Hiya folks,

I'm not sure how this came about or if this bug is a major thing or not, but having completed my 12 cases for the day I came across this message:

"You currently have -3 cases remaining for today."

Not sure how that's possible! lol

Just thought I'd bring it to your attention in case it does affect people's subscriptions or whatever. Cheers! MDL

Thanks Mel. How about your subscription, did you happen to renew it yesterday?

I remember his happening when people reset their character. ie False Accusations.

Is there some weird Shangri la thing as well that does that. I remember there being some sort of loophole where you could travel from 'somewhere to somewhere' without the right amount of cases and you'd go into the negatives...

I remember a bug that let you travel to Cairo even if you didn't have the necessary number of cases required but I don't remember Shangri La being affected.

I'm on a 3 month sub, Yeti, and I started it quite some time ago - so I don't think it could be that. It could be something to do with Cairo, I guess. I'll pay more attention if it happens again.

mmm yes Cairo, thanks. Like I said 'somewhere to somewhere' :)

All right. Well with subbing and travelling ruled out, I'm lost for ideas. Let's hope it was a harmless freak occurrence!

On a slightly related note, I'm currently seeing a locker-room bug with several items duplicated (I remembered to take some screenshots this time!). Sirens is currently at 31 / 29 items.

One of the items in my character inventory has also been duplicated - the Bejeweled Compact, replacing my White Parrot.

Is anyone else having similar problems? And does the bug resolve itself?

Should I post this as a separate thread?

Cheers. MDL / RDS.

I've just noticed that my Charm stats aren't adding up properly, too. I think the 2nd Bejeweled Compact isn't being counted as an item (I only have 21 Charm when it should be 28).

I believe the locker ghost has plagued the game since lockers first arrived. It's a bit weird your second accessory is not adding to your charm though - have you tried taking it off and putting it back on again?

The locker ghost is something I'll be attempting to exorcise on the next major bug crushing session. Though since it's been around for so long all ready I'd advise everyone not to get their hopes up too soon.
