Great start all, thanks for getting involved. All clues for Day #1 have been successfully solved, below is the location for Day #2 which will start after midnight game time. Some clear players emerging already, with Detroit and Philly tied for the most clues today, so the daily prize has been split. Still plenty to play for! Remember to track progress on the Leaderboard. Event Trivia SO glad there were no cock ups on the first day. Finding these clues then checking every city to make sure nobody was going to find the same answer elsewhere was a drag... |

End of Day 2 and I thought we would start to stumble on some of these clues. Clearly not, as Philly and DT are rattling through them in wicked speed. I'd like to think the hardest ones are yet to come, but I've no idea at this point, considering how quick they're being solved. Shout out for Mona who took four today. Either great teamwork or hella' quick fingers. Four in a single city secures them the bonus of 10 credits for Detroit. Here's your thread for tomorrow, make sure you watch it to get the first clue! Event Trivia What made this challenging was checking each business district thread through when formulating city specific clues, as in the past cities have opened and closed. When they do that, the BD threads gotta go somewhere, so they go to another city. I wrote several great clues then when checking back, found the thread actually belonged to Seattle, or St. Louis, or was a Philly thread in New York. I could have been cruel and sent you looking for a NY clue that was actually in Philly, but that would have been a little too harsh... |

Approaching the halfway point, Mona is leading in the individual race, while its neck and neck between Philly and Detroit for the top City. Some of the harder clues came out today, the order is randomised, so there's no telling if there are harder ones to come or not. Quite frankly, I've forgotten if there were. Here's tomorrow's Clue thread for Day #4! Event Trivia Honestly I thought I'd have more interesting things to say about this event that would last me the 7 days. Oh, well. Try again tomorrow. |

Day #4 is over, roll on up Day #5. Quickly becoming a two horse race between Philly and Detroit. Today was Detroit's day as they widened the gap to take the full 10 credit bonus, putting them ahead of Philly by a day. Still time to get involved though with 3 days left, another city wins all three they will top the chart by current standing. If it turns into a two city draw, we're going to need to switch to a tie break clue... Here's your thread for tomorrow. |

Going into the weekend and Day #6 it's looking like Detroit are in it to win it. The top spot for City is now Detroit or Draw, with Philly needing to catch up by 2 days to force a tiebreak situation. In the individual race, Mona is extending her lead steadily, however with 14 clues left to solve, there's still a lot to play for. Here's your thread for Day #6! Enjoy! |

Here it is, your last day thread. Today was intense, as Philly leave it to the 11th hour, the seventh clue of the day, to pull back a day against Detroit. Detroit still lead and only need to solve four clues to claim victory. If Philly want to draw and take it to a tie brake, they need to get four clues tomorrow. In the individual race, unless Takkar pulls off all 7 tomorrow, then Mona takes the crown. It's all to play for in the second and third runner up positions though. Enjoy! |

That's a wrap, folks. Thanks for everyone's interest, time and energy. Prizes are being distributed now. Detroit managed to seize outright victory on the last clue, after what I expect was a tense day. Philadelphia still pick up second place though. Distribution of City Prizes
