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?

k thanks. been hacing some major exams lately. I hope skill points wont go down to 0.2 or sumthing.

Aug-31-2005 05:48

no no, new skill points decrease in frequency, the ones you have are yours forever.

Aug-31-2005 06:46

yea I understand that..I meant I hope I dont end up with 0.2 skill points after a case. Twill take m five cases to get 1 skill point. and BTW I got NONE for my last case. usual huh?

Aug-31-2005 06:55

yup.

bball, takes about ten of the Impossible cases for those of us who've been here a while to get a skill point...so....

The lesson is the spend your skill points wisely...I wasted 7 on interogation already damn it.. :(

That's part of the game, yes you learn to value them very much. I, being a tough detective, wasted 7-8 on flirting which is as useless to me as interrogation is to you.
I think everyone has some skill in their portfolio that they kick themselves for buying.

I'm half regretting lashing out on my first smarts skill. Definitely should have gone for AST. But still, I did find a few threads today, so it's not been a total disaster...

I regret flirting. That was a waste for me, as i never use sweet talking, but interogation
