Tax accounts are no longer necessary. Instead, every player can use their forum account to access levels from -34 to the end. To do that, a player needs to activate level access on a special page that pops up after solving -33.
The reason behind having tax accounts was to eliminate most of the cheaters in order to protect the end and the value of Notpron certificates. However, Notpron grew old, life went on and David is busy with other projects. Certificates will not be issued anymore, so the main reason for paid accounts is gone.
You can still buy the book or just donate of course ;)
To play from -34 to the end you need to either show your loyalty or pay 1€ riddle tax. In return you get a username and password that will work until the end. Please read the rest for the explanation!
Payment via bank transfer, Paypal or Candies
If both options don't work for you, you can send me a letter with the money or whatever you can come up with. We'll discuss this via email.
After paying, send me a mail (to be found at www.david-m.org), and I'll get you the account. If you (did) buy the making of book or you donated earlier (1+€), you get the account for free.
But the most appreciated way of paying is sending me pralinés, marzipan, candies or whatever, surprise me. No poison please!
Zenraiser was the first to bring up this idea, so she sent me chocolate in return for the account. My address can be found
in the imprint on my own page.
If you have another good idea, please tell me, I'm open for suggestions. Some recorded videos of themselves talking about notpron, or of them throwing a coin into a river... go creative.
No, it's no joke, it's real.
I'm really sorry, that this has to be done, but I had no other option to protect the end. I gotta make sure the end is something
only the real players can reach, and nothing you can get to via a walkthrough.
And, well it's just 1€. But it's too much for cheaters to pay, that's why it works well. If you have a better idea to accomplish the goal of protecting the end, tell me. I'm open for suggestions.
As for me, I'm not really making money with this. I get only a few cents a day from this, so screw that. :P
I understand if you are angry, but I am even more angry, because it would have been much cooler to have it all free,
but you wouldn't feel special seeing the end, if every nubcake on the internet could see it by following a simple link.
Or if you can't pay or send anything, go creative and prove your loyalty in some other way. Some send me a bar of chocolate (no bitter ones please), some record themselves in a video while they talk about notpron or toss a 1 euro coin (or equal) into a river or smash it or something. Whatever, it will count and give you an account.
