Too many people have fake alibis...in real life who the hell would want to give a fake alibi to a detective if he is innocent? In my case 3 people had fake alibis.
Too many people clamm up upon the FIRST time I ask them a question. FIRST time. In my case, FOUR people clammed up when I asked them the FIRST question.

Those two in one case, already makes my case impossible. If you can figure out how to do my case I would give you 1000 bucks

Is my luck just bad? Or my detective sucks?

Looks like your next pick should be more smart skills and higher charm skills. If you find that you need to have more clues about evidence to solve a game, get smart skills (like footprint analysis), if you find that the problem is more related to people clamming get the additional sweet talking (if it is related to suspects clamming), of rule bending (if it is towns people causing the problem.)

You got interrogation, don't get any of the tough skills. This with exception of lock picking at some point.

*decides she wants a vote too*

I'd say flirting, it gives you that dashing smile worth +20charm that the opposite sex rarely can resist.

Or...I'd agree with Rock and say research. But then, when I start a new detective, the first skill I purchase is research. :)

*waves her hand at all the voices telling her that the interview skills are more important*

I know, I know, I've heard it before, but it just depends on how you play. Me, I need that research, it completes the box that holds everything together.

I second research. And flirting really helps - but only on opposite sex. Adv. Sweettalk adds either + 10 or +15 on all suspects, and flirting adds +20 on opposite sex.

Someone should mention that in order to be in one of those alliance things (agencies) you have to be subscribed. After that there are plenty that'd be glad to have you. :)

Research definitely, my advise was in addition of the research comment. Research is my favourite skill.

oh..so I have to be a subscriber to be in an agency? Thats sad :P I am only schooling and neither have I got a credit card or friends allow me to use theirs. It's kinda expensive eh?

What exactly does research do? and should I stick with the hard cases? or should I do the intermediate ones?

Actually the price of the game is pretty reasonable I think, but that's subjective. :)
Research allows you to eliminate one non abili'd suspect.
Skill points decrease as exp. increases.
