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...)

Congrats, Kachenka.

And, yes trap detection makes all the difference. :)

Frustrating so far. The server seems to be exceptionally slow. It's taking ages for each page to load and quite often I have to *kill* the page. It's definitely not a problem with my PC as all other sites I visit are fine. Plus I'm cache-cleared, PC cleaned, etc

Anyone else experiencing this hyper slowness?

You're not the only one Zara. I've had this problem since I logged on this morning. At this rate I doubt very much that I'll be able to play all my 12 cases. It's very frustrating! :-(

So it seems to be definitely a server problem. Wonder what's up? Now I'm finding that the game speeds up for a short while (say while getting alibis for half my suspects) then slows right down again. Weird!

Last night I made my first ever fail on a villain hunt. And it was well-deserved, that's the problem.

Moral: when you remember that you haven't done your cases for the day, never try to catch up in the wee, small hours, when you're half asleep, and working on auto-pilot.

Ah well - on to the next case!

Well, I've just been lurking for a bit but now I've gotten myself into quite a predicament and figured it'd be fun to share. :P

With the furores being all funky I've randomly accepted a few invites but never been around when I eventually got a message saying "the furore's in 10 mins!" - until now. I think for the most part I just wanted to check if the seaplane still worked. Logged in some 15 minutes ago and saw the 10 minute alert (for what I think is the March 2nd, 00:30 SST game, offset to March 4th, 07:15 SST). Scrambled to complete the case I had open to be able to try to board the seaplane. Successfully did that, hurried over to the seaplane (it worked!) - with all my gear. This will be relevant later. xD

Out of habit, visited Jonny the Cotton Candy guy, freed up an accessory slot. Also relevant later.

Check out the Carousel page to see if the carousel furore chat is up, it is not. :( Well, so much for me ridiculously-hoping-for-a-furore. That's okay, I can check out the Boardwalk anyway. Also, I totally tried out every carousel horse to see if that could trigger a furore. That didn't happen either. Oh well.

Look at my detective page to figure out if I have any packages to be delivered or library books to retrieve from the Boardwalk area (happens really frequently these days) - see that I have to deliver a package to the Big Wheel Operator. Okay!

Then I'm given a furry pink animal. I'm delighted. I look to see when I should pick up the bunny, but no, it's already taken up my vacant accessory slot. ...okay!

But now I can't leave the Boardwalk without retrieving my first accessory from Jonny. And I have no way to swap out or sell or otherwise deal with three accessories in the Boardwalk area. Oops. I guess I'll live here till somebody can pull together funds to airlift me and my mini-zoo out of here. :P
