I am shamelessly going to post this, so I then shamelessly can link to it from the moderators picks.

Hoping that we get more people subbing. For the simple reason, this game exists because people subscribe.

(Disclaimer: Mods, or even anyone else...make money of this game. It is volunteer run. Subscription money is used to pay for hardware and software to run this game.)

Something that I have been saying to all the potential subscribers while chatting in the bar.

Talk to any subsribed detective to get a Side Kick coupon for 15% off your first subscription. Yet another reason to subscribe to Sleuth.

Talk to me and I will have everything set up for your discount. All I require is your detective name and email address.

I want to subscribe. Was told to get promo coupon. So how do I get it? Anybody? Thanks.

Hi Asmiranda - all you have to do to take advantage of the promo is send a private message to any person who already has a subscription saying that you would like to take advantage of it, and that person will take it from there. You will have to give them a valid email address, which you'll use to redeem the coupon, but basically that's about it.

You can read a bit more about it here:

If you get subscribed because you write a featured mystery, how long are you subscribed for? Also, how much is a subscription?

Jan-18-2007 00:22

As far as I know the admin decideds the length of your subscription, based on the quality of your FM.
For subscription prices and other info, go to your stective page.

Would it not be possible to include ways for UK residents to pay, without the use of PayPal? I believe the cost for this game would be around £2.75 monthly, which I wouldn't mind paying.

yeah Yeti, you should be able to send a money order from the bank.

(so TOTALLY never thought I'd find myself typing that).

Anyways, that's what I do. Not as quick as paypal, but I think a lot of people do it that way, and it's normally received and processed in like a week or so.

I would do that, but I'm not capable of paying by USD, which I believe is the only method they'll accept?

Banks in the UK won't issue a US money order? I'm very, very surprised. Canadian banks do. Anyway, if that's the case, I'd send an email to admin to see what other options they may have.
