Well, having completed all my daily cases i am making some posts in a sad attempt to feed my interest in this fun game until i can get more cases.

I was thinking how great it would be in the future if we might see a new city for investigators to visit - say Melbourne or even Sydney in Australia.

Being an Aussie myself, i would get a real kick being able to solve crime in my home town of Melbourne :-)

Some of the items you could get in Australia would be fun too - boomerang, Stockman's coat, or akubra (a hat) just to name a few.

Great but a new city would need fresh ideas to, like Cairo, no factions or hunts but the pyramids to0 play through.

Not being an Aussie I can't help on this but what was happening in the 20'2 to 40's that could be developed into a new challenge, that's the best way to get interest going.

So next time you're at a loss Patric have a good think and put some ideas up and we'll have a good debate.

ah dunno, seems a bit of a goer...

Picture:

A kangaroo bounds up to you... "Tst Tst Tst Tst..."

"What's that Skippy? Skeeter McGilacuddy's been knocked off?! Cor Blimey".

You look to the homestead, "Shazza get the ute outa the shed love, some mongrel's knocked off old Skeeter. And get on the two way and see if you can rustle up Ferret and Chooka, they're out fencin' the back paddock where those bleedin brumbies tore through it."

A dainty female voice screeches from inside, "Bloody Hell, darl'. No worries. Want me to call the old man in? He's down by the Billabong takin' a kip."

"Na, she's right. The old bugger's as useless as teets on a bull anyhow." You answer.

As you head over to the shed for your shotty, and a restorative tinny, you mutter to yourself, 'I bet it was a bloody Kiwi!'

Tell me that's not a challenge :D

It's a challenge for us Poms to read let alone work out "Who dun it".

Can anyone translate or do you need a few XXXX's before it all comes clear...

The only Aussie I know is "I hope your chooks turn into emus and they peck your dunny down". Great song.

Well I consider myself well versed in the ways of Down Under having watched Neighbours from an early age.

Still I missed the whole Skippy thing and that seems to have let me down a bit!

Fair Dinkum - dont you blokes know that Emus are our chooks, and that we only spell beer "XXXX" because we cant spell beer.

Strewth - they actually tried a remake of Skipping - but that went off like a stale bottle of XXXX.

Skippy - ah, now that's showing our age! If Australia comes into sleuth then bags I be Skippy cos he always got it right!

I do like the idea of a new city though, maybe Paris or Moscow.
