I had this post in the Newbie section, but it didn't seem to get responses. So here goes under Sleuth Talk...
I find it unfair that the weekly high scores do NOT count your favors when tallying the solved case side of the scores. Yet if you fail a favor case, it DOES count on the failed side.
Can anyone explain that logic?

Thank you for your responses, Breitkat and Secret Squirrel. From Secret Squirrel's first response, it sounds like this anomaly was unintentional, so I don't think it has anything to do with monetary payoffs better with favors. Besides, you get less xp with favors to offset the money or merchandise.
I have written a vast amount of computer code, so I know that it takes a lot of thought and effort for the end result to be correct. I also know that debugging is part of the process. Most gaming companies use play testers to find anomalies so the programmers can amend the codes.
I guess what I am asking is whether Sleuth Noir is stagnant, or do the admins care enough to make improvements?
I am not bitter about this issue. It just lets me know whether to invest a lot of time to Sleuth, or should I continue looking for other gaming sites. There are many to choose from, and the most successful sites continue to make improvements when asking players to pay to play.
The "so noted" response is something I would expect from a free gaming site, not a pay to play site.
