Have you just had your best day of Sleuthing ever? Solved your first AI case? Got your last contact? Picked up your first treasure? Found a spoon? Finally got into the Prince's Palace?*

This is the place to share the joy, have a 'woot' or two and be congratulated by your fellow Sleuths.

Or maybe you've just had to pay Shady enough cash to finance a small war. Or reached screaming point with the tailor in Delhi. Or been pirated twice in a row. Or fallen into a trap three times running. You can share the woe, too, and we'll commiserate. We've probably been there too.

Me? I'm just happy that after two days' worth of 'south of the race track' I've finally got out of Shanghai :)

(* If you don't get the references, never mind. You could ask someone. Or you could just wait and see what the world of Sleuth brings you further down the line...)

Today I learned that I don't know the difference between east and west so I failed a VH. :]

Mrs. Cullen

You're definitely not the only detective who has gotten the directions turned around. All my sympathies dear.

*pats Mrs. Cullen's back consolingly*

May you find comfort in these songs Mrs. Cullen:

Thank you, Sindy. lol

And Vulkie, I am dying laughing. You have made my mistakes much more bearable. hahaha

And yet another completely useless clue in my Nemesis Hunt.

Feb-15-2018 19:01

Almost 2 years and 32 clues later, I feel like I am still so far away from capturing my Nemesis.

I feel your pain, Sindy. My pet hates are sets of clues like this:

E and & are found in the columns on either side of f

f is not in the 1st column

f is not in the 6th column

Getting those last two useless clues is made worse if you've had to, say, deliver 9 library books or packages in order too get them!

5 cases in a row with the client as the murderer.... How am I supposed to make any money! (Luckily there are still favors to do...)

@ Mr. Brains - It seems to happen a lot to newer detectives but the frequency decreases as your gains more experience. Hang in there! 😃

@ Theodora X - it's also particularly aggravating when you shell out 50,000 Sleuth bucks to help a certain townie pay off their gambling debts and you get a clue like that.
