Have you just had your best day of Sleuthing ever? Solved your first AI case? Got your last contact? Picked up your first treasure? Found a spoon? Finally got into the Prince's Palace?*

This is the place to share the joy, have a 'woot' or two and be congratulated by your fellow Sleuths.

Or maybe you've just had to pay Shady enough cash to finance a small war. Or reached screaming point with the tailor in Delhi. Or been pirated twice in a row. Or fallen into a trap three times running. You can share the woe, too, and we'll commiserate. We've probably been there too.

Me? I'm just happy that after two days' worth of 'south of the race track' I've finally got out of Shanghai :)

(* If you don't get the references, never mind. You could ask someone. Or you could just wait and see what the world of Sleuth brings you further down the line...)

Please, next you'll be asking us to hold the applause; congrats SS! :D I'll put you down for next year's Tourney...wait, where are you running off to??

Did the favour thing really happen?

May-14-2015 07:51

SS, I saw the announcement on the City News and sent you a virtual bow of congratulations. :) (ok, I just re-read that and would like to clarify that's 'bow' as in genuflection rather than looped ribbon or archery equipment)

Are you really trying to track down butchers in London? I could ask a friend for recommendations...

Let's all chip in to send SS a piece of archery equipment made from looped ribbon.

Only 450+ to get back to no 1 :s

I hit 2,000,000 exp points!

May-19-2015 11:32

Congrats, Iset! :)

May-19-2015 13:00

Yes, well done Iset. You'll be over taking me in no time.

I just got the favour we need for a TH (the one we've been waiting for, for two or three days) and the crime scene gives me 3 hairs and 1 thread. Awesome, my contact here is the Barber. I managed to unconsciously analyse all three hairs but apparently I just couldn't handle the thread. That's fine until all three hairs end up coming from honest, real-alibi-giving heads. Now, I have to match the un-analysed thread to one of my other four suspects. It would be funny and all, if it didn't happen ALL. THE. TIME.

Thanks, Bela and Yeti.

Bela... that happened in over half my cases yesterday. Real fun.

"Intro author ctown28

Shahinda Ghanem walked into my office and asked me to solve a murder."

...

THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is the best intro I've ever read. (Seriously, there are probably better, but I haven't actually READ them).

Not sure why it tickled me so, but I snickered through the entire case.
