An early start this year. Secret Squirrel and I have scattered a reindeer outfit for you all to find around the Sleuth world. Some of it can be found through exploration, other parts through putting in some work, but there'll be no need to explore any caves or catacombs. That's all the hints you'll be getting from here! You will only be able to find one of each piece per detective, so do try to avoid selling it off.

Now, this isn't just any outfit; it's a special one. Starting from the 20th, and continuing on to January 20th, if the complete outfit is worn all its pieces will receive a huge stat boost and travel kit style bonus. For that period, whether you like to get your information through tough or charming skills, it'll be the best equipment for the job; crime scene examination included.

There is also a new piece of furniture available to buy in apartments for $5000 that doesn't take up any space. This can be used to store pieces of the reindeer outfit, and pieces of the reindeer outfit only. The exception to this is if you want to swap a piece of the reindeer outfit out for something you're wearing at the time, however you can then only swap the non-reindeer item back out for a reindeer one (or else have an empty equipment slot).

Finally, as with the elf outfit last year, there'll be a title for everyone who completes the outfit with a special title going to the first to do so. In addition to this, there's a new highscore table which will track the fastest detectives to put together their reindeer outfit. Nothing says happy holidays better than bragging rights.

With everything else said; happy hunting everyone! Happy hunting one and all.

Devi, I must have lost my damn mind. I put my third detective on the boat today. Got what he needed at the first opportunity. Hope that's not too spoilery. Now I have 3 days of seasickness, reheated frozen food, and all you lot that's stuck on here with me.

I've even figured out how the boats could work. You can only use them after completing at least one case and one favor. You could only use it to shorten the journey by one day. It could cost a case or two, I dunno. But all that's above my pay grade.

Accurate video, Squirrel :)) and yes, anything would be better than being stuck there. That means we all need to rack our brains and make that ship more fun. On top of the escape boats, more needs to happen here, I think. Ehat, I do not know right this second though.

What about a scavenger hunt ticket? For $35,000 (or whatever) you can stay on board round trip. During those 6 days there would be an item (maybe an IH favor item) posted on a certain thread in the game room. If you don't find the item that day, it doesn't count. Whoever has found the most items at the end of the trip wins a certain amount of money. Say, $50k.

How we would store or keep track of that though I have no idea and would probably cause a massive headache for yeti. So that's my vote yes, ;)

Before we start messing with the boat I think Cairo should come first if changes are going to be made.

Yeah, that would be incentive enough to stay there, lol. Maybe a new faction too, one that you have to grind rep for, delivering those scavenger items, for instance. And so you'd earn a skill to use the life boats.
