Are the cases getting harder?

At the risk of repeating myself, is it just me or are cases getting harder? Compared to December/January-ish, I feel like I'm getting a lot more cases starting off with only 2 suspects. When I ask for motives, I'm getting a shorter list. And I'm pretty sure I'm getting more cases with the max. # of suspects (like 11 instead of 10 for AI and 9 instead of 8 for IH). Is it just me or have other people had similar experiences too?

Also I swear the tea merchant in Shanghai has it in for me and sleeps on a large pile of bribe money.

Lapsang-Souchong bribe money, even :)

I'm not going through that particular circle of sleuth hell right now, but there have definitely been times when I would have sworn that Ben has all of our names in a little tin sippy cup labelled "who am I gonna screw with till their ears bleed this week". I really think it just comes and goes, mate. In lieu of a pat on the back and a pint of absinthe with valium croutons floating in it, I offer this from BadAss a while back:

Good to know I'm not the only one and that others have had similar experiences! Can't wait for this streak to go away!

heh, ironically, I've got the tailor contact and it's been nothing but mysterious stray hairs and bloody footprints for me since I posted that. Like prom, but sleuthier...

Good luck with the streak...maybe try growing a sleuth playoff beard?
