FMDelicious Patreon Pricing Update | New Prices from October 1st (Patreon)

A clear Patreon update ahead of FM27.

Starting October 1st, FMDelicious Patreon prices for new members will change:

Gelato: $1 → $3/month

Cookies: $3 → $5/month

Scripter: $5 → $10/month

EXISTING PAID MEMBERS KEEP THEIR CURRENT PRICE

This is the most important part.

If you are already a paying member, your current tier price will not change.

As long as you remain continuously subscribed to your current tier, you keep the price you are paying today.

No action is required.

If you cancel and decide to rejoin later, the price available at that time will apply.

CURRENT-PRICE WINDOW UNTIL SEPTEMBER 30TH

If you are currently a free member, have been thinking about joining, or are considering upgrading to another tier, the current prices remain available until September 30th.

Join a paid tier or complete your upgrade before the pricing change is applied and you will keep that tier's current price for as long as you remain continuously subscribed to it.

From October 1st, new memberships will use the new prices.

There is no pressure to join. I simply want the timing and the rules to be completely clear before anything changes.

WHY THE PRICING IS CHANGING

FMDelicious has changed significantly during FM26.

The project is no longer only about publishing individual tactic files.

It now includes live tactic development, Solo Shot gameplay, tactic collections, automated testing, the tactics database, forum tools, archive content and ongoing tactical analysis.

The testing infrastructure has also expanded.

I currently run two dedicated automated testing machines:

Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Intel Core i5-13600K

My main workstation, a Ryzen 9 9950X, can also switch to testing duty overnight.

For FM27, that additional capacity will allow me to cover significantly more ground: player development and training-speed testing, deeper meta analysis, new tactical experiments, more Claim vs Reality projects and other areas that I could not develop properly during FM26.

The goal is to build a stronger and more professional testing structure for the next Football Manager cycle.

This is not simply about hardware or electricity costs.

It is about making FMDelicious sustainable as the testing infrastructure, database and amount of content continue to grow.

FORUM TEST LIMITS

The daily forum testing limits will be:

Free: 2 tests/day

Gelato: 5 tests/day

Cookies: 10 tests/day

Scripter: 15 tests/day

Gelato increases from 4 to 5.

Cookies remains at 10.

Scripter moves from 20 to 15, which is more in line with actual usage while still providing substantial testing capacity.

These limits may be adjusted in the future as the system and usage continue to grow.

AD-FREE BROWSING

All paid Patreon tiers also include ad-free browsing on FMDelicious.

This has already been part of the membership benefits, but I have not communicated it clearly enough in the past.

SIMPLE SUMMARY

Until September 30th:

Gelato: $1/month

Cookies: $3/month

Scripter: $5/month

From October 1st for new memberships:

Gelato: $3/month

Cookies: $5/month

Scripter: $10/month

Already a paid member and staying subscribed to your current tier?

Nothing changes.

This is the next step toward building a stronger FMDelicious structure for FM27.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the project so far.
