Is this happening to anyone else, or is it just me?

The last two times I've tried to travel for my AV hunt, I've been pirated twice in a row. By the time I get to the other city I've lost an entire day's play!

The "twice in a row" thing has happened before to me as well. Right now I just played a couple cases, got pirated twice and now I'm stuck here and have to wait until tomorrow to do anything... but I just got my new cases an hour and half ago. =(

The first few times I tried to travel one right after the other.
This time I waited awhile... and it still happened. Maybe I didn't wait long enough? I just assume it's random like everything else, but maybe it's not... maybe it's based on time?

Is this normal? It's driving me crazy! I wait up to get new cases, play a couple and then lose all the rest to Pirates! (Yes, I know I'm complaining... lol. I'm just frustrated!)

(Mods, if this is considered a spoiler and you have to erase it, do you have any thoughts on this that you could PM me?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Note to Admin:

IF I am to pirated during my journeys, I do not wish to just see a skull and crossbones flag, I want, at the very least, to be thrown over a pirate's shoulder and carried away to the pirate ship to be thoroughly ravished by at least one if not more of the aforementioned pirates. For $3,000 bucks and 3 cases, I think it's the least they could do!!

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sindy, think about this.

Pirates. REAL pirates. Stuck-alone-at-sea-for-months-at-a-time-without-soap-or-female-company-resorting-to-nothing-more-than-each-other-for-certain-types-of-"attention" pirates. NOT Johnny Depp.

Just sayin'.

You're one of those people that have to ruin EVERYTHING, aren't you? :)

Besides - we're not dealing with REAL pirates here in Sleuth, are we? I'm just sayin'. :)

Bah, let 'em take you Sindy.

Besides, what good is waiting for Hostage Negotiation without... um, I dunno... HOSTAGES?

If you're willing to volunteer, then I say go with Ben...er, God.
