Folks, I really appreciate your feedback and passion and I am listening. I will try and get the double logon issues resolved, its annoying me too ! I will also try and setup the system whereby the forum will still require a userid and password, but wont require the membership fee.
The membership fee will therefore only be required to areas that offer cash rewards or access to pyramid map or award zones or anything else that costs money, like the free searches, mystery pictures and any other new games we introduce next year.

Damn hothead *coughs*
I think Puzz was maybe saying that the free searches require a membership now, so say the person paying like 2.00 pounds or whatever, will have a shot at the free searches (which we know the puzzles are quite pricey) so it seems fair to charge a lil here for them to get a chance at a bigger reward, guess it would be like the treasure chest game now which makes sense to me of putting that into play.

Well... not that it matters, but I was shocked to see that the three bullet point T&C of the 500 Club has a four stipulation now.
4) It's an all in... no refunds. (paraphrasing)

For me, I assumed this was the case from the beginning. Why would I expect a refund for an investment? There is always risk involved with investment; if the company goes belly-up you're out that money, that's the way it goes. So I don't see how it changes anything. If you want an investment that has refund opportunity, might I suggest the treasure chest game? Easy in, easy out, no money lost and maybe money gained. The 500 club though is an opportunity for more than "just" the next 3 puzzles, and I think well worth the 500 pounds. If I had it available, I'd be in there in a heartbeat.

Is it being sold as an investment? Or as a kind of super pre-order..?
I'm sure I saw the word "Guaranteed" in Puzz's post on it...
EDIT: Ah I see from the posts above, there is now a "No Refunds" clause... fair enough if that's stated up front.
I presume that's no refunds no matter what... but I guess the Isis 3 is very nearly ready to go, from what I read. So your "investment" is pretty safe at least that far!
If I had cash to burn i'd be in...

Oh dear, where has all of the adventure excitement gone? I remember the day I received my isis 1 and everything seemed so simple.
Its all getting a bit overcomplicated and bureaucratic for me these days, hence my reduced attendance around these forums....!
