A number of bug fixes and adjustments have been popped into the game today with relation to the Boardwalk content.

Significant bug fixes:

* Players who have had problems with Furores kicking them out instead of letting them start should no longer have this problem.

* The Mirror Clues should be displayed properly on the case page.


Significant adjustments:

* There'll now be eight Furores a day, but players are limited to two tickets.

* There's a Furore schedule in the City Hall, so they can be viewed anywhere except Shangri-La.

* An accessory can now be stored almost entirely without complaint with Jonny the cotton candy seller.

* After 40 minutes the Hall of Mirrors will become significantly easier to solve.

* Any players engaging in espionage will now find there's a delay between uses.

* Clues will immediately re-drop after a player finishes the Furore.

* The 'community clue' locations, i.e. the helter skelter, cinema and telescope will potentially change clues with a clue drop, making them worth revisiting.

* It's now only possible to gain one clue at a time from the roller coaster (though you will still have up to three chances to get that one clue).

* If you're the last player standing the big wheel and roller coaster queues will disappear.

* A badly written Furore read me has appeared.

* Furore ticket offers can be turned off from the Options menu on the Detective Page.


As ever please let me know if you spot any bugs/typos. There's good odds I'll be hanging out in chat whilst Furores are going on for the near future, so feel free to drop in there if there's any problems. Happy Sleuthing.

You're both very welcome. :-)

Oh I think every winner is going to miss the robbing blind strategy. In fact I imagine when Secret Squirrel sees the change he'll be having stern words with me.

Has it gotten any more difficult to obtain furore tickets? I might be imagining it, but I feel like I haven't gotten tickets despite solving cases left and right! It used to be I'd get them within a couple cases.

How long a period must one wait before being able to rob again. It seems to last forever. :-(

Mrs Cullen, there may have been a period earlier when getting tickets was harder than normal. They should be back on track now!

Charlie, it's long enough to complete bust the three candy smash down ending.

Since there are eight furores a day, are they now on a set schedule? I've noticed they have been running the same times since Tuesday.

The schedule should have some leeway, but with eight games they're going to be basically at those times consistently.

I've just been kicked out - again.

How does espionage work?
