I wish there were some tournament for the non subscribers with the winner being given a free subscription.
I dont know if that is already being done, but I think that it's a good idea.
Comments?
As far as I know there have never been free subscriptions awarded as a prize for any tournament, but once in a while Russ does have a tournament for non-subscribers. They aren't highly publicized, so you will need to check the Tournament page regularly so you don't miss out.
I could have done, but I am a student in India. I don't have a credit card and $20 converted into Indian rupee is a big amount(not very big but considerable).

C'mon, become a PAWN STAR!!!!!!!!!!!
I resisted replying with something of this nature because I really think it's Russ' call as to whether this is viable, unless some altruistic member wishes to sponsor such a tournament.

Someone requested one the other day (and offered sponsorship) - but there is one big problem.
From prior experience I know they are prone to cheats and multiple account abuse as soon as a subscription is offered. Therefore, they are far too much work to administer.

Sorry about that.

I can see it now...
Sheriff Russ of Nothingham and <Insert cheat's name> Hood in an all-star(less) cast: The sheriff has called an unsubscribed tourny with the expectation that the outlaws are sure to attend. A free subsription is sure to lure to flush them out...
Alternatively, there is the Kenny Everett philosophy: "Round them, put them in a field and ...", well, you know the rest!
What a shame though. Usually cheats are just a tad annoying, tending to cause some silly ratings fluctuations. But here they have managed to really negatively impact on our unsubscribed members. And without a healthy body of unsubscribed members, we'll never add to the <insert derogative term> body of subscribed members, which is very clearly a bad thing.
Well I hadn't thought about that. Actually so many good ideas get spoiled because of the cheats. Why can't all be good and honest?
As a passing remark I had made two ID's (Actually I didn't read the Terms of Service carefully so I was myself cheating though unknowingly) . I am sorry for that and now I don't know what to do of the second ID? (I want to keep this one) Any suggestions? Russ?

Funny as this may seem, this is how I was originally alerted to Zach's behaviour. (if you still remember that episode...) And he was a subscriber!!! 🙄
