It would be helpful, I think, to know who opened the treasure hunt. That way they get the credit and the agency could pay the possibly pay them back.

I agree with Torrey.I have lost a hunt within seconds of another agency solving it as it is a very competitive nature. I would rather have someone crack the safe to win instead of losing it all together.
Maybe if the other agencies were very far behind maybe doing the last hunt would be okay.That is why the majority of my agency has safecracking so they can share the glory.But does it really matter whose name is on the trophy. A well rounded agency should share the accomplishments of trophy winning and happy to have won a hunt.Sadly to say that is what the high scores(fame points and how many hunts won) is based majorally on.I still liked the idea of the runner up to get "fame points only" as a consulation prize.My agency would have alot more fame points then.lol

We tried lobbying for partial fame points for getting some of the favors. (Like 5 fame points for each favor you got so the winning agency would get 300 fame points, but a losing agency that tried would still get 20 or 25 for getting the first 4 or 5 favors.) Ben didn't seem too excited by that, though.

YAY!

Yeah I TOTALLY agree with the having a counter for people and how many hunts they helped win. That would be way cool.

Hey DaRu you shoulda seen ME the first time I won a hunt. I was literally about to scream and grabbing my innocent brother standing next to me and shaking him and yelling "I WON IT I WON IT!" And of course no one from my agency was on to witness my sheer excitement on MSN so that made me even crazier. :-D

I know the feeling Meglet! When I won my first hunt, well the agency won the hunt, I should say, when I got the final favor to bring the treasure home, I was extremely excited. I ran out and hollered at my fiance` that I was able to bring the treasure home and he had this bewildered look on his face and I even made him read the City News. I believe he thought that I lost my mind BUT I didnt care, I was soooo happy!!! hehe

Congrats. That is the one good thing about having the last person's name in the Trophy room, it really gives insentive to finish it when you start to get close.
