Is there anyone else out there that gets frustrated when you are doing multiple hunts and two of them need the same favor and when you complete the favor it just tells you about one of them??? Normally it wouldn't matter to me, but since we are a newer agency, we do better on single city hunts. We have two hunts open and both needed the fortune teller...when someone completed the fortune teller he gave us the info on the multi-city hunt. Just wondering people's opinions.

Yes, I think it's reasonable that the favor is only good for information on one hunt, but it stands to reason that since our characters are the ones asking the questions, we would ask about the one we care about most. We've talked about this before, so BEN please take note!

Pretty please?

Ben previously informed me that the information given is on the hunt that is the "oldest". It would be nice to be able to choose for which hunt the information is given. It is better to advance a newer hunt in which your agency is still in the running, as opposed to advancing a hunt in which another agency is way ahead and you and have no hope of catching up. Earlier today we (S&H) had three hunts all requiring a bartender favor in Shanghai. (Not that I lucked out and obtained a favor case for the bartender, apparently my services were required by everyone but)

Thanks Des that maybe helpful restraining future fustrations on why I don't get favor

I'm bumping this because it cost us a very big hunt today that would've made us the number one agency in SleuthTown.

You'll get there soon enough, Bryola; keep the faith!

Do I sense another petition looming on the horizon?

Another Jojo poll?

Just a suggestion but maybe Directors should have the option of quitting a hunt. If they decide one hunt takes precedence over another, quit one and concentrate on the other where they feel the team has more of a chance. If a certain favour/hunt is desired then they can make that sacrifice.

I also find this annoying we should have won that large hunt and because we got screwed by another hunt needing that favor we gotr we lost it. As bry said we should have won that hunt to put un at number 1 and because our favor we needed to win it went to the other hunt we lost it this is very annoying.

I think the quitting option is better. Or perhaps that we have to pay to bribe the townie for the answer we want. It doesn't seem right that we should be able to choose with no cost involved at all to the agency.

I know you're right, Moonshh, we'll get there eventually. I just wanted to do it with style :)

And where's Jojo when you need him? Eh, lets start our own petition!
