..( i am a sub ) but how about a free trip to a city for a non-sub as
one of the rotating favors...at least to london where it only takes
two turns of the three they get for the day...they could spend some
time in london and see more of the game...maybe get a contact...and
then with growth be encouraged to subscribe ...

*smiles* I think it's a nice idea.
However, I think after playing three cases, people are aware if they want to subscribe or not.

I really don't think the cost of subscribing is that much either. When I was a kid and had no allowance, doing jobs like babysitting, working at the school tuck shop (which I had to walk to both, barefoot in the snow, wearing just rags and when I got there, by boss would whip me) would have more than enough paid for a year's subscribtion costs. Even back then and I got paid peanuts.
As a student, although times were tough (more snow barefeet and whipping but this time from landlords) I was always able to scrap up a bit for something extra even if it did take a few months to save.

What I am saying is, subscribing is CHEAP! You get a lot for your money.
And I do think IF people REALLY wanted the benefits from subscribing, they would.

It's a great game, I've never subscribed for a game before and never will again but this one, -I'd tell everyone too. :D

I think one of the reasons why people subscribe is because of curiousity as to what is in the other cities. Another big reason is to be able to travel at will and not be in NYC. Another big reason is to get skill points from factions in teh different cities. Etc etc.

I think allowing unsubbed to travel would take away a huge incentive to subscribe. And also makes the difference between what you get as a sub vs non sub smaller.

This site depends on the subscribers to continue to exist and be expanded.

Um, I thought shabu shabu was a dish.
A Cinese dish in fact.
And as there are no Japanese cities but there is Shanghai, I'd say shabu shabu means eat me. :D
Mmm, I love it. *misses shabu shabu*

One of the resons why people don't sub even if they want to is probably because they can't use PayPal. Well, that's my reason anyway.

Allowing others to travel would detract from the "allure" o fsubscribing. Therefore, I think it should be kept a "mystery" until someone's curiousity wins, and they subscribe.
