We talked about this once or twice before, but I thought it might help some to vent a little here.


We all know it is better to quit than guess. In the course of daily agency life few people need to quit cases.

Treasure hunt favors were the main source of them. Now with the Villain hunts and the increased difficulty there it seems that the ratio of quits is rising.

So how many have you quit? If you are participating in the Villain Hunts are you quitting a lot more now?

Pssh, I love my quits...they're like my teenage fanclub. Check these stats:

Cases Quit: 141
Cases Solved: 1168
False Accusations: 1

In my defense, I'll say that close to 100 of those quits were presubscription and agency benefits. But yeah, the Villain Hunt has probably added another 10-15 this week.

Waaayyy too many :
Cases Quit: 419
Cases Solved: 3244
False Accusations: 0
There was a time when quit every case without at least 2 PE from my contact, or if there were only one, I checked that and if the suspect had a valid alibi=quit.
About 25 during villain hunt.

I am a Newbie to Sleuth; I went to HerInteractive, and it said 13 or older, so I hesitated. But I took a stab at it, and now I love it! Too bad my limit is 3 cases a day. I want to submit a case so I can get a free subscription! If only I would win... but as soon as I falsely accused someone or quit a case, I would make a new detective. Slim Jim McGraw is the last detective I have made. It's maybe my second or so day with him, and my record is:

Cases Quit: 0
Case Solved: 6
False Accusations: 0

I'm just happy this isn't like the AOL lounge and people can e-mail other people by having their addresses posted on the site whenever you post a reply!

cases quit: 39
solved : 3861

False : 0, wonder how long that will last.

Yep will be quiting more in the villan hunts, would you believe a couple of thoes quits were on easy cases when I just happened to click on the wrong name. Oh yeah that really hurts.

Cases Quit: 1228
Cases Solved: 1939

I am proud to be the biggest quitter in sleuthville! Also, I am in the top 20 all time highest-scoring detectives, so I must be doing something right by letting all those criminals run free.

The bad news is that if I quit a villian hunt, I will be forced to retire my detective and start a new one since I have 2 false accusations so far. So sad :(
