I am maybe looking to join an agency but I have a few questions about agencies if anyone can help:

Do I have to be based in the same city as the agency?

When it says 'Maximum Case Files per Detective' what does this mean?

What exactly does an agency do?

I have some questions:
Will one be able to share the money with other agency members in the other or the same city if the subscription expires?
Are there still subscriptions awarded to those who write featured mysteries?
Thanks

No you can't share arch villain hunting through case files. In fact, you don't have any access at all to case files while on a Villain Hunt :)

One question: When an agency member's subscription ends, will he/she be able to send/receive money to/from teammates?

Hi,

I was sent an invitation from an agency and I realized I've had doubts about it: How much time does it take to be regularly and actively involved in an agency? (weekly, daily whatever specification)
Is there a time specified by the agency in order for the detectives to work together on a case or hunts whatever?
Otherwise, can detectives commit to their work all alone so that they do their share of it but the requited detectives alone get to decide when to log in and participate as long as "when" is sensible enough(what time duration is sensible in that case - as in deadline for a treasure hunt or other stuff unbeknownst to me that you do?

In short, what is expected of detectives? If the answer was already posted elsewhere then could you please share the link?

What's expected varies hugely from agency to agency. Some are treasure-hunting powerhouses and will expect you to play a full part in that, others are more about helping each other out and creating a fun place to be. You need to talk it over with whoever's sent you the invite, to check what they want from you, and whether you're a good fit for that agency. Directors should be clear about what their expectations are.

By the way, detectives don't all need to work on a treasure hunt at the same time. It's usually a process that takes several days. Blue Pagoda have explained in detail how it works (as well as lots of other useful info) on their website at http://www.freewebs.com/thebluepagoda/tipshelp.htm (scroll down for the treasure hunting bit).
