Can someone explain the relationship, if any, between exp awarded and difficulty of case/solve time/evidence collected-verified/any other factors?

Both doing AI cases, they are doing pretty much the same amount of cases, I pass cases between them to utilize contacts. The one with less exp (and less skill points) is slightly older than the one with more. The are identical detectives with a few slight differences as in age, and total amassed exp points. Let me get the exact figures.

Ok the agents are the same age actually, 84 days.
Gena has 267,920 exp points, 5 skill pts and has solved 385 cases.
Steve has 298,600 exp points, 9 skill pts, and has solved 351 cases.
They both had 0 skill points and Steve has amassed skill points at almost double the rate as Gena. I have always kept them playing at similar levels though there was a time of about 1 week a month or so ago when Steve had a PE contact and Gena didn't so he was doing rid.hard and she was doing incred.
But since I have started measuring them against each other, they have both done AI.

Gena - are you comparing the total skill points or the skill points they have to spend? 5 skill points sounds really really low for a 200K plus detective.

The total they have to spend. I am comparing the rate at which they recieve new skill points. Steve has recieved 9 in the time that Gena has recieved 5.

Oh, and I keep meaning to say that almost impossibles are 5120 experience points per case, since there was a question about it above.

Gena has 127 and Steve has 128 total skill points.

Ohhh, that sounds pretty reasonable. Interesting to note that Steve has just one more skill point although he has over 30,000 more experience points.

OMG after playing for awhile, 'time to solve' did not seem to affect anything.
Today I even went off to make dinner and eat it in the middle of a case and then I won the case and got a skill point !?!

skill points come with experience, has nothing to do with how you solve a case
