strange things are afoot with the Sushi-K.

i'm on a mac with osx and i use firefox usually. but when i went on with internet explorer, i saw that i had the option to play Almost Impossibles (not that i would) but that option does not even show when i am on firefox.

but i can't play easily on internet explorer because all the pictures are off-set from where they should be. i.e my shoes are covering my detective bio instead of covering my shoe-space. and the Delhi real estate agency icon is covering the link for the Newbie FAQ's instead of being on the map!

anyone else have the same issues?

Sushi Kitty, until the day before yesterday I was using an ibook with OSX and Firefox. (it died sadly, now using a pc laptop with Firefox). The AI link was always there--once I hit 100K experience points. Which you, like, just did. Go back to Firefox. Run! lol

Yep I'm with Ara. Freaky coincidence. 100,000 just as you used Explorer.

I use Mac. *hugs screen* And Explorer is THE WORST browser you could possibly use. Even Microsoft say don't bother, we're not making upgrades for Mac anymore. Firefox it def. Yep, lol, flee I say flee.

Thank you, but I doubt it was coincidental. I've been at 100,000xp and above for a few days now, before i ever accessed explorer. what i'm saying is that when i use firefox, even now at 111,000 xp, i DO NOT see the AI cases. I would never have seen the AI cases had i been using explorer to access a website that required me to use explorer. I can have the Sleuth page open simultaneously in Explorer and Firefox and Explorer will show the AI cases but Firefox will not. it does not exist in firefox and i don't know how i would be able to access an AI case using Firefox because there is nothing to click. yes, i played some cases to get more xp and signed in and signed out and refreshed and everything and it does NOT show in Firefox.

and though i can access the AI cases in explorer, i wouldn't want to play them because of the graphical issue. Seemingly, the only solution would be to open an AI case in Explorer and then switch over to FireFox to solve it. That would be annoying.

I was hoping that someone else with more tech skill than me could identify the problem and solution or indicate that it is a bug that needs reporting.

That is so odd! Sounds like a glitch of some sort, but like I said, I had no problems on my mac accessing the AI cases. Maybe worth reporting to admin?
