So I've just been going through my licenses and noticed I have a total of 23 on my laptop. Is there any loyalty scheme for so many purchases.? Not sure how much this equates too but I'd say in the region of £600+
I appreciate time and effort and the sims are of a high quality but at what point do I say enough is enough.

I'm not sure what the exact terms of the licence are, but I strongly suspect that this sort of thing would be in breach of it.

Besides, in order to allocate a licence to a computer you need to login to the Licence Manager with your forum username and password. So if you wished to share your licence with another user you would have to give them your forum log-in credentials.

Like going to 23 Premier League matches, 15 days of Test Match Cricket or 2 Grand Prixs (including practice) but with the SimSig licences you can go back and use them again.rather than just looking back at the memories.

When was the last time you paid to get into a Premier League football match. My season ticket cost me £675 for 19 games.........a lot cheaper than down the road at the Emirates

I think you are shooting at the wrong target since I've had a season ticket at St. James' Park since 1974 and used to pay at the turnstile for 10 years before that. On what I pay at St. James' you could watch 23 Premier League games for £600+.

Heard that the police caught you climbing over the wall at St James’ Park once! They told you to get back in and watch!!

I even manage to get to Stamford Bridge when "loyal supporters" of the home side don't bother to attend.

I have 37!

However these are over a long period, and I've had a lot of use out of many of the sims. On an individual sim basis I've often paid more for a game on Steam and used it a lot less; plus a lot of the sims I do own have been bought as either multipacks or early-release special offers where available.

There's the right way, the wrong way and the railway.

Good to see your sense of humour is still present in 2018 John. Can I just say that your comment about “Shooting at the wrong target” would appear to be the trouble with your beloved Newcastle looking at their league position.

Getting back to the topic in discussion though and after Peter’s editing of the very first post it seems to me that the problem about licences being used on more than one machine is now lost and therefore the next post appears to be wrong and does not seem relevant to the initial question. The response was perfectly correct when in context with the original posting but not now.
I hold my hand up and admit I do sometimes think that today’s prices do appear a tad high but in fairness I don’t have to buy. Perhaps some sort of loyalty bonus might be a good idea but considering the amount of work involved in each sim these days I can see why they are priced as they are.

Good luck in the Championship next season.......

Geoff

If you do want to keep on going well off topic, I'm happier with current form of LWLDW than LLWLL. Only takes you to lose and us to win for us to be ahead of you in the table.

Nice line. Shame you finished nearer to the Championship than we did.

Quite true however I seem to think that taking six points from your beloved team this year was a bit like taking chocolate from the baby.........thank you and you could say Newcastle saved us from going down.
