I've found hundreds just on my own, and all the mortarboards, Chenongsams, and satin slippers I can shake a stick at.

I, for one, think we need some new items in the mix. I don't even care if they're unique, or creative, or super-rare; just some new stuff in the marketplace.

Who's with me?

I want a goat.

What earthly reason would you want a goat for?

Next thing you know, SS is going to rave about ponies or something.

Goats can be used in a variety of ways. They are best used if they are gin-soaked, in my experience.

Give... me... goat...

I once knew a goat called Baggins that was used as a lawnmower. Maybe you're right, nicnic, and gin should have been involved somehow.

BOT: I'm still waiting to find one of these exciting purple wotsits (eta in Cordy's kit is circa 2017), but I take your point.

If we can have Rasputin's egg, maybe we should also be able to find Lenin's chicken, General de Gaulle's egg whisk and Henry VIII's omelette.

Liking this theme ;)

How about:
~ Marie Antioniette's cake stand (+ for charm, - for smart)
~ Queen Victoria's joke book (+tough, + smart, - charm) ... she was so often 'not amused'
~ Edison's Light Bulb (+++smart)

Are you aware that we do have rare items out there? Two that have yet to be found by anyone.

I'm aware there are 2 items out there that haven't been found in years (frankly, I'm convinced one of them is unfindable), and I'm also aware that SS recently added a few seasonal items.

What I'm saying is, add a few more favor/AI case items into the regular mix, even if it's just a couple to mix up what you get from cases regularly. :)

i'm hoping to do that regularly. The Ai items on 4 July received were instead of fine leather briefcase and erm medal of scholarship, or close enough to those two.

I'll be doing something similar for Olympics I think.

I'd have to talk to Ben about permanent additions.

Of course the other thing is that agencies are gonna get pretty full of players collecting stuff, and so wll agencies, so that needs to be addressed too. And the more items you pump into the pool the slower for example the Tigers Sleeepers quests become. as an example.

Just like In Scripted Mysteries every cause has to have an effect, and in this game there's usually three or four :s

We're approaching Halloween! I think I've missed every Halloween event ever. I missed Diego masks!!! :(

I intend to break said trend this year.
