I just subscribed yesterday and played my first featured mystery. I've been doing intermediate cases with no problem, but the intermediate FM kicked my butt. I've read that clues are in the write-ups of all the happenings. But even after continuing to go around to the suspects and the townspeople again and again, it didn't seem like I could conclusively prove anyone. I took my best guess since I wouldn't be penalized, but was wrong. What am I missing? Do you pretty much just have to guess?
I was playing the Green Specter by the way.

I dont remember this FM anymore. But in general FMs are harder then the random mysteries. They dont really follow the same pattern.
Sometimes you need to wait for new clues to open.
So keep going to every townie and suspect till you get new questions.
Also dont forget to check research. There are some FMs who use this a lot.
If you are really stuck just guess. The good thing about FMs is that you can do them again. Maybe next time you'll have more luck or skills.

For all FM's, you usually need a lot of skills (research especially) to fully get everything out of it.
Also, don't go by the difficulty rating. They really aren't accurate.

I flunked Green Specter too :( jojo is right. The difficulty rating doesn't play out the same way on FM's.

Darnit Dogberta. Every time I see your avatar, I get a quick twinge of wanting to smoke (then I remind myself, that I left that trap 5 months ago. *woot*)

hey - virtual smokes never hurt nobody. I can get ya some virtual silk stockings like mine, but you'll have to learn to keep your seams straight, kid!
btw, congrats big time on quitting. I quit a few years ago and it does get better - at least as long as I steer clear of the Tricky Mister.

I recommend Allen Carr. I failed on all will power and patch attempts. This method made it rediculously easy to quit an almost 15 year habit of smoking 1-2 packs a day.
