How to unlock the Cleaned achievement in Hypnospace Outlaw - Definitive Guide
***THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS MISSABLE***
I've seen at least one place stating that this achievement is for closing all 15 cases but I don't think this is true. I just popped it on November 26th after closing my 9th case so I believe it's for closing the 5 "missable" cases that are available during this section of the story. The achievement description "Cool Chat Goop Cash Accountant" seems to allude to these 5 specific cases.
This whole solution is going to be full of detailed information, much of which is filled with what could be considered spoilers, so I'm going to issue this warning against reading ahead instead of dotting multiple spoiler tags all over the place. Everything is either talking about things that you should have already done by the time you've reached November 26th or explaining stuff that is currently happening so it's not like major spoilers that give away what happens later in the game. The only spoilable thing is what triggers the story moving on from November 26th so I'll hide that, althought it's pretty vague.
***POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD***
The requirements for Cleaned seem to be closing 5 specific cases that all occur on November 26th. Obviously you need to reach this point in the story before you're able to do them, and I believe you only have to complete 2 of the 5 to progress the story so it's possible to totally skip the others. You can finish all of these cases immediately after starting this portion of the game.
The story will move on automatically after you
and you won't be able to return so make sure to complete all 5 missable cases and pop the Cleaned achievement before you do so.
After the headset crashes while playing Outlaw v0.85 you will load back into HypnOS on November 26th where you will receive an email from Samantha saying that there are multiple violations occuring. In lieu of giving you specific cases like you had before it's suggested that you go and check out the people who previously gave you trouble.
Coolfest Harassment (11.26.99) Case - "Cool"
Head to the Coolpunk Paradise portal and go to CPColdSnap's "ColdSnap Reviews" page. You will see him complaining about the state of coolpunk and mentioning his fake coolpunks page. Do a search for the word "fake" and you'll find his page called "Fake Coolpunk Watch". Almost everything on here can be reported for harrassment (you've done the Teentopia harrassment case already, you know how this works). After reporting a few of these you'll receive an email giving you the case. I found 8 violations on this page which should be more than enough to close the case. You can also flag the entire page for investigation.
Teentopia Harassment (11.26.99) Case - "Chat"
Go into Teentopia and check out DarkTwilightTiff's "Beyond Twilight" page. Immediately you should see a big banner link asking enforcers to look at some chat logs. Do so and you'll be taken to a page with a bunch of photos of ChitChat logs. You should be able to report the last photo of messages from Corey and the 2nd and 3rd ones from Zane. This again prompts an email with a case as well as some interesting back and forth from the developers about how this is actually counting as violations against Tiff, not Corey or Zane. You can flag her page as well but it seems kinda unfair to do so (and ultimately doesn't help anything, sorry Tiff). The case can be closed after reporting the 3 chat logs.
I also tried to get this case by finding other harrassment violations on Teentopia but couldn't find any. The Zane Sucks Club and its badges are gone even if you didn't report them on November 5th and all of Zane's harrassment towards Corey also seems to have been removed.
If anybody finds any other way to trigger and close this case then please let me know.
Gumshoe Gooper Infringement (11.26.99) Case - "Goop"
Of course these idiots are back at it. Half of the pages in Goodtime Valley are now adorned with copyright infringing pictures of Gumshoe Gooper so report away to your heart's content. I found nearly 20 of these across multiple pages, even after I'd reported as many as I could back on November 5th. I think you only need to find a couple of them to receive the email with the case and close it. There is one kid's drawing on Abby's page that is so poorly drawn that the violation tool doesn't even recognise it as Gumshoe Gooper but everything else can go. They even help you track them all down by using those stupid "I Stand With Gooper" badges. Also while you're here you can flag a bunch of the pages for investigation. Make sure to flag BurnRubber50's page to do him a BIG favour down the line.
Capacash Extralegal Commerce (11.26.99) Case - "Cash"
Sherri is also back trying to sell her psychic abilities. It's pretty likely you encountered her during the earlier Extralegal Commerce case on November 5th but it's possible to have completely skipped her if you solved that case by finding and reporting all the Professor Helper pages instead.
There are a few ways to get into Sherri's consultation page where 3 CapaCash banner violations can be found. Firstly if you paid her 33 hypnocoin on November 5th and still have the email with the link to the page then this will get you there again. If you don't have the email then you can either do a search for "sherriheals" and click the link labelled "SHERRICONSULT.HSP" or go to her "Consult With Sherri Now!" page (linked from her main page) and click the link that says "CLICK HERE TO ACCESS MY SERVICES." This will bring up a password input field and 2 potential passwords are
After reporting the violations you should receive the email with the case which can be closed. Again, you can also flag her entire page to really twist the knife.
Thanks to OllyBongo89 and Pr0jectMichael in the comments for tipping me off about this.
I also tried getting this case by going back to the Professor Helper pages but the CapaCash logos are all gone, regardless of whether or not you reported them all on November 5th, so I'm pretty sure this case has to come through Sherri.
Janitor Malicious Software (11.26.99) Case - "Accountant"
If you head to The Cafe and check out the page "Jas's Software Reviews" you will see their new review complaining that something called Janitor might be illegal. Do a search for "janitor" to find a page with a download link for a game that allegedly can earn you hypnocoin. You can report the link as malicious software which should be enough to receive the case and close it.
You can also download Janitor if you want but it's neither fun nor gives you a significant amount of hypnocoin. If you're wanting to earn more money at this point a much better option is to play the new version of Outlaw which will also earn you
Once you have closed all 5 of these cases the Cleaned achievement should pop. Let me know if this doesn't work and/or you think there might be additional requirements.
