Do you have what it takes to outlast all others? Do you think you can rise above the rest and stand out as the ultimate contender? Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen to Survivor: Sleuthville!

10 Detectives enter, face off against each other in a different challenge every week, and the last left standing will be crowned Sleuth Noir Survivor! The winner will walk away with a one-year subscription to Sleuth Noir and bragging rights over the entire community. The rules are simple:

1. The first ten Detectives to post an entry will be entered and placed on two teams of five.

2. It's advisable to be subscribed. Some of the challenges may require travel, and if you can't participate, it's likely your team will vote you off at elimination. I won't bar anyone based on this, but it's your call.

3. The losing team at the end of each event will have to vote off one member. To do that each team member will submit a PM to me, which will remain anonymous with the name of the person he or she is voting for, and a short reason why. It can be as simple as-

Name: Heimlich VonVictor
Why: He didn't write any of the poem. It's no wonder we lost!

4. Challenges will be one week long and a winner will be announced at the end, in the event of a tie, a coin will be flipped.

5. Anyone may enter including mods, editors, or even Ben and Sunny themselves if they so choose.

6. The contest will begin when all ten detectives have entered and been placed on teams. It will conclude after nine weeks of elimination challenges.

That's all! Get out there and outwit, outplay, and outlast!

The nerve of you all with these ridiculous allegations! I think you are all looking for a way to make FA's without paying Shady! :-P

Now I tell you I did NOT cheat, however I can't speak for my teammate Aknas! ;-)

Oh... come on Ctown, of course you cheated!?
Just admit it, you used all the help that's on the website of Dawg Pound Investigations .... ;-)

Trying to point the finger elsewhere ctown? now THAT'S suspicious....

Boy! Finally finished the hunt. I had only 1 quit for the entire hunt, used my travel kit + 1 extra sidekick case, plus i moved my apartment around. So... besides bad luck with repeating repeating repeating clues, what was the problem?

1) I never learn about the implication of a certain "NOT the _______" clue (No spoiler. New AVH players, do your research. I paid for my ignorance big time). If i knew, i would've finished yesterday. Next time, i shall be stronger ;)

2) Everyone's crazy. How can everyone finish it in 3 days? (okay, hats off to you all)

Ctown! How could you???? And here I was, prepared to defend you... But you did tell me some 'tricks' which I chose not to use. :-P

I always consider the "Not the ____ " clue heaven sent. But not if you have already spent 11 cases before getting it. And it only applies to some cities though.
