From time to time I hear people complain/despair/laugh manically about repeat clues. Although I have encountered the same problem occasionally, my current hunt is awash with them. However, my question is whether the same type of 'NOT the' clue can occur twice in one city?

Example for Delhi:
is a MAN x3
NORTH of the BANK x7
EAST of the BANK x 4
NOT the HOLY MAN x 4

This narrows things down to either the Bartender or Missionary. As there isn't any other landmark (e.g. north of detective shop etc.) that would exclude one or the other, can I expect to receive another clue of the NOT the (whoever) type? I'd appreciate some feedback as otherwise I'll feel stuck in an eternal loop :)

NOT clues, MAN/WOMAN clues, EAST/SOUTH/WEST/NORTH clues, all clues get repeated. Just 'try' to be patient for a little longer, Delhi is the most despised city of the 5 when it comes to Villain Hunts. I've seen 8 cases solved in a row with the same 'the co-conspirator is NOT the HOLY MAN' clue in my face.

Just take a little bit of muscle relaxant and let it come to you...Usually, I think the game takes pity on you when you've quit so many cases that seem hard to you and they end up throwing you an easy case with the needed clue. But that happens once every 50 Quits...So....

Good luck!

Thank you Cordelia â€" you answered my question completely :)

Wow, Syn. Muscle relaxant and 50 quits and all......I had no idea you got so stressed about the game (lol).

Don’t pretend that you don’t like the tough cases though â€" they are the grooviest to solve!

And what are those strange little diamond things? The online equivalent of UFOs?

Letter of "I Don't Want"s to Ben
--------------------------------------

I don't like having to bang my head on the keyboard, Ben. And neither do I wanna be the working class hero. Really.

3 different clues repeated 21 times in total in Shangai? I am flattered.
But I don't want to be. Lol.

I don't want you to take this letter seriously either. You may, however.

*This whole thing almost sounded like Toni Braxton's love song. *

IS EAST of the race track x 12 (isn't it cute)
IS A WOMAN x 6
IS WEST of the bank x 3

Updating myself: It took me 28 clues to finally leave Shangai for NY.

When the AVH came out, there was an oversight in Delhi.

Blue spent about 2 weeks in Delhi with repeat clues. After a few PMs to Ben, because two weeks is a really time to have repeat clues, it was discovered the hunt couldn't be solved!

There weren't enough clues or a clue had been missed out...

So yeh... repeat clues suck... but two weeks of repeat clues only to find out that it's going nowhere...
