Well it never took off over on the AVL site, so Dawg Pound Investigations is proud to announce that we will be holding a tournament. lilangel and myself have been working the past few weeks to get enough teams interested and finally have them together. If all goes well, there will be more tournaments to follow which we will make open to all agencies. Our tournament will begin on Monday, April 14 and will be 4 or 5 rounds. details can be viewed here:

Here's the link to the rules and progress can be viewed by clicking on the Survival of the fittest link! So far I'm doing well, in city 3 on the first day and only my sidekick case left! Now I'm ready for a day of nothing but repeats! ;-)

OK mister. If you aren't joking then I call shannanigans. This hunt is rigged! I didn't even get out of my first city today :(

Dec-2-2008 11:13

Woohoo! I got a 2 day hunt in competition! But I don't have enough cases to get back to SL to start the next one! C'mon folks, it wasn't that hard to find the villain, you all can do better! :-P

I'll try to remember that when my next hunt takes 7 days! ;-)

Dec-2-2008 18:09

A proper hunt should take 1.3 days per city. Y'all must be cuttin' corners ;)

Dec-2-2008 18:10

for ctown: PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP (wipes off chin) That felt good!!!!

Dec-2-2008 18:13

Is it even technically possible to finish a hunt in 2 days? I smell something fishy here......

Dec-2-2008 18:15

Nicnic you need to stop eating sushi... :P

Oh, it's possible this is how I did it. Keep in mind I took a travel kit with me the entire trip so right there I saved 4 cases

3 cases left

So yes it is possible, even without sidekicks, but as you can see the travel kit is the reason I was able to do it! That can be a topic of discussion for future matches, should the travel kit be allowed since everyone has had the option for them, and also we can revisit if use of apartments should be allowed as we all have access to be able to purchase one. I took the liberty of taking the rules from the original AVL site of Serges, one thing I will keep and it is not open for discussion is there is no use of sidekick cases as not everyone can get them through gameplay.
