I was sure that it was impossible to get a false accusation and now i supply clear evidence that the game make mistakes (unfortunately huge mistakes)


The Unique Case of the Ancient Room

Victim: Landry Belle, age 27
Difficulty: Incredibly hard
Favor For: Priest
Politics: La Cosa Nostra (Positive)
Order of Socrates (Negative)


Physical Evidence
1. Footprint from a slim person
2. Thread from female's clothes (Ruth Belle)
3. Handwriting from someone who is right handed
4. Hair from someone with curly hair

5. Ruth Belle
I needed to keep moving forward with my investigation, so I figured it was as good a time as any to pay a visit to the victim's Sister, Ruth Belle. She extended her left hand to greet me and we exchanged pleasantries. She was a slim, rather arrogant woman; even the way she brushed a curly hair off her shoulder rubbed me the wrong way.

Motive: Victim Forgot Birthday
Alibi: Banker (fake)

The Unique Case of the Ancient Room
Nope. That's wrong. The real killer was Nora Abbott.

You falsely accused an innocent woman. There was no physical or witness evidence to indicate that Ruth was the murderer. The Priest, Manfred Gesling is very disappointed that you weren't able to solve the mystery. If you falsely accuse three people, your detective's license will be taken, and you'll be out of a job.

I recently had the same problem, an unexplainable FA. It cost me 2.6 mil. with Shady. I had to sell some furniture and borrow $$$ to insure I could stay in the game. I suggest putting a cap on what he can charge.

Hello Vampirion,


Yep, it looks like you did find an actual bug.

There were two Ruth Belle's in your case. One of them had the fake alibi and the other one had the Thread.

A few years ago, this used to be a more much more common bug, so people were (usually) more likely to double check names and images. But I thought we'd straightened it out.

Basically, the name "Ruth" appears in two different places in the list of possible suspect names. I'm fixing that now so it won't happen to anybody else. I'll also double check the names list so nobody else gets bitten.

I'll credit you the $475k you spent on shady.

Sophie,

Do you remember the approximate date on your last FA, the one you thought was bogus?

I should note:

There is the more common scenario where some names (particularly in Shanghai) can be either male or female, so you might have a man and a woman who are related and share a name in a case. I'm going to go ahead and get rid of those situations now as well.

Thanks everybody, sorry for the FAs.

Hi Ben,
no I don't remember the date of that second FA, I reported it at the time but got too nervous to wait for a reply. I do hope you will give some consideration to putting a cap on Shady's demands, its not as though Sleuthville benefits from his greed its just punitive.
