Change in Price for New Members

Change in Price for New Members With football season ending, we're returning to the previous pricing for new members -- $24.95 per month or $199 per year -- beginning Jan. 13. This doesn't affect those of you who are already at this price and you will remain there through future increases according to our earlier promise. It also doesn't affect current month-to-month members who have paid $99, as their next re-up will be billed at $24.95. However, it does affect members who paid the higher yearly rate. Their accounts will be adjusted with the excess remaining in the balance refunded. We should be able to do this on our end. But if you don't hear from us next week, please email me and we'll handle it. The new prices will remain in effect at least through the end of July and anyone taking the yearly rate will lock in a year at that rate. If you have questions, I'll answer them here.
I think that is a good idea moving forward, both for generating new subscribers, and keeping the old ones. There are a lot of decent sports forums out there, EOG, Betting Talk etc, that supply good info/betting discussion just like this one. $199 year ($16 a month) should keep most people here, and would be affordable for someone who wanted to take a shot. $999 a year is a tough sell for a sports message board/forum. I'm not sure how that price worked, but my best guess is that it's out of most people's budget for something of this nature.
