ummm k. i really hope this is the place to talk about anything related to SLEUTH, like the sign said, cuz this is pretty random.

anyhow -with all due respect to the maker's efforts to maintain the feeling of the time period being reproduced- it strikes me as funny that in the 8 or so weeks that i've been playing this game, i have NEVER encountered ANYONE named either john or mary

and yet on the other hand I am routinely interrogating people named like Girish Yelverton.

*goes back in time to the roaring twenties and prevents and angry hood wearing mob from harrassing the union of a south asian lass with a very WASPy-type gentleman*

hee hee go periodicy.

Oscar Meyer, I had a similar problem in Shanghai. With three people with names like Yue You, You Yue, and Yu Yue or Lei Du and Li Du, I find myself second and third checking names before doing anything.

It also bugs me that I can't tell if they're male or female, sometimes they're both!

regarding real life names, I had a teacher who had two twins called black and blue. They had an older brother named boysen and a younger sister named raz. There last name of course were Berry. Cruel isn't it.

Anyone ever got their real name coming up? Both my first name and my last name are out there, and I keep waiting to be freaked out by having to accuse myself.

(Yep, you got it, my name is Ping Houseknecht)

I've only seen my first name used on here. I don't think anyone else has my last name or has even heard of it before.

I saw a "tou-mou" in Shanghai...if only you knew what's the meaning of "tout mou" in French especially when it's apllied to a well-known part of the body LOL (even funnier concerning an Asian)
