Congratulations Underground - two treasures in 2 hours 32 minutes!

On the other hand if you had a new hunt starting every time another finished, people within certain agencies would probably get even less sleep than they already do ;)

perhaps so, but if they put allllll thier effort into completing ONE hunt, likelyhood that they'll have enough cases to complete the one that starts right after that would be lower, so it gives other agencies the chance to complete one.

that is true - they only get 8 cases a day - and every time a hunt is completed that means they have a few less cases for the new hunt. It would make it more interesting for those of us who cant be on at the two times the hunts start.

Pretty sure they'd just find alternative ways of getting additional favours :)

I don't think the hunts should be changed. I agree with Chronestrian and say that if you're in a smaller agency you just need to up your game a bit. The larger agencies didn't get to where they are by random luck. I don't think anything shady is going on, I think it gives me something to work for...kind of like a goal. Besides that it's just a game, there is nothing wrong with friendly competition.

Here's a little math lesson: Agency A has 12 agents, each receiving 8 cases per day. Agency B has 2-4 agents, each receiving 8 cases per day. If Agency A properly utilizes all of their alloted cases per day, that egual 96 cases per day which also equates to 32 potential favors per day. In summation, Agency B cannot, and should not expect to be able to, compete with Agency A. There is no way around this truth! As for anyone's sleeping habits, if it doesn't bother them, why should it bother anyone else?
