I have a couple of questions I'd like some feedback on. Please Answer by replying to this post.

1) Is the game fun? Really fun, kind of fun, funner than going to the dentist?

2) Can you think of anything that would make the game more fun?

3) Is the game too hard? Too easy?

Thanks
-Ben

Shwelds, All times are Sleuthville standard time, or Mountain (USA) If you visit City Hall the current time is listed and you can do the math from there. Hope that helps!

Great job. I love the setup, however I think some agencies have ahcked the system. Might want to look into that. Think it is a challenge, which we should all want as agents.

In regards to Shwelds comments, I assume I am far from unique in totally ignoring the storylines?

I only pay attention to the affiliation information if it is in the case, and of course one can't ignore the text in the featured mysteries.

Otherwise, it is basically a logic puzzle with lots of clicking - the logic I enjoy, the clicking not so much...although it does sort of give the feeling of going from place to place.

Re: featured mysteries, is there a way for sleuths to submit them to you? I bet there would be more that way, and I bet lots of the folks on here would be good at writing them (though I'm not sure I would be...)

Responding to self:

Am now informed that there /is/ a way to submit mysteries.....

If that's so, I think it would be great to put that information out there where it's easy to find - maybe on the Featured Mysteries FAQ?

ok, thanks elvenwonder. No Dr.I am sure you are not the only ones who skip the storylines. You are right, it's the puzzle that get's us going, but the story lines add something too. They give the element that I am not solving the same story with the characters rotated. Anyhow, they were just my share of comments:)

Dr. Falco Maltese,

I wrote a mystery. It's great fun writing it, but be warned, what you think will be 2 or 3 pages on a word processor, WILL turn out to be 9 or 10. Otherwise, I hope to see your mystery soon!

In our agency, we basically only use our smarts gear for checking crime scenes and while we work in the crime lab. Sometimes we forget and log off while wearing it, which annoys everyone else (and embarrasses the person who did it).

It's also annoying to have to click on four things and then click on the four things you usually wear.

There have been suggestions of "hangers" for sets of accessories and for a log off confirmation asking "Are you sure you want to log off wearing this, this, this and this?"

Also suggestions about flagging some items in the locker as "unloggoffable."

Here's a new suggestion to throw into the mix.

Since we can now hire "clerks," what if we could also employ a forensics expert?

Instead of putting on special gear to search a crime scene, we would ask our "forensics team" (as real as our "clerk") to search for us. We could give them the smarts gear we accumulated, so their abilities would depend on our goods, but it wouldn't actually be any of the agents. That would keep us from logging off wearing the smarts gear, and also from having to change clothes as often.

Plus, it's a luxury that gives agencies another thing to pay for...

What do y'all think?

The only potential problem with this is that it would eliminate the need for the smarts evidence skills. But I guess that in order to understand the forensic expert's reports you'd have to have the skills? I agree Moonshh, this would be brilliant for how our agents work and our lazy clicking fingers!

I'd have to agree with Moonshh here. I think its a rather novel and creative idea that keeps us in the illusion of the slueth world, and aliviates many of the gripes and problems of smarts gear, and the time it /really/ does take to put it on. Take if off. Put it on again, etc.

I think it's a brilliant idea, what do you reckon Ben?
