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.

Not a bug report - just a query. If you have booked a furore time slot, say, a day ahead (as I did in error), are you not offered any other furores until after that one has taken place?

Theodora, that's correct. You won't receive another ticket offer until after the one you're scheduled for is over.

(I know, I'm not yeti.)

Not Yeti #2 agrees with Not Yeti #1. :)

Also, little-known fact: If you schedule a furore for a day or more ahead, you can still get tickets for (and play in) two more furores on that future day, in addition to the one you scheduled yourself for.

I wondered about that Riza.

In the 16:15 furore today there was a completely black screen in pre-chat. I just checked with Keira Ann and she experienced the same thing. It was still black-screen in post-chat.

Hope this is only a minor glitch and can be fixed soon.

All chats are broken.


Yeti are you breaking things? Or did you feed your Mogwai after midnight and give him a bath?

I can confirm that the chatroom is broken. Didn't see my name appear and no text box.

I got in yesterday after a Furore with no problem.

Chats are broken for me as well. :C But I was able to start the furore since I stayed on the page.
