Hi! I will participate today on the boardwalk today but I think it's in New York, right?
I only have 3 cases left today and I need 4 to travel to New York.
What can I do?

Just checked again, I got nothing above the Sleuthania image.
Not sure if it's a bug or the fact that I'm unsubbed :(
I got ticket, that's for sure, it even appears on my detective page.

Oh, I see it, you've booked yourself in for the 13:15 (SST) furore; in a little less than 6 hours from now (after the furores that are scheduled to take place before yours are done), you should be able to board the seaplane with no problem. You can only board the seaplane when the furore you've got a ticket to is next. This link lets you check the furore schedule (you can find it in City Hall):

Good luck!

Also I think once you go to New York, you will end up having to stay there since you are unsubbed.

Unless you use the seaplane, shell - that only moves you between your current city and the Boardwalk (the Boardwalk directly, not through NY) whether or not you're subscribed. But all unsubbed detectives not in NY have been offered a one-way ticket to NY, which if used, will mean that you will have to stay in NY, like shell says.

And I think there's a chance the seaplane that takes you to the Boardwalk might only be available from the hour before the furore you have a ticket begins, and not as soon as the furore before yours ends, so that'd be a two-hour difference. Will check and confirm.

Specifically the Seaplane should appear to those outside of NY with a ticket after the last Furore has *finished*. It'll always be there for at least an hour before the Furore starts anyhow.

You can safety travel back after the Furore too, even though you're unsubbed.

I was actually referring to point 5 from this list from Yeti

A few minor changes have been added, the most significant of which are:

1) Three new high score tables are now available.
2) The Upcoming Furore list on the case tab outside of the Battery Boardwalk now displays how many players are already signed up to games.
3) Current server time (ST) is listed underneath these lists.
4) It is now possible for free players in cities other than NY to play the Furores using the special Boardwalk transport.
5) Further to that point it is now possible for free players in cities other than NY to travel BACK to NY. However once there they will once again be stuck until either subscribing or another free period comes along.

So Yeti,when did you make an adjustment to unsubbed travel after a Furore?

And Bella sorry, I only read "Unless you use the seaplane, shell", before I went searching and posting. It would behoove me to fully read the post first.

Happens all the time, shell; I was referring to point 4 of Yeti's list so it helps that we have a copy of it here anyway. :) I think it was always possible for unsubbed dets to make use of the seaplane for travel from other cities to be able to take part in furores - they still have to put in some work to be able to win a ticket in the first place.

It's been like that since the post was first made shell. Using the Boardwalk transport entails going to and from the Boardwalk.
