Have you just had your best day of Sleuthing ever? Solved your first AI case? Got your last contact? Picked up your first treasure? Found a spoon? Finally got into the Prince's Palace?*

This is the place to share the joy, have a 'woot' or two and be congratulated by your fellow Sleuths.

Or maybe you've just had to pay Shady enough cash to finance a small war. Or reached screaming point with the tailor in Delhi. Or been pirated twice in a row. Or fallen into a trap three times running. You can share the woe, too, and we'll commiserate. We've probably been there too.

Me? I'm just happy that after two days' worth of 'south of the race track' I've finally got out of Shanghai :)

(* If you don't get the references, never mind. You could ask someone. Or you could just wait and see what the world of Sleuth brings you further down the line...)

Shall I print you out an "I HATE DELHI" club shirt?

Summer, you could guess with a 50/50 chance, but you might ruin your perfect AVH record. Your waiting on one of those 3 clues is spot on correct.

The good news: You might set an AVH record for being stuck (legitimately) in a city the longest.

The bad news: One theory is you might have to wait for a prime number of days. Next is 11, 13, 17, 23, etc. Just kidding. ;)

While you are in NY and at the end of your day, please visit my apartment there and make yourself home. Plenty of food and drink. Soak in the jacuzzi. Complete privacy. Lord knows you earned a respite.

Glad to know you are free at last. :)

Well thank you :) I'd whizzed over to London before I had a chance to call in on you - but my that jacuzzi sounds heavenly. Will certainly pay a visit when back in NYC.

Summer, not to revisit the subject of Delhi if it still be a sore one. Please forgive me and read no further!

Congrats on youor escape and rapid jump to London. But if you can stand it ....

**** Delhi ****

The clue states the co-conspirator is south of the detective shop The bartender is clearly NOT south, but on a par. Can you feel the logic?

My first villain hunt - still on it and after my elevent case today, I make an accusation and what do I find?

Dear Marcellus Hruby has escaped to Shangai, and I cannot solve the remaining case!

Doh. I wish I knew about that beforehand.

Never mind Eden, that has happened to everyone at some time. Just think - you might have been left with 3 cases over and needing 4 to travel to the next city! But Shanghai will be your 3rd city - no? You are progressing well on your first ever AVH - well done :)

@Peter. Are you trying to say women can't read maps ? Actually I debated that point (the exact location of the Bartender) with a few other detectives and we couldn't decide if he was exactly level with, or just south of, the detective shop. In fact, Riza was sure that the Bartender was actually north of the detective shop. But the general consensus was that I needed one more clue. As it turned out ...I didn't. There was a strange logic to it but I'm not telling :)

(P.S. Nice to see you back again!)

3 unsolvable cases - gonna have to quote Kurtz on that:

"Oh the horror! The horror!" Seriously, that's a very nice way of putting it, Summer. I might have had 3 cases left, indeed. I think I'd be banging my head on the keyboard(old Syn, lol) if that were to happen so I'd better shut up :))

And thanks for the encouraging words. I had no idea how first AVH's can go in general.

Oh this thread is gonna make me weep.

I made 3 fa's lol. I deserved this. I absolutely deserved to rot in hell. Gilbert deserted me.

400k xp deserted me.

12 skill points deserted me. (-8 now boohoo)

And all my contacts waved goodbye, it was so touchy as we were running towards each other in slow motion, and crying "oh no" like it came from a cd player with dying batteries.

Gilbert, I am going to find you!

Geez, what a day!
