UNEXPECTED INVOICE BRINGS OUT BEGGING BOWL

by Hazed

It's time for us to make a plea for players to go and buy some slithy toves, so we can pay our bills. Since we moved Fed2 to the new system our monthly costs are greatly reduced, but we've just been told that our network company has failed to bill us for bandwidth for the past two and a half months - and now they have discovered that oversight, they've slapped us with the bill which is rather a shock to the system!

Thankfully, this should be the last of the big and unexpected bills. (Well, if we were expecting any more, they wouldn't be unexpected...)

Although we offer Fed2 free of charge, it does cost money to keep it going. In the game we can magic up extra groats if we need to, but real life dollars aren't so easy to come by! We need your financial support in buying slithy toves so we can run the game. Slithy toves can be used in the game for a variety of things, some of them fun, some of them very useful - like the upgrade to your navcomp that lets you move automatically between Sol planets. Take a look at this list of the things you can do with slithy toves.

You can make an individual purchase of slithy toves or you can subscribe and receive slithies every month at a 25% discount - go to the slithies page.
