..how about a 5th city planned for 2007...the players could vote
on a list in 2006...staying with the genre...circa early 20th century
i would propose 5 cities ( not listed in order of preference )...
casablanca (where the bar of course would have to be "Rick's"...or
constantinople ( with the Orient Exspress office in the city )...i
think montevideo ( with the Graf Spree in the harbor as a site )...
and then there is always Cairo ( with the British Officer's Club as
a bar site ) and lastly as a novelty idea....Lhasa, the high city of Tibet
( where the Triad could have a dojo )....any other ideas on this subject ?

I've been to Istanbul, and it's absolutely gorgeous. Yes, the name of Constantinople no longer applies to the modern city, but there are still places where the atmosphere of history and time gone by still exists. I think Istanbul would be a fabulous addition to Sleuth

As for other cities, how about: Honolulu, Sydney, Havana, Athens, or Madrid

Why not Winnipeg? Or maybe Albany.

if it's winnipeg, aka winterpeg, the snow bear probably should come equipped with mosquito repellent kit:
+ 2 smart
+ 2 tough
-6 charm (that stuff smells like a baked diaper full of skunk livers and spent lysol cans)
*is holding out for Hong Kong, but digs Scarlet's ideas, esp. Havana! Very cool.

Awwww those poor Manitobans are friendly folk....."Friendly Manitoba" isn't that what their license plates say?
*shamefully admits she used to live in Winterpeg, and liked it.*

3 cities I'd 'vote' for :
Chicago -
Istanbul/Constantinople -
Paris -
To Can Karacan:
Actually Constantinople wasn't 'officially' renamed Istanbul until 1930.
To cfm:
So are you saying that ...
Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
So if Jimmy Kennedy has a date in Constantinople, she'll be waiting in Istanbul.
hmmmm

haha yeah jst, "Friendly Manitoba" is still the message to the world stamped on winterpeg license plates by prison inmates. Apparently, friendly inmates.
They have mosquito issues. They should totally change their plates to read "Itchy Manitoba".
Since the Havana suggestion, I'm really starting to lean latin. How about Rio de Janeiro? Anyone see 'City of God'? Imagine that but 30 or 40 years earlier...totally sleuthworthy!
