Hi Ben is their a glitch in the game system on favors. 3 of my agents have had problems with them in the last couple of days one yesterday had to do 4 cases before they got a favor. My co director had to do 6 cases in a row before he got a favor, and another one of my agents has done 3 correctly and is working on anothe case to get a favor. All 3 of them had no quits or false accuations.
Thanks

Huh? Same as usual for me. :)

I think Skyler is making excuses, because she did not win ALL treasure hunts in the last couple of days. :)

maybe it just came with the changes ben made few weeks ago? I also get favors at weird moments. keep me alert, cause i have to check after every case.

yes, i believe that's so, i think they're coming out a bit more randomly now so you'd have to ask after every case. i just got one after two cases

wierd!

We better be aware then for hunts!

I haven't had any changes in my numbers. I better make sure I start checking after every case.

Hmm, haven't noticed any reason why that would change, unless your detective records got messed up in the database. Is it happening for multiple days in a row on a particular detective?

I think it happend to me b4 but not sure. didnt happen in the last three days though, for sure.

It happened to me last night for the first time.
I actually had a favour, played one extra normal case. Ordinarily, this means after I played the favour, I would have to play 2 normal cases to get the next. I had to play 4. This means I played a total of 5 normal cases to get another favour.

Two other detectives of mine are pretty sure the same thing are happening to them.

We found that sometimes when you start your third case, you can ask a townie what your next favor will be. Maybe one time in 5 they will tell us. I never tried to store that case and see if I could go directly to the favor.

We have also had the problem of occasionally needing a fourth case to get a favor - but that seems to be balanced by someone else in the agency getting one after two, so we thought it might be linked to whether a teammate helped with the case, and then put it back for us. That seems to be when it happens most often. Its not very frequent in any event.
