No, people are asking for an account tier that allows them to have some number of players participate fully using free accounts.
I, like WatersLethe, do not want to manage a dozen separate user accounts. Signing up and paying for someone works for startup, but you then need access to the account to renew it since there is no gift card option where I can send time to others. If any of your players have forgotten their password at some point and reset it, you now need to coordinate with them just so you can pay for it. |

Me making a bunch of alt accounts would require me to: 1. Manage logins and passwords for 12 accounts, and keep track of who is using which 2. Defy the Lone Wolf Terms of Service. |

call me Chaotic i guess, but i never put much stock in ToS's. they just exist in case there's a lawsuit... it's not as though you'd be trying to defraud anyone, including LW. i really don't see them having a problem with it as long as they're getting paid. BUT i admit that's just speculation on my part. if you're not comfortable going around the ToS then i suppose my suggestion is useless to you. |

Anywho, my workaround for this situation would be to hand each of the players a $5 bill every few months. (Send them money online, let them skip paying for pizza one night, whatever.) It'd be nice if LWD had an option where the GM paid to let their players use their books, but it's not a showstopper. Last edited by Parody; February 18th, 2021 at 11:06 AM. |

For another, if I make an account to hand over, I would have to do so with a burner email address as well, so I'd have to hand over an email address as well so that they can recover passwords. Do you know what the odds are that they're remember two sets of logins and passwords that I just made up willy nilly? I really don't think you've thought this through. |

"Man this is so buggy. Why can't we just use something else?" "Oh, looks it's time to pay again... we still planning on using this software?" Because they don't see the massive value I, as the GM, get out of it. They just see some buggy software that's nickle and diming them for character gen software. |
