Possible abuse

My roommate (the 3rd member of Two Roommates) tired of his character with toughness and charming skills and was going through the process of making a character he preferred. In this process the test character (Belfrey) lucked out and got the next step in our treasure hunt as his first favour. This got to me to thinking about how this could be abused. Not only with treasure hunts but also with feeding a character potentially infinite cases in one day with a dummy account. Perhaps there could be a change to the system so that the first 2 favours performed or the favours performed on the first day of life do not count towards treasure hunts. Also perhaps there should be a limit on how many times an account can be remade in the same day? Chime in with your feedback on this topic.

You do have to be a paid member to join a treasure hunt, but you can retire your character on purpose to get more cases per day.

Yes, you can. I think the only issue is with Treasure Hunts. I can't really think of another place where it would be particularly beneficial. I'll have to plug that hole.

You could use a dummy acount to feed a character infinite cases per day to solve through the case files. 5 for each new name you make up. I agree though, Treasure hunts are the real problem though.

Good point. I suppose the solution would be to not allow a new user to join an agency until they are atl east one day old.
Anybody hate that idea?
