Everyone has suggestions for new things they would like to see in Sleuth. Well, this is a thread for those ideas. Just post a one or two line synopsis of your concept(s), with a small additional informational blurb if two lines is not enough to capture it. Discussions regarding specific ideas will take place in a separate thread, to keep this one running smoothly. Please do not include complaints, critiques, or other discussion on this thread, for purposes of flow. Anything that is not specifically done for the purpose of outlining an idea will be deleted.
All ideas will be considered; even if no discussion thread for them is immediately started, don't lose heart. Ready, get set, post!

i like the idea of just having one, for continuity sake. the idea of an arch-nemesis isn't someone who causes you trouble just 'once', but who you're in continual turmoil with. having them escape periodically sounds like a good idea, even if the reward might reduce back down to somewhat less than the original prize.

The Heigh Leigh Irregulars would like to apologize for our prolonged absence. Unfortunately, the 'top secret' mission on which we were sent came to naught. After scouring the world over, we have come to the terrible conclusion that, although it is possible to find a leopard-print fez, none are available with a neon pink tassel - not even for special order.
Now that we have (thankfully) returned from said mission, it's time to jump into the ideas pool with both feet. Listed in the next post are the ideas HLI has collected for consideration, and we hope to have an answering post up within the next few days.
In the meantime, we would like to remind people that this thread is for the expression of ideas only. If people wish to discuss the merits of an idea further, it would be appreciated if they began a new topic for it within 'Sleuth Talk'.
Thank you.
