A number of bug fixes and adjustments have been popped into the game today with relation to the Boardwalk content.

Significant bug fixes:

* Players who have had problems with Furores kicking them out instead of letting them start should no longer have this problem.

* The Mirror Clues should be displayed properly on the case page.


Significant adjustments:

* There'll now be eight Furores a day, but players are limited to two tickets.

* There's a Furore schedule in the City Hall, so they can be viewed anywhere except Shangri-La.

* An accessory can now be stored almost entirely without complaint with Jonny the cotton candy seller.

* After 40 minutes the Hall of Mirrors will become significantly easier to solve.

* Any players engaging in espionage will now find there's a delay between uses.

* Clues will immediately re-drop after a player finishes the Furore.

* The 'community clue' locations, i.e. the helter skelter, cinema and telescope will potentially change clues with a clue drop, making them worth revisiting.

* It's now only possible to gain one clue at a time from the roller coaster (though you will still have up to three chances to get that one clue).

* If you're the last player standing the big wheel and roller coaster queues will disappear.

* A badly written Furore read me has appeared.

* Furore ticket offers can be turned off from the Options menu on the Detective Page.


As ever please let me know if you spot any bugs/typos. There's good odds I'll be hanging out in chat whilst Furores are going on for the near future, so feel free to drop in there if there's any problems. Happy Sleuthing.

I suppose if you jump off the helter skelter half way down instead of waiting until you hit the bottom you'd read the clue but not receive it. Actually gaining the clue though and then have it vanish is totally new to me.

I'm wondering if it might be connected with trades. Sometimes I seem to have a double response to a trade. That is, getting two response clues for a single clue offered. I don't usually check to see if both have appeared on grid right away - I write them down in my own notes. Maybe only one actually appears on grid? Will try to keep an eye on this.

Yeti, on occasion I have done the Helter Skelter and it will say So and so's pw is... CLICK....chocolate. But there is another screen that reapeats the so and so's pw is chocolate. If you have clicked on leave before that final screen it won't register on your scoreboard and you have to do it again.

That's intended Sal, the helter skelter is very much against people throwing themselves off it mid-ride.

I got kicked backed back to the log in page while sliding down the helter skelter during a furore :-(

And I thought the helter skelter was "very much against people throwing themselves off it mid-ride."

I guess it has no such compunctions about dumping someone off.

Last person and again dealing with queues for my last clue. This time because someone didn't show up. Wasn't even in the prechat.

And then I had two clues disappear during my second furore. One was on the roller coaster. It showed me a clue I didn't have yet but then switched it to one I already had. No clue what happened to the second one, which was a mirror clue. Because I knew I already had both of those I never checked there.

Grrr.

Is it possible to be offered a ticket after solving an IH favour?
