Hi, I like the game very much, but I haven't got enough money to buy a subscription, cos I'm a child from far country, and i cannot send money.
Is there any other way to get a subscription?
Making advertisment or something...

The only way to get a free subscription (for how long,dont know) is if u write a featured mystery and Ben uses it. Other than that, you have to send money by check or money order or use pay pal. Or you could tell your parents that you want a subscription to Sleuth for Christmas ;)

I also would like very much to subscribe.....
But when i tried to register to paypal, my country wasn't registered in paypal system.
Is there any other way to subscribe other than sending money order/check or write a featured mistery?
I think i've read in this message board somewhere that you could also subscribe by e-mailing your credit card number to ben (sleuth admin). Is it true? because that sounds more simple and if it's acceptable, i would prefer subscribing that way.....

Lance, I think the best thing to do is send an e-mail to Ben and ask him which methods of payment he can suggest for you and is okay with. You can mail him at:
ben@hypotheticalsoftware.com

As for mailing him your credit card number then I doubt that's the way to go, a) because I would think that is only useful when sending someone money and in this case Ben wouldn't be the one needing to send money to you, and b) because (and this even though I would say Ben is a trustworthy guy) you should never send your credit card informations to anyone via e-mail ;)
