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.

Sadly, you need code-yeti not creator-squirrel. You may be trapped in the Boardwalk forever. FOREVERRRRR!

ANd yet more...the spyce shows up when we tried to leave the boardwalk!!!

Jul-9-2017 22:49

It needs to be fixed asap and Aspen and Anais and myself need to be compensated!

Jul-9-2017 23:07

ANd here we go again...It should be 11:06SST which is PST as well..

Server on here has jumped to Server Time: 06:04 Mon, Jul-10-2017 and reset all the cases already.

How about asayia :) "as soon as yeti us awake" :)

Sorry for the furore dramas.

I know yeti has put a lot of work into this, and I know that his intention is not to cause anyone distress :) although I find it slightly amusing to imagien you stuck on a carousel, going round and round and round. But I digress...

Many, many, furores have worked perfectly well, and happy pets roam the gritty streets of Sleuthville loyally by their masters and mistresses sides. So let's not lose sight of the positives :)

Yeti is, I'm sure, as Ben and I always are, very grateful for your gentle tolerance and patience, as a few bugs pop up now and then.

Squirrel out-ish.

The server has obviously switched to GMT, but there are no new cases for me. Funnily enough, the message boards still show the normal "Sleuth time".

I know right. I think we can stop blaming the poor furores. Oh and 20 minutes and the furore will expire, so you should get bumped out then.

Jul-9-2017 23:32

Here's to hoping that happens. I have doubts.

Jul-9-2017 23:45

Your doubts were right..0 time remaining and I still get spyce error trying to leave Boardwalk.

Jul-9-2017 23:47

Oh and now I see that the furore is in the negatives for time remaining and its as if Aspen and Anais and myself are still competing in a furore.
