By the way, don't bother sending me the answers via Private Message (PM). You'll need to post them here. (Besides, I have no clue what they are anyways, I'm just an old vet who doesn't know any of this stuff. That's why I turned to you eager Newbies to find it out for me. ;-)

Pugilism is a faction skill learned through the Green Hand in London & Delhi, so only subscribers have access to it.


11. When does a detective graduate to Almost Impossible case territory? What's so special about this?

A detective is able to accept Almost Impossible cases once they have an experience of at least 100,000. They're special because the rewards are special items.

The intro to featured mysteries are longer, more details, & "have a story formatted to them".
Featured mysteries don't feature witness evidence. Instead, they have "unlockable questions which are special questions that are unlocked by other questions, actions, etc. These give hints to the murderer, or unlock other questions.
