 4, I'd be happy!

Same here! URGGGH! I was so desperate that at one point, I had like 4 detectives at the same time! These are all the detectives I've used:
Bess Hardy
Georgina Hardy
Otis Amber
Windy Windkloppel
Barney Northrup
Samuel Westing
Alexander McSouthers
Julian R. Eastman
and now T. R. Wexler. I'm surprised I even remember them all! And by the way, a majority of those names comes from The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin.

u should get a prepaid credit card.....u can get them at any age, from about anywhere these days for next to nothing....no interest fees no credit checks no monthly fees...u can only spend what u put on it.....for example CVS carries them.... one time fee of $9.95 (which is basicly for the card itself)and then only $4.00 to put money on card there after...and this way u would have to involve ur parent or anyone else for that matter!
