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.)

I'll have to wait till my exams are over, then I'll earn some money for myself... Hopefully I'll be subbed by may end.

New to this, but it seems to be a game that makes you think. Will subscribe in the next few months when I have more time to play. Til then I'm quite happy with 4/5 cases a day.
With regards to the price, it seems very reasonable to me $45 for a year (£20) much better than playing other games where you have to buy the software then pay to play.

I have a question: I printed out an invoice for 2 months ($10 USD). The first step on the instruction says to "Make Check or Money Order out to Hypothetical Software." Is Money Order similar to a Check? Or could I just send two $5 dollar bills (which I currently have beside me) through the mail?

Yes you can do that (sending cash through the mail) if you need to. It is not the recommended way, but it will work.

A check is a personal instrument, while a money order is something that is backed by a bank. Both work mostly the same here in the United States.

Go to the bank. Ask the bank-people how many money pieces to make 10 american dollars. Give them the number of money pieces they want. They will give you a piece of paper worth that many money pieces. Get a friend to write "Hi there I want to sign up (name of detective you want to sign up)" on a different piece of paper, then send in both pieces of paper, in an envelope.

*note to others..do NOT mail in your phone*

Other than Paypal and Money order, any other way to subscribe? I cannot use Paypal and definitely money order is out of the question. For me, id rather use my credit card to subscribe, ive been using to subscribe to other games. Any chance I can pay through my credit card?

Would there be an idea to offer to the subscribed agents not only an increased amount of cases for each day, but also better priority on the database? Actually I think the latter will be equally interesting. May be because I have not yet come to know all the goodies with being subscribed.
But, since the subscribers are the ones paying the bill, they could for instance be reserved 4 out of 5 database connections?
