Sleuth had its commercial launch in April of 2004. It is hard to believe Sleuth Noir is 13 years old. It seems like only yesterday that I started playing. There are lots of memories to share and fun times to remember.

For all of you who are new to the game, or are an old timer like myself and forget how sleuth came about you really should read an interview JoJo had with Ben. noir.playsleuth.com/map/city/post.spy?id=8698

JoJo, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. He was one of many players who contributed to sleuth back in the early years. cfm is another player that was always playing when I first joined the sleuth community. She had a reputation for being our historical archeologist, yep, she dug up the old interesting post for our enjoyment and enlightenment.
One player I remember from from then is DaRue. Now I never talked to this player, but her post on the message boards were always so much fun to read she left a lasting impression.
My first agency was the Underground, it was one of the very first agencies in the game, along with Fat Kitten Detective Agency, Mojo, and the number one ranked agency was Starsky and Hutch. I'm not 100% sure,but I think they were not playing much back in October, 2005 when I started playing. They are still on the agency high score list.

So if you have something you remember and want to share, post it here. Or if you ever wondered what all the talk about ponies means? Ask S.S.
What about the Annual AVH tourney. Ever wonder how that came about? There is a story there boys and girls.

Happy Reminiscing.

Not to get to sappy, but my favorite memory of Sleuth is playing Sleuth Truth or Dare with my future husband. I fell in love with him playing that game.

*sniff*

And the rest is history...

I know. When people ask me how I met my wife there's always that awkward silence when I tell them :)

You make a good point about change Badass and I suspect I was one of those people you mentioned who didn't like change (though admittedly none of the ones you mentioned are things that I would have opposed). In my defence I was a lot younger then and my attitude was a lot different then too.

As for relationships, I've had the awkward silence and fake 'Oh Wow' when people realise how we met too. We've also had a lot of genuine comments about how amazing it is to connect to someone like that online.

I genuinely had no idea until I came back to the game this time round that you Badass and Sindy had 'gotten together' on Sleuth :)

I remember when Sleuth had it's own convention and Ctown's radio show too

Actually Helen you weren't one of those I had in mind that didn't like change. It doesn't matter however.

I also took a long break from Sleuth. Somewhere from 2008 till February last year with some moments of revival in between. Therefore I completely missed the implementation of the nemesis hunts. But it's equally nice to come back and see all sorts of new things.

I think many of us old timers have done the leave and come back for brief periods or longer.

I was also one of those not so sure of how the changes would effect the game and disapproved of some of them including the cap on shady. * Dodges, the rotten friut thrown at her*.

I also remember when I logged in on day to find Mojo was no more.
