I have most assuredly accomplished a taxing feat ...
(You've changed lodgings. Your new lodgings are Premises at the Bazaar. The opportunities this address provides mean you can keep 4 Opportunity cards in your hand.)
It has been a most taxing feat, pitting myself repeatedly again a veritable sea of assassins, but I have prevailed. I believe I shall take my ease for a time and see what changes that rumors say are on their way.
I just wanted to share my good news with my fellow Fallen Londoners.

Connected: The Masters of the Bazaar has increased to 10-There may be drunken one-night stands!
You awake with an absinthe headache the size of the room your in, a massive dark, damp affair. Your displeasure is audible as you toss onto your side, your back feeling like it has been scratched like the Duchess's veterinarian. As you manage to open your eyes, you see two glowing unblinking orbs staring back at you.
"Last evening was simply magnifcous. Breakfast?"
You manage to make your excuses as you try to sneak home, trying to avoid the prying eyes of the press and bats. As you sneak into your house and into your bath to wash away the queasy feeling, you see a note on your counter. It tells you that Mr. Wines is hosting another party tonight, and Mr. Irons expects to see you there. It appears a score of Special Constables is going to escort you.
Oh dear. OH DEAR.

I have just bought Hesperidean Cider, which makes me the fifth known person to grind for it.
Tiny ASCII cheerleading squad celebrates by shaking their pom-poms:
*\o/* *\o/* *\o/* *\o/* *\o/*
I used the Goat Farmer's Browser Extension to reserve the things listed in this thread and tell me when I'd made it:

And here's the result:

I've been playing FL since April 2010, but I also bought an Ubergoat along the way (yes, the first known Ubergoat; I'll miss it, but it's memoralized in one of my tattoos), and of course didn't settle into serious end-game grinding until fairly recently.
Thanks to An Individual for the Goat Farmer's Browser Extension, everyone here who's done the math to identify the various profitable grinds, and those who helped me decide what I absolutely positively couldn't sell.
If you'd like a sip of Cider, see this post for details. edited by an_ocelot on 8/23/2015

Hello, sometime player, first time poster. Today I encountered An Irresistible Lady at the Feast of the Exceptional Rose, and I'd never wanted anything in this game as badly as to have her for a Companion. If it wasn't for the incomparable kindness of virtual acquaintances, actual strangers, I'd never have been able to get the Masquing necessary, and I want to thank Failbetter for fostering and attracting such a wonderful community. I started February excited that I might pick up some fantasy handsome fellow, and everything was going fine. Then my mother committed suicide on the tenth of this month. I played to escape, and demurred at social interactions and minimized my roleplay while fussing in real life over whether my mother would like this recording of Miserere or that one of Ave Maris Stella and maybe this folky version of Amazing Grace to break up the Latin played at her funeral. In return for my disengagement, I found to my surprise I was offered in-game condolences, personal stories and invitations to talk. In response I played. I sent out teeth and cats. Then I started getting Fate Gifts. When I got my first Encounter card, I scrolled down and saw the Lady's flavor-text and cried. There she was, an echo of somebody I loved, in silhouette. I asked around, traded some of my own small Fate store and got the Masquing I needed, thanks to wonderful people. Now, today, of all days, the Encounter at the Feast card came up again. Now I've got her: "M." Just like it says, I won't ask her name. My mother would have turned sixty today. She was an Irresistible Lady, and if I'd thought to introduce her, she would've loved this game. I wish all of you could've known her. Thank you so, so much.

Almost a year ago, I met the Missionary again. She was neither the pale and wounded shadow bearing the damage of Nadir, nor was she the woman that she used to be before. She was something else entirely - stronger, wiser, bright as a thousand Judgements. She told me of her long journey to strange places and of her great work in rebuilding herself.
At that moment, an epiphany struck me. If she could rise again after falling so far, then so could I.
My journey is a longer one. My scars run deeper and my sins are darker. Yet I keep walking, and I do not walk alone.

One day, there will be a reckoning, but not the one everyone is expecting. Hell has no fury like a sinner Restored.

Congratulations, dov!
Now my turn - it is official. I have the Devil's Luck.
Just a week ago, I got my soul back through One's Public. I then sold my soul for a Fabulous Diamond. What can I say? The diamond had the sun in it. I could not help myself.
I just drew One's Public for the second time today, and... got my soul back A SECOND TIME. This within just a few days of selling my soul, which in turn was within a day of getting it back, and before that, I was probably one of the first to get it back within a month of selling it.
I'd better watch my back now, the RNG is surely out to get me.

So, it turns out that counting the sale value of everything I own, the total worth has just passed 160000 echoes (Cider money).
This, of course, includes quite a few items I have no intention of selling, either because they are hard to come by (e.g. Impossible Theorem), or are useful to me (e.g. Overgoat).
So, the Cider itself will probably still wait for a few more weeks (depending on where I decide to draw the line), but it's within reach! I'll invite everyone for a drink when I have it!

As I've mentioned in another thread, I've recently acquired a certain rare (and very expensive) Sustenance item.

It's tasty, and quite invigorating, but brings with it certain... weird dreams. (oh, and immortality :-))
If anyone wants a sip, please ask me in-game using a beneficial social action, and mention you'd like a sip (see an_ocelot's excellent guide for such actions and how such sips work).
Cheers!

I got my laconic prodigy today! I closed my Salon to start an Orphanage to get it. It was such a money drain and also incredibly dependent on drawing the Tower of Eyes card. I'm now severely set back in my other quest for an overgoat, and wanted to stop several times mid-scheme. But look at those amazing stats now! +10 each to Dangerous, Shadowy and Watchful! It will also be tough to rebuild my notability (dropped from 13 to 9), so here goes the grind again!

Been grinding Making Waves as a Fixer this election, doing flash lay after flash lay. I had a plan. There appeared in my hand An Unsigned Message. I'd recently became a Conjurer, and still only had Notability 3. But this card was annoyingly uncommon, and the payment of a Crooked Cross ever so enticing. What cemented my plan waswhen the election just gave a nice way for me to grind MW. Finally I had enough notability, it was time. Even with all my persuasive boosting gear is was only a 26% chance or so to succeed. I spent a confident smile just in case. Failed. But I had one last chance.

This is more good news for everyone else, but I can confidently say that the Ubergoat is the highest tier of goat. I currently have two and the Overgoat card in my hand, and there are no new breeding options. A little disappointing as I was hoping for some form of Ur-Goat or Caprine Abomination, but at least I can stop wondering.

Not sure this is the thread for that particular feat but...

It sold to Beneath Ceaseless Skies and will be published soon. Can't wait to share it in FL forums, since this is the game (and the imagery) that gave me the nudge.

A little omen, a dream of blood, a magnificent feast, 3 cups of dark drop coffee, 10 tinctures of vigor, and more correspondence plaques than you can shake a stick at means I have finally achieved Courier's Footprint (Scholar of the Correspondence 21)! At long last I'm free! No more constant fear of accidentally reducing my Watchful. No more avoiding things that empty my opportunity hand. I'm going to once again stare into the irrigo light of the Nadir and then I'm getting in my Zubmarine and figuring out where I'm going when I get there.

BEHOLD!

It would cost me EVERYTHING, but I can now afford Cider. However, if I drop my Ubergoat from the equation, this happens.

And if I drop the various articles of clothing I actually wear this happens.

I'm not sure if I'll actually end us sparing any of this stuff, but I'd like to at least save the goat (grinding another would take twice as long as saving the one I already have). The important thing is that the question is no longer "will I ever gather enough resources to afford Cider" but "what will I spare?"

I have just been named Poet Laureate. I have acquired my Ubergoat, Cider, newspaper acclaim, and all treasures. I am recognized for my Paramount Presence, and maintain a relationship of 50+ in every form of Renown, as well as my companionship to the Widow's (224) and Duchess' (665). I have adventured in every foreign land, served as governor, been the darling of the salons, and achieved every accomplishment I know of in the Neath, along with every Exceptional Story. I am experiencing a combination of elation and fear of ennui. Alas, only the Heptagoat eludes me in all my adventures, but I am not sure I could bear such a creature. I am not sure what the future holds for dear Feldon, but I shall keep a stiff upper lip.

Despite sudden connection issues and my father calling half-way through because he needed a hand with his tractor,

Two small bonuses:
1. It's a Goatless Footprint, so the only singed hair around here is mine. 2. I didn't end up using my A Dream of Blood card in making my run, so I was able to use it afterward and finish the job with 0 Wounds.

Recent accomplishments:
Drew A Presumptuous Opportunity three times in one day, acquiring my first Vial of Tears of the Bazaar.
Finally got the Majestic Pleasure Yacht after almost two weeks of grinding. The incidental profits were enough to buy a Devilish Fedora.
Made it far enough in the Fidgeting Writer to gain my first ever Night-Whisper.
Am up to 57 Volumes of Collated Research. This is the least remarkable thing I've done lately but I am absurdly pleased. So many volumes.
Visited Hunter's Keep on my first ever zee-voyage, and am now seeking the Stone-Tentacle Key.

My cider brewing activities have reached a milestone recently. I now have over 100 Coruscating Souls! Of course, I'm still way off from my goal. It's been about year since I last emptied my house of valuables to buy an Ubergoat and I now have 53,251.65 echoes towards that cider. Just 2 and a bit more years at this rate. Unless, that is, the RNG finally acknowledges my various prayers and sacrifices and grants me it's favor. Up until now my Fidgeting Writer runs have been providing at or below average returns.

My cider brewing progress has reached 75%. My current total wealth sits at 120,029.88 echoes. At my current rate, I anticipate reducing myself to a poverty stricken immortal drunk sometime next summer, but even if I don't make it I consider this an achievement. I miss goat grinding when every couple months something actually happened.

I suppose it could count as good fortune, not sure. Partly choice, partly fortune, but all in one week I've been kicked out of Court and the University, received my Foreign Office posting, discovered Flute Street and finally unearthed an Eyeless Skull and therefore entered the Cave of the Nadir. These things all just seemed to come together at the same time.
It has been quite the week. Like having Bonfire Night, Christmas, New Years and Easter all on the same day. London is going to seem a little dull for a while after this.

Got reeeeal lucky recently - I finally decided to finish the "Intimate with Devils" chain, after avoiding it for a year or so, and once I got to the end part - I immidiately lost my soul on the very first 80-90% luck check. Felt reeeal spooopy for an hour or so. But fortunetly it seems RnGesus felt my pain and decided to help me out. So, once my deck of cards refreshed, I drew the "One's Public" card and as usual I took the option that gives you a bag of goodies. AND BAM! You guessed it - I got my quirky little soul back! Hadn't felt this stupidly good/happy/euphoric/insert-possitive-and-feel-goody adjective here for a while!

Well, then. Amoury finally purchased that flask of M_____'s B___d. Grinding for that has been my key ambition for probably at least the past 8 months to a year. I have quite a distaste for lengthy, repetitive grinds. So I think that puts cider or any of the Goats beyond my tolerance threshold. I'm not sure what to work on next, now!
Guess I'll finish stat-capping (very, very close to being done with that as well), rebuild my Notability, and then patiently await the final Ambitions updates and top-tier profession release, however far off either of those may be. I certainly won't be leaving the game, that's for sure.
But in any case, hooray for milestone reached!

Well, in real life - I just came back from the zoo, after delivering a bat my wife and I found. He (she?) had a hole in his right wing and wounds on his neck. We chased the cats away, which was gathering around the bat (cats who really did not want to leave the scene and pass on an opportunity to catch a wounded bat). Had the good fortune to rescue a bat, hold him in a towel on the way to the zoo. Those guys are ADORABLE. That started my weekend in a good mood. I have minutely advanced the falling of my city.

Faced with a recorded range of 2->821 Cryptic Clues on a Bundle which only has a ~1.5% drop rate, I've beaten the odds and discovered a uniquely poor harvest. In the tradition of Victorian Explorers before me, I'm calling this Discovery "The Elderfleur Clue".

this was the best draw I've ever gotten: I drew my last three cards in one click and ended up with A Presumptous Opportunity, An Unsigned Message, and a Dusty Bookshop. Now I've had my "Four Straight Months Without the Bohemians Card" and "Five Mirrors and Clay in a Row" like everyone else, but this time the RNG dun good.

This was about a week ago, but my character reached Renown 50 with Criminals, but this actually qualifies as "good fortune" more so than achievement
I reached Renown 48 without Mood cards, and I needed to trade in 3 more sets of Favours. I already had both "A dusty bookshop" and "A little omen" in my hand, and so I used one. I collected seven more Favours and held onto Criminal cards. My hand at this point was ["A little omen", "A merry little crime", "The Life of Crime", "A Visit", and "The Alleys of London: The Criminals"], with a full 10 cards and 40 actions.
Used the Mood, traded in the original seven Favours, played the four Favour cards, and then began refreshing the deck via Flash Lay. Went through a total of 160 cards, and I only managed to draw the seventh Favour on the last refresh, and so I could trade in a second set of Favours on the same Mood card and reach Renown 50 without a third Mood. edited by Azothi on 2/25/2019

Since a fourth kitty has just moved in with us, I have started on a course for a fourth starveling beast yesterday ... and found it in the very first box. Welcome home, little monster!

The RNG giveth, the RNG taketh away. After waiting most of December for the Unsigned Message, I drew it yesterday, but failed the 31% check to be promoted to Correspondent from Author. Against all expectations, I drew it again today -- and passed at 32%! First try, too, I didn't need the Second Chance. I'll miss my old Appreciation Society, but life goes on...

It's a small thing, but I've only been playing a little while. Today I gratified a whim and bought and freed a Clay Man. My character is a bit of a Leveller by nature... didn't expect the useful reward! To close out the evening, I cashed in some chips and moved to a nice little townhouse. Considering it lacks two days of two weeks since I woke up in a gaol cell, I'm impressed with myself, anyway.

I’ve completed the grind at court and am now a Poet-Laureate. As best I can tell this doesn’t do anything but that’s one less grind for me to worry about.
Fun fact, I had to wait for a Mood to make the last jump from 19 to 20 because I was exactly 1 point short of the 290 persuasive requirement and there was no way for me to get that last point without changing my spouse or my destiny.

Cider brewing progress has reached 90%! My current total wealth sits at 144,124.30 echoes. The current greatest contributing item pile is my 176 Coruscating Souls (55,000 echoes). The second greatest contributing item pile is 2,146,461 Nevercold Brass Slivers (21,464.61 echoes). At my current grind rate I expect to hit 100% around the end of March and to likely make the final purchase mid summer after earning enough to spare my Ubergoat and a few pieces of equipment (if I can wait that long).

So I have been hoarding Searing Enigmas for ages now, because I simply adore the idea of owning an Impossible Theorem. Having finally acquired enough, I started trying my luck with the Truthbreaker Turbine. Even with the best equipment money could buy, my odds were a dismall 31%. I burned through quite a few Sudden Insights in an effort to avoid the Boatman's grasp. Today at lunch, I was looking at the odds and thought to myself "Well, I have a horse head amulet from Sacksmas still...If I fail, it should reset the counter on necessary Insights, and I'll lose the amulet. Worth it."
Click.
....SUCCESS!
I am now the proud owner of my very own Impossible Theorem. It displaced my Overgoat from my mantle, I'm so proud of it. Today, the RNGod smiled, and it was glorious.

I have reached the Heptagoat threshold! If I were to sell everything I own (except my Ubergoat), I could buy 12 Overgoats. Smoosh them into 6 Ubergoats (for a total of 7). And then smoosh all those together to make a Heptagoat. I could. But I won't. I didn't get into this nonsense for some mangy goat. I got into it for Cider. I will taste the garden!

I just got my reservation at the Royal Beth, which means that I now have all of the lodgings you can buy at the Land Agency. Just in time for the Wicket! And I have enough Lacre/Notability to get at least one Remote Address and one 5-card upgrade.
At the moment, I'm most excited that I can stop grinding Honey for a while...

On this fateful day, after one week of frantic stone-turning in the Forgotten Quarter, 20 bottles of the old '68, a serious laudanum addiction, and one trip to the kitty place the RNGesus decided to bestow upon me the fifth Eyeless Skull so that I might exchange them for a Ray-Drenched Cinder.

I shouldn't have risked it. I spent two months waiting for those two trade secrets, and I should have waited another to improve my chances of getting a classic short story. I had a 60% chance, and clicked... And since I'm on the good fortune thread, I can't really build suspense. I obviously succeeded. Now all I have to do it chuck it down a well in a few weeks.

Having drained out my Notability last week to become an Extraordinary Mind (itself a celebratory event), I decided this week to rebuild my Notability. Some polite invitations got my first level quickly, and a few symposia for the cheery arachnophiles picked up my second. Then I picked up a third through 3rd-tier conversions, and at this point thought, eh, why not? I got a fourth, and then though, eh, I've got two days left, why not?
And lo, here we are. With a day to go before Time comes to visit and two free evenings remaining, I have managed to regain all five levels of Notability in a single week!
Many thanks to Professors Logan and Drake. Without their heroic efforts to eat my food, empty my cellars, and teach my orphans how to start fires, it never would've happened.
Edit for the interested: I have 16 BDR and started at Notability 4, so returning to Notability 9 required 1,970 CP of Making Waves. edited by Siankan on 8/17/2017

I could have purchased two 400 echo items, or been 1/12 of the way to an Overgoat.
But instead, I got 77 sorrow-spiders. 896 echoes, all on a bunch of pets that for RP purposes are a newly-born spider council.
Some day, perhaps in a few years, I will make it 777 sorrow-spiders.

Well, this has been a most productive week for me. I acquired a Majestic Pleasure Yacht, gathered both halves of the Screaming Map (or at least, I will have when that Astronomer shows up!), moved into rather excellent premises at the Bazaar, reclaimed my lost soul, reached Shadowy 100 as my final triple-digit attribute, bred a Corresponding Ocelot, founded a Newspaper entirely staffed by my own contacts, and finally resold my soul for an extremely shiny diamond. Oh, and hit 7 Notability, which brings my Prize Tokens up to 31 so that I am now only two N7s off getting a Waxwail Knife. And I think either this or next week is my quarter-year-versary for playing Fallen London, hurrah!
Don't think I'll quite be able to hold a candle to that list in future. Still, plenty of goals left to reach! edited by Darkroot on 4/9/2016

The last of the bits of unidentifiable metal clinked into a box of battered cardboard, one of sixty-four standing at the kerb outside the front door of the Royal Bethlehem Hotel. The manager, shaking his head over stack beyond the lobby, asked how long they would be there. "Only long enough," came the reply from the figure in the unspeakable hat.
Two libertines had to be dissuaded from proclaiming the pile of scrap to be an art installation. A constable was provided with a healthy bribe to ensure bug-hunters and burkes be kept away until the tired gray cart of the Shivering Relicker did appear. Pinnock, the towering rat, guided the ponies pulling the cart next to the pile of boxes. "She sends her regrets," said the rat, "and her thanks." The tall figure bowed and loaded the boxes, carrying one over each shoulder like a stevedore at the Docks.
At last, the cart groaned beneath the weight of the scraps, the wheels shifting slightly as the ponies shivered in their traces. Pinnock nodded and picked up a folded letter, handing it to the figure along with an earthenware jar sealed with melted copper. With a wicker, Pinnock urged the ponies forward, down the street.
As the figure headed back into the hotel, the manager looked curiously at the jar. "Sun and eye?" he asked.
"And here it is," smiled Crater, patting the jar. "I look forward to studying its echoes."
A gasp. "You're not going to actually open that, are you?"
"Of course not. But sound does carry and I shall apply a range to determine the structure of what lies within."
The manager chuckled as the jar was carried to the stairs with purpose. "Correspondents," he remarked. "Always looking for words to explain it all."

Perhaps more a celebration of the culmination of a lot of work than of good fortune, but this weekend I managed to acquire a Rumourmaster's Network to go with my Breath of the Void and Scrap of Veils-Velvet - all paid for with Scrap earned the post-nerf hard way!
Also increased Connected: Criminals to 100, which seems to have taken an inordinately long time...

I have all four of the top-tier Relicker items, bought with post-nerf Scrap.
I'd like to thank my parents for imbuing me with the necessary work ethic and tenacity to accomplish this... uh... "feat". And I'd like to use my scrap of Veils-Velvet to smother the RNG, which was no help at all.

Not really fortune, but counterpoint to my idiocy in trading in Notability just before Hallowmass: managed to make it back up from 0 to 11 in 5 days and then have the Huffam boost on top of that. Less painful than I expected!

Having finally decided to put my nose to the proverbial (and only occasionally painful) grindstone , and start doing something with my PoSI status, I've managed to achieve the following since Hallowmas: two 4 card lodgings, which i than upgraded to 5 card lodgings at sackmas, entry into the Nadir, my first capped stat (watchful) and yesterday I finally became the extraordinary mind i've always yearned to be. Not a bad way to cap 3 months of concentration. That accomplished, I now look forward to going and spending some time with the bohemians and the devils - you know, to unwind.

I recently decided that Kasha Cairn would be better off with a nicer ship, so - against my better judgement - I decided to give up the old Tramp Steamer and go for the Majestic Pleasure Yacht. I used my pull with the Masters to get a seat at the game table, stocked up a bit on a few of the items I didn't quite have enough of, and went to play.
And won, on the first game. What. edited by Soran on 8/3/2015

Hah! Soran finally has an Impossible Theorem!

I mean, sure, they might have gotten slightly blown up a couple of times in the process, and had to chug a few gallons of drugs while being pieced back together by Zero and Cairn so they could stumble home (at the top of a Bazaar Spire-Emporium) to sleep it off, but that's just the price of SCIENCE.
Plus now this means I can stop grinding up those Uncanny Incunabula and start using them the way they were meant to; as lovely gifts for Mr. Pages. 
Oh, and I guess Zero has a Zubmarine now. I think he mostly built it because he thought it would be funny.

Once, I had capped stats, and I was quite proud of the slow, wandering path I'd taken to them. The next day, before posting of my small but joyous achievement, I took the candle of St. Arthur for my own. Goodbye capped stats, see you in twenty levels or so... I have finally clawed my way back to capped stats after two of them were Eaten in service to a Candle... I write this as soon as I have done so, to ensure that my victory is not snatched from me again.

I am one more point of Notability away from being a Paramount Presence, and two points away from being a/the Poet Laureate. I suppose I must someday get my Scholar of the Correspondence rating up to snuff, but otherwise I think the next thing to do is finally cash in my candles for cider. I've been holding off because my character has tried to keep dying to a bare minimum and has never once lost his soul, and cider just hasn't seemed like his bag.

Wow, That’s really impressive Individual! I’m pretty jazzed myself- Friday night I FINALLY got my mood card. Which meant that, this morning, after gathering the materials, raiding the couch cushions and my laundry pockets to fund fate purchases, and petting my Ubergoat, I finally did it- I reached Scholar of the Correspondence 21- Courier’s Footprint! What really makes me happy about this is I managed it without being an Extraordinary Mind- I’m actually a shadowy specialization primarily. The mood added a particular level of drama, as last minute internet issues and miscalculating the amount of Aeolean Screams almost put the kibosh on the whole project. This is really the last BIG grind I was waiting to finish. The connections are fine, but AFAIK Criminals because its broad cap is 7*renown the highest possible grindable level is currently 44 (200+54 from items + 15 from Invisible Eminence 269, 270 is 45 renown). I imagine I will hit a similar barrier with Renown- The Docks, Rubberies, and Tomb-Colonies eventually. I could theoretically get beyond this with a mood card. But given there's absolutely no way to grind favors reliably within the timeframe of an hour, I'd be limited to one per mood card, which is a pretty long, painful process.
Which is a shame, because I had once been at the title cap for connections before the rework, and I hope to someday to be able reach that level again. For now, that just leaves hopping on the Cider train and waiting for more scraps. I still need 3/4 3200 scrap items. I should also probably go to jail to meet a certain someone. But I’ve slain my most coveted end-game grind dragon. The RNG has finally granted me victory. edited by friendshipranger on 12/18/2016

After winning my Majestic Pleasure Yacht a little over a week ago, I now have finally earned enough to add another "optional" luxury transportation: I have finally purchased a Respectable Landau! Edit: And the next day, I got another (as in 2) Ratwork Watch from robbing the Drunken Rat, so that's an additional 230 echoes also! (And considering the costs to get those bribes and hidden bodies books to offset the grind time for the transportation items above, it's nice to be so quickly reimbursed and be back in profit!) edited by the truthseeker on 11/2/2015

My main character is on the Seeking Road. After two weeks of grinding, I finally accumulated 924 Mourning Candles, about 2000 Appalling Secrets, and a Rare Mood card. The Rare Mood, and timing my actions around Time the Healer's arrival, allowed me to gain 5 levels of SMEN in one fell swoop -- the Candles sent up a victorious blaze (see that charred block of buildings near Spite?), half the Secrets went down deliciously (unfortunately the other half were just a sodden waste of wine), I used Marsh-Mired right before and right after Time the Healer reset, and Grieved. To top it off, I rode out the Rare Mood at the University and acquired some Searing Enigmas -- seven of them, in fact.
All in all, it paid off. I'm beyond thankful that all those Candles succeeded -- that was my last chance to see the storylet text for myself before the challenge exceeded my Watchful ability. Although it would've been a magnificent sacrifice worthy of the Seeking Road if they hadn't. I'm now at SMEN level 17; all challenges are past my Watchful ability, so I'll have to just bide my time to raise SMEN with Marsh-Mired now. edited by Vega on 8/14/2018

Despite a few mistakes with Pails of Snow early on, I still gained enough Taste of Lacre to upgrade two 5-card lodgings and get a Remote Address. Hooray!
Unfortunately I was too late to get a Fur Robe (having exclusively gotten Pails of Snow) but it's still a satisfying Neathmas.

Even without the option to grind more confessions, the last two weeks were great and I'm not talking about Hallowmas only! Skinny got his soul back and sold it for the second fabulous diamonds and I'm done with M's Blood grind after loosing them (diamonds and Blood) because of a well! Got 77 lovely mogs, but also two classy ones!
Aaand my alt, Clark, after never loosing his soul, on the first Visitors card he got a value of 200 (eclectic bundle)! I remember that Skinny got it back after hundreds of One's Public, many Zee voyages, hundreds Noman and Visitors cards before setting the course for N!
Time to start the Noman's prep!

Not recent, but the time where I ground up to gamble Mr Apples for his Majestic Pleasure-Yacht was my first major grind. When I finally had all the required items stockpiled, I went and clicked the button, fully expecting to have to grind my way back up again a handful of times in the future... and got the Yacht on my first try.

I probably should've waited until I had 7 Lens too, but I was feeling whimsical today. Same here, yesterday. I didn't upgrade multiple items, however: each time I failed, I started again from the beginning. Curiously, I kept failing at the Royal Beth. In a day and a half of soul-crushing grinding, only three times did I actually succeed there; once I exchanged the Room Number for a Night-Whisper (something for the Urchins...), once I failed and once I succeeded. Then came my very first attempt with the Black Lens, which was successful, as I really hoped it would (50/50 chances), so I guess you could call that good fortune. As dispiriting as failure after failure was, it made success all the sweeter when it finally came. It was an incredible feeling. Nice, I kept reading advice that it helps one mentally to gather a stash before attempting the next tier for Fidgeting. I wanted the Soul soon for certain exceptional story purposes, so after gathering 7 Room Numbers, I thought that was enough stashing and I just went all the way on a whim, win or lose. Turned out to be a win at the very end, like yourself! Despite the many failures you had, good job at the end! 
That was smart of you to get the Night-Whisper, the day of the pail gathering shall commence in due time. It'll be Fallen London's equivalent of Black Friday for urchins, since Londoners can be at the ready with the Urchin card in hand the moment snow hits! Assuming it is the same last year as is reported, we'll see...
As for fortune for me today, I failed a 98% challenge. How is that good fortune one may wonder? Well, I was investigating A Philosophical Commission, side content for the Wars of Illusion, and I wanted to draw a satirical cartoon. I remembered the failure text and result is not recorded in the wiki. It was quite a long shot, but with capped Persuasive, I lowered my Persuasive with all the equipment I had (including my talkative rat), which left it at 98% success. I went for it and I failed, so now the wiki can be updated in time with that result! I don't know change point details, but the rest can be filled in. I would have been fine either way, pass or fail, but failure has that added bonus of adding new content to the wiki entry, so that was crazy to see I pulled it off. 
Edit: Added my journal entry link to the result for the curious! Link: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Ridagoth?fromEchoId=7259327 edited by Ridagoth on 12/13/2015

just used a Salon to boost Making Waves and got exactly what I needed to increase my Notability. Zero change points wasted. I am unreasonably stoked for such a minor thing. edited by PSGarak on 2/4/2018

Err... So today I got 2 Eyeless skulls and a Brass Ring by way of 20 actions spent searching for curios in the Forgotten Quarter, and I also got one more eyeless skull and brass ring using 30 actions yesterday. I also just drew the Skin of the Bazaar opportunity card in Bazaar Sidestreet, it being probably the 40th card or so I've ever drawn in that location. Heh
I also drew a mood card the other day. Time to get my SoC up to 10 and then pop a mood card and head into the Nadir
(mood card + skin of the bazaar + two skull-cards are taking up all my opportunity card slots, but who cares. I don't really have many rare cards I absolutely would wish to go for at the moment anyways) edited by Cantankerous Captain on 10/18/2016

So I decided to get Notability 1, just for the kicks. I got the Amanuensis card in hand, but only 7 Making Waves (and I needed 15). I decided to write a gothic romance in Court to pass the time (since I would scream if I did ONE MORE CAROUSEL OF AFFAIR OF THE BOX), wrote one in two days, got an awful lot of scandal. Then came A Polite Invitation, and my scandal reached 8 short afterwards (but not before I could get my MW to 11). I went to the tomb-colonies, got another tomb-lion, reached MW 12 when I got back and, before I even considered spamming people with social actions to the remaining 3 MW, I flipped my deck and the card of God Editors was the first to fall on my hands.
Gothic Romance to pass the card's challenge for free? Checked. One action spent. Tons of Collated Research that I collected just because what is a Professor without Collated Research? Check. Another action spent in the Bazaar Sidestreets.
I got the membership, and then I only needed MW 11 to Notability 1. A third action spent and boom! I have Notability without even trying, in a chain of random actions that all came together to make me notable in 3 actions. I love those small convergences when they happen.

By dint of careful card juggling, some good fortune, and a measure of manoeuvring, I successfully went from my training profession last week to a Tier 2 profession (Author) this week for my professional reward.
Which is good, because I need the Stolen Kisses.

There is a woman on the other side of a mirror. She begged me to stop a quest, to not waste any more on the mad journey. She never realized that I had reached the end already. I knocked on the gate. I entered each key, and- one by one- I snapped each one off in a different lock. the door did not open. I did not expect it to, not in this dark fairy-land. There are truths that cannot be reached on the wrong side of a mirror.
It was the fate of the keys that mattered.
I have no more homes, now. No more orphanages, either. Well, that is... not the complete truth. I own premises at the bazaar- a new key, bought with new money. I have even upgraded them.
Someday, I will add more to the collection- abet not many more. Today is not that day. I am free of a greivous weight. Not the name, even in the pits of hunger that is as light as a feather. No, the torment of being an owner of property I do not use. I am free. No more shall the library darken my doors. No more shall I have to smile and nod in the gambling dens.

The RNG has blessed me of late. In addition to running into “A Sign?” quite frequently on expeditions I finally finished The Last Constable storyline. Didn’t tamper with the tankards and a The Cheery Man drank the poison in the first round. Then, in the same day, made my first attempt at getting A Dark Carapaced Crustacean by feeding a Malevolent Monkey a pail of so-called-snow and succeeded at that on the first try as well.

The RNG has been kind with my card flipping. I have a very full deck with all lodgings acquired, and two slots taken up my mood cards. Yet, I managed to draw the salt weasel card within hours of camping in Ladybones. Just a week or so later, I drew the Below the Neath card and got a portfolio of souls from a rare success. (Yes I know I can make one in the Side Streets, but I don't really see the point of doing so for my collection.) This is somehow making me ridiculously happy because there are next to no other regular sources of portfolios of souls.

You go a mile from shore, well beyond the range of the Department of Menace Eradication's bounties. This is sacrament, not to be sullied. You cast the bait over the side - bait that costs significant influence to procure in such quantities - and watch the zee turn burgundy. You wait. A light blooms in the depths. It grows like a climbing sun. The waters bulge, raising you aloft. Steam rises from the waves.
The battle is brutal and quick, thank heaven. If you hadn't killed it in the first moment, it would have devoured you in the second. The midnight feast back at your lodgings is a sounder test of your resilience; like eating rubber flavoured with ink. The thing's flesh is peligin, the colour of the deep Zee, and when you are finished, so are your eyes. Your Perspicacious Lurcher looks into them, whines, and flees. You never see it again.
So be it. You have a new companion now. You slide your hand along its white haft, feeling the grain of the bone. It shivers for you, eager.
OH MY TRUE CALLING

I hit 200 Persuasive (due to a prolonged affair at the House of Chimes with an alt. Implications: unpleasant; I shall rationalise it RP-wise by saying that we merely spoke to each other in quite a cordial, business-like fashion for a very long time. Which did wonders for my confidence. Yes.)!
And then I stupidly clicked on the Nadir while I had 0 undrawn cards in my deck, and while I was in the midst of an RP. Am now waiting. Painfully. Sorry Andrew. =/ edited by Sestina Valdis on 11/10/2015 edited by Sestina Valdis on 11/10/2015

I finished the Heart's Desire Ambition storylet on Sestina! Oddly enough, I am pleased not so much because I have completed the story (or the parts that have been written so far), but rather because I got rid of the Heart's Desire option that was hanging around everywhere...

My character got from Scholar of the Correspondence 16 to 18 in one fell swoop on Monday, and without dying. I'm very pleased! Even if now the overgoat grind continues, in advance of whenever it's time to try for SotC 19.

I have, after many years of pursuit, reached the current end of the Ambition: Nemesis storyline, and I must say, one of the bits of writing toward the end was so elegant that it gave me chills.

On my very first trip to the Nadir, I have gotten myself a Frost-Moth, both the Strange-Shore Suit and Frock, an Uncanny Incunabulum and a Nodule of Pulsating Amber. Not bad, I believe - yet definitely evened out by my second trip a day afterwards, when I got a bit of Watchful, Walking the Fallen Cities, Magnanimous and NOTHING else. Of course, this comes from deciding not to use the Wiki and try and find out all card results by myself ...

What a great 24 hours - I managed to both get my Bifurcated Owl, and win my first Cryptobotanical Rosette (rather unexpectedly, since I was mostly challenged by others, apart from this last victory). Now, to take a deep breath and continue towards the Ubergoat. I have to say that Rosette is rather ugly, though - I suspect it will only last a couple of days on my mantelpiece, then to be clawed down again by the Owl. edited by Arandia on 1/25/2017

My dear companion Inigo Montoya approached me requesting to take on a job that was almost certain to be the end of him. It was a 100% chance of success, but the option came with the warning that even as a success, it was probably a suicide mission. After struggling to make a decision for over 36 hours, I finally let him go because he was the one asking despite knowing well what he was signing up for. He has come back to me, not just alive and well, but in glory! (His name is more apt than I imagined when I first gave it to him.)

The RNG was very good to me recently: went to the Cave of the Nadir, got the Irrigo Goggles and then *two* End of Battles. That was my entire trip--3 straight successes, and one of the few new items I could get, for 8 Irrigo. I'll take that!
And then, after at least two weeks of drawing cards only in Ladybones Road, I got a salt-weasel!
I may be paying for my run of good luck now with my inability to draw the Bohemians card so I can change my profession to journalist. I've drawn every other Faction card at least once, some 3-4 times. But then all hail the mighty RNG. All hail. All hail.

I've not been playing for very long, but I think I've already peaked. At present I'm looking for the Tomb of the Seven in the Forgotten Quarter, and in the span of four actions "A sign?" came up three times. You know, the option that gives 4 x progress at no cost. Makes up for the two occasions that I've had to abandon expeditions only one point away from success. edited by Anchovies on 4/3/2017

Grinding in the Forgotten Quarter, and the RNG looked favorably upon me! Two eyeless skulls, one immediately after the other, and a third only a couple hours later! At 416 used actions for this grind it currently puts me at 1.83EPA. That'll drop as soon as I keep grinding, but that's how these things go. I'll pour one out for the RNG.
Now back to it!

It's not necessarily fortune, but I've hit 200 in my first stat (Watchful), with Dangerous and Persuasive both at 196. I don't have *quite* enough Chess mastery yet, though. About half way there and a fourth of the way to maxing the Boatman.

Went to The Nadir on my alt, got Old Bones twice and End of Battles with the rare success (since that alt made the decision to tell Clathermont about his wife last feast). Easy Whirring Contraption.
Less lucky, accidentally burned 8 points of Notability to boost my Watchful unnecessarily and I still haven't drawn Amanuensis on my alt all day

Congrats to all! I'm a newly minted PoSI! I've been progressing along the Dueling the Black Ribbon and have a three-card lodging. I also was lucky enough to collect an absolute killer two-card combo: the one you get with Seeking the Meaning of the Flint Idol 4, which reduces all your wounds...and a Mood card.
Hit the Mood card for Dangerous, racked up the necessary Duel with Feducci to 90% chance of success, hit the Flint Idol card, and...BAM.
I got ridiculously lucky but I'm a bit pleased with myself nonetheless.

It required a LOT of Waves-intensive Heists; not one, but TWO Salons during the same week in order to amass 23 Waves for my 5th point of Notabilty by Saturday, having climbed up from 3 during the same week, and a Shadowy check with a 35% chance of victory. Yeah, it would only have been 50% if I were fully prepared, but I decided it would be faster to wait for the card multiple times and hope for the best.
I decided to use a Hastily Scrawled Warning Note, raising my true chances to 50% or a little better. To my suprise, I became a Midnighter on my first try - didn't even need the Advantage, although I still considered it well spent.
The RNG smiled warmly upon me today, indeed.

Upon reading about how people struggled to attain the Skin of the Bazaar card I decided to hunker down in the Streets and try to draw it myself. Fully prepared to wait out the weeks and months for it.

This was my first winter in the Neath, but I think I cleaned up nicely at the Wicket... I upgraded all three of my four-card lodgings, got a remote address, and reported to the Duchess for a handsome reward. Not bad at all, considering I basically threw away two pails of lacre before I figured out how Taste worked.

Not all that impressive, but i got my 16th vial of lacre this week! in addition, I have the airag for #17 and #18 ready to upcraft, (or the lacre, depending on how my luck goes. Have the buckets for another two vials that way.) just need to draw the oppurtunity cards. I'm also an owner of an overgoat, but that's not exactly a huge deal anymore. I mean, I only got it because it would make Tear-grinding easier.

By dint of court service, flogging off a pile of jewels and moon-pearls, and my collection of First City Coins (I'm a Seeker, what do I need with an ambition?), I have acquired a Handsome Townhouse.
POSI awaits.
edit. And now achieved. Interesting to see that an Exceptional Friend can make it in a mere six weeks - somehow I had the impression it would take a lot longer than that.

I had two Mood cards in my hand and frankly, they were cluttering my deck, given that I had no immediate need of them. So I decided to abandon Author for Correspondent (Watchful task) and take my 49 Bohemian Renown to 50 (Persuasive task). So I did just that, and got lucky with my attempts. Less than twelve hours later, I walked into a Dusty Bookshop again. Still haven't chosen what to do with it - unless another major grind is on the way, maybe I will take The Great Game to 50 too. edited by Jolanda Swan on 9/22/2019

Well, it is far behind the staggering achievements some of you are talking about, but I recently achieved two pleasant accomplishments: 1) I became an author before becoming a POSI, one of the little extra goals I'd set myself. 2) I just liberated my aunt from the Brass Embassy! Yay for the family reunion! I felt so disappointed with myself when I initially failed to talk the devils out of dragging her away, but I have finally reclaimed her. What to *do* with her now will be another question!
I'm also getting closer to my other meta-goal, to hit natural 100 on all qualities before becoming a POSI. Once I got Shadowy past 80, that quality suddenly seemed to become a lot easier to increase, so the goal feels within reach now.

I wanted an Impossible Theorem. So I equipped myself with a cider, five amulets, 47 Sudden Insights, a Mood Card and 67 Enigmas. Went in with two full candles. Got it on first try. Happy for that, though all my supplies felt a bit silly afterwards.

I have a classic short story! As my unmodified persuasive was only 104 and I didn't realise how useful case notes were until the election was over, it was quite hard (even if that's mostly my fault). Also, the RNG has been cruel to me with short stories, and every other one I've written failed at the level I pitched it. So I really feel proud of this! Next goal, bazaar lodgings. 44 bazaar permits down and 6 to go!

Since my against-all-odds crazy failure, I just entered new territory for the Theosophistical card content that is not recorded in the wiki at all. I am feeling very excited to make arrangements to introduce new card content on the wiki (instead of just failure text for another card, which is amusing too) for this easily skippable content (since it's all cards, some location based and you need qualities in a certain range). I suppose I'll leave what happened and an analysis of it as a spoiler in case. This really made my day, and I wanted to share my discovery. 
[spoiler]My Embroiled in the Wars of Illusion is 10, and I do not have a connection to Glass or Shroud yet. My Seeking was 9 and the wiki records A Theosophistical Occasion as the last card to make an appearance at Seeking 9. That will be updated itself in time because it needs exactly 9 instead a minimum of 9 to see it. While drawing cards at Mahogany Hall, I drew a card called A Theosophistical Decision. Like Occasion, it needs Wars at 10-20, and Seeking exactly at 9. At standard frequency, it came as a shock and was quite surprising to see since the wiki makes no mention of this. After unlocking the card, I noticed something very similar at the wikidot, although there is a lot of dated information about this as a whole (such as the naming convention, only Debate onwards is Mahogany Hall, stat challenges changed, etc.), thus I didn't reference it and focused on the wiki instead, since that is actively updated at this time. I am impressed there is some info the wikidot has that the wiki doesn't have and vice-versa. Anyway, I chose the 'there's something to it' option on the Decision card and it shot my Seeking to 12, so I don't think the next card, if there is a next card, will be recorded on either wiki (the wikidot has something at seeking 10, which may make sense for progression for the other option I skipped, that 'it's a confidence trick', which I plan to do later as I reset my seeking to revisit all of this!). Anyway, this is awesome and was a pleasure to experience. I have no idea how much more of this is left, but it's great to see even more content for this![/spoiler]

Two years ago, around this time, I received an email that started a lovely journey! Here I am, after 104 TtH visits on my second FL anniversary!

Only few weeks ago I realized that I missed a Professional Reward and was no surprise; it was during the week I underwent a surgery. Otherwise there should have been 26 Secrets, not 25 and 3 Rewards! But I am proud that I haven't used a single one! Onward to the 39th! edited by Skinnyman on 2/28/2018

Same as Louffles! Opened my 92 packages and managed to get some SotC and the rest to 10 was achieved with a bit of writing. In the meantime I did some conversions and reached MW 32 to get Nota 10 just before:

EDIT: Renown: Rubbery Men has increased to 40 - SSOSSOFFOOROSSTH! 
EDIT #2: Let's edit this again, shall we? Renown: The Docks has increased to 40 - Known in the distant corners of the Unterzee! Yay, now for 7 more and a fast trip on the Zee!

Was so busy and tired that I didn't even notice this: "Connected: Urchins has increased to 323 - One of Us!"! I used the conflict cards, faction card and Arson and Avarice from An Implausible Penance. The last wasn't the most profitable way to increase my connections, but I really love these guys!  I'll continue to increase my standing, but no more Criminal Favours; need to pick my way of spending them now!

It's been a while, but I didn't want to brag with few small things so I waited for: This was my first festival which turned out to be very nice and, even with all "weird" conversions, after a lot of grind got all the items and a destiny! Exceeded level 35 (632 CP) of Someone is Coming. At first I just wanted 600 CP to rob a rat, but I asked myself why not go for level 77! Finished my first 3 ES (and a whole season) and waiting for my first trade-in. Headed back to Mutton Island to increase my Stormy-Eyed to level 19 for RP reasons and headed back to London and... ...from the 10 cards one of them was a Polite Invitation. After the Rubbery conversion I ended up with Renown 3 or 4, but I'm few AP from getting the level 25 item (only needed one more Favour to get it)! My inventory value exceeded 15k E w/o any money grind; from a quick math, I can sell stuff worth of 7-8k E which is pretty nice (very shinny diamonds aren't for sell!). Closer to the goat than I thought!
Hope I'll come back soon with Watchful 200 (18 more levels needed) and a nice goat!

Yay! After exchanging some boxed cats with Saklad, his 12th box yielded a Midnight Matriarch! Was pretty lucky and I wonder if this 18th box I just sent him got him one as well.  EDIT: I have days, weeks sometimes, w/o drawing that cat card. Saklad was away and couldn't send him the pack I had. 5th card after sending it, I got the card again! 19th lucky one, Saklad?

Congratulations, Professor! I also do enjoy when multiple, total random, events get you such a desired result! Now, after 3 fails, I got my Yacht!!! Not really good fortune, but, after the first two failures, I was preparing myself for 5+. I got my honey from the Court for the extra MW and, even if some points are lost, I got my Notability to 7 after calling Amanuensis from my lodgings. I was also lucky to get the An Unsigned Message card which I kept (for the Gift) so I can use it for better odds. I managed to succeed and got my second Surprise Package. I'll be holding onto these until I get involved into Soul Trade and start selling my soul for very shinny diamonds!

It's a good day, apparently!
I've wanted Stormy-Eyed since I started playing the game. Given the way I typically play -- just a couple times a day, cleaning out the action counters, and plenty of time out at sea -- I turn over a lot fewer opportunity cards than it seems like a lot of you do.
Just after writing the above post, I got the Stormy-Eyed card. Yay!

If I may: When one acquires an Overgoat, one is Overgoated. As the word goat comes from the Old English "gat" for female goat, to be Overgotten, Overgot or any other dirivitive of the verb "to get"(or "to beget" from the Old Norse) would likely anger the Overgoat, which is not recommended. However, to Overgloat, which is to brag of one's Overgoat, is perfectly acceptable.

Well, it was less a stroke of good fortune rather than mere perseverance, but I have acquired, save for the Overgoat, every piece of end-game gear that can be acquired from the bazaar.
Unless, of course, more has been added today.
Now for the Overgoat.
-- News in the Neath: Noted citizen of Fallen London, Abraham Bounty, has acquired six hundred and sixty six souls. Additionally rumour has it that the lion's share of those souls was from a theft of The Brass Embasy itself. We are quite certain that this portents nothing ominous for him.

I got a Tear of the Bazaar from the Gallery of Serpent, where my Rival's Progress never got beyond level 2!
Of course my previous try had my Rival got to 9 out of 9 moves so this is more of a karmic rebalance.
Also I drew a rare card three times in a week! The useless A Voice From A Well card, of course. But it is still rare. edited by Estelle Knoht on 1/20/2015

I've had about 20 card visits from Slowcake's Amanuensis this Hallowmas, which has meant that I have been able to get many more confessions than otherwise. A very friendly RNG over the last two weeks, so much so that I kept checking whether the card frequency had been changed. edited by colinsapherson on 11/25/2016

Let's all just take a moment to appreciate that sometimes the RNG giveth, as well as takething away.

It's not a gallopingly difficult accomplishment, but Sir Fred just hit 200/200/200/200, which I'm rather chuffed about. Also, his Respectable/Dreaded/Bizarre is now 5/1/5, which I think is a fairly accurate representation of me in real life - an amiably harmless weirdo.

I did it! With a mood card and the new boost to Shadowy from the updated transports/home-comforts, I was *just* able to reach Renown: Criminals 50- *They Say It Was You Who Stole The Sun*! (I had to spend a *little* fate to get re-rolls for the deck because I was short a few favors at the end, but that's not cheating because I say so.)

I am very pleased. This was the renown 50 title I was most fiending for, (except perhaps The Great Game 50: You Are The Pawn That Reached D8) so it was well worth burning a mood card. edited by friendshipranger on 6/14/2017

My youngest non-POSI alt had some good fortune today. After grinding the last of the Muscaria Brandy for their first four card lodgings, a guest room at the Brass Embassy, they drew the Hell card and A devil's taken a shine to you (the card to become Intimate of Devils the last thing they needed) in the same hand. They got their lodgings and the next card they got meant that they are no longer Intimate of Devils. As I really didn't want them to have all those cards and risk losing their soul I am quite happy about how things worked out.

I entered the Mind, returned with a Thunderbolt, and in the first hand I drew after exiting found the Third who walks beside you and shortly after the WtTS autofire card. So I am once again on the path to the Mind.
I know it will take a long time to get there but after previous visits I have waited weeks to get the Third who walks card to show up so I am feeling very fortunate.

I collected the 49 Searing Enigmas it takes to pursue an Impossible Theorem about a month ago, and have fretted over when to actually make an attempt to capture one since then. I finally decided to wait until after Hallowmas concluded, so I didn't end up on a slow boat in the middle of a holiday and could build up a small buffer of Enigmas. Turns out all my worrying was for nothing -- I nabbed it on the first try with only a 30% chance of success. I didn't even need the second chance I burned on it.

A relatively tame event compared to some, but I just had some fun with the Route to the Cave of the Nadir on accident while a humble nonPOSI with a base Watchful of 84.
I'd misclicked while mousing over the requirements for the expedition to find the Cave (the 60 Supply and a Skull one) and launched an attempt with exactly 60 supplies. Wincing, I went ahead and decided to plug through and hope I either lucked out or hit Rival's Progress 10 before wasting too many supplies. By Progress 15, February was at 6; by Progress 32, she was at 9. I made it to the end without her ever getting that final point and, thanks to a few Signs, 15 supplies miraculously left over.
I think I've burnt through my luck in teh Forgotten Quarter for a while and will come back to collecting skulls for a cinder some other day...

A while ago, I reached the point in the Affair of the Box that required me to start collecting boxes of intrigue and gave me the Empire's Kingmaker quality. I saw an opportunity--for what could be more poetic that to be an Empire's Kingmaker at level 77? I decided to grind for the quality before progressing with the story.
And lo and behold, I did it! ...only to find out that the next step of the Affair of the Box requires me to perform the same circuit again. Now I can only progress the story through the faction conflict opportunity cards that give boxes of intrigue without any Empire's Kingmaker (and there are fewer of those since the favors/reknown system was implemented for the Urchins) if I don't want to mess up my Number. Grrr.
In the meantime, though, I successfully crafted a Classic Short Story! Needless to say, it makes my mantle look quite stunning.

My fortune seems small when compared to others, but on the same day,
1). My St. John's Lily finally grew enough to start entering contests. 2). I finally gained membership to the Parthenaeum (my first POSI item!) 3). I got my 2nd point of Notability (just before Time, the Healer, arrived to wipe away all those Making Waves) 4). I finally became an Author (also just before Time, the Healer, arrived)
Special thanks to the RNG for letting me draw the Tower of Sparows card and giving me the maximum amount of making waves from Bringing the Celebration home with my last night on the town, and
Special thanks to Sally Scribbles for accepting a Private Supper from me with my last free evening of the week and pushing me over the edge to get that last point of Making Waves.

So I decided to give the Fidgeting Writer storyline a go, finally. Made up 10 sense of Deja Vu, just to get a feel for the progression. Those 10 Senses of Deja Vu slowly got whittled down until I had a single black lens. And now I have a coruscating soul! Yay! Now I don't need to do that storyline again - double yay!

Wow, 3200! How in the world do you get so many? I'm at like 29, and gambling seems so random that I actually do better just getting the ones from my various safe-houses. It's actually not that difficult to get thousands of scraps, if you're patient:
- 1. Never gamble for scraps with the relickers.
- 2. Get all lodgings (including the The Listing Tower via K&C) - always play the option which gives scraps (1-4 scraps, depends on the lodgings). Even the actions which give just 1 scrap add up over months of play
- 3. Get a Sulky Bat - when its card comes up play the option which has a 50% chance of giving 3 scraps.
- 4. Draw cards in the Flit, and call in favours with the Urchins when the card comes up (gives 20 scraps). Try to keep Urchins connections up for this (use the Rookery Password when it drops below 19).
Other than that, just forget about scraps and play normally. You'll find that in a few months you'll have collected thousands of the things.

This is kind of a silly one, but something I enjoyed immensely. So you can get a bitter parting with the artist model, and I did this because I didn't want her cards. The bitter parting quality says she will not forget what happened between you. But then later after tanking my stats on oblivion, I saw her in the shuttered palace. I dunno, it was a little odd, so I said hi... and gained seduction: artists model 1. Haha, and the best part is that quality says you may have forgotten her, but how dare she forget you XD. Its stat based, starting her seduction storyline so you can start it even after getting a bitter parting, and that is amazing to me.
She will never forget!!! *later* She forgot :v
I like to imagine she's a kindred spirit, an irribro if you will (haha apologies for the pun). I count gaining this token bit of relationship of mutual forgetfulness a great success and it make me very happy.

The other day I got Notability 6 on a 3% challenge, having embraced the philosophy of playing the Amanuensis every time I encounter him. This wasn't particularly good fortune as I was sated with my new job, and not interested in the horrifying grind.
However! Today, I reached Shadowy 200 after many days of loitering the streets and tanking my Society and MW. It was then that I encountered the Amanuensis with another 3% chance, but failed. Two cards later, I drew him again. MW 2, BDR 17, and now I have Notability 7. How ridiculous.
EDIT: Notability 8 on an 8% chance. I'm so sorry, I really don't mean to steal people's luck. edited by Cocytus on 12/19/2013

When things are put into a concunction in a way never seen before, yes, that is when we can truly glimpse the mechanics of the universe! The results of logic - of "natural progression?" Boring! an "expected result?" Dull! An "obvious next step?" Pfui! Where's the fun in that? We want to see the unexpected! The strange and terrible! A dream merely soothes - but our nightmares make us run! Behold! I have gained an Impossible Theorem! Also reached "Courier's Footprint."

After finally drawing A Little Omen, I cashed in my Notability 12 to boost my Watchful up to 212, became Prenaturally Intent, rode my Overgoat to the University (who am I kidding, I walked next to the Goat, I'm not insane), and with my mighty total of Watchful 300 spent all of my hoarded Correspondence Plaques.
I am now Scholar of the Correspondence 21: Courier's Footprint. I'm also at Wounds 7 (my hair caught fire so many times), so if anyone would be so kind as to stop by with soup and bandages, I would be much obliged.
-- Mr. Mercutio Immortal. Rich. Only moderately insane.
Want a taste of immortality? Reach out to me in-game to ask for a sip of Hesperidean Cider. Please follow Ocelot's guide to asking here.
New to our dark city? Send me a message in-game and I will respond when I can with a welcome gift!
I welcome most social actions, so feel free to send them to me. Just please don't ask me to Loiter Suspiciously or to help with the Affluent Photographer. I have disavowed all knowledge of her.

I had an alt robbing drunks and helping Urchins in Spite yesterday, trying to get warm amber to give to the Rubberies after they had visited Flute Street to get the new item a couple of days ago. They mis-clicked and robbed a rat and got a watch. They also got the cane from the cavalry officer when they were changing Airs of London to try to get the Urchins option in Opportunism in Spite. Earlier that day they got a Bat with Attitude. So three rare successes in one day is very good fortune.
Also while they were visiting Flute Street I realised that character hadn't completed their Neathy Pokemon so they also picked up the final pet they needed to do that.

I'm exceptionally pleased to have reached Notability 12 after essentially blowing all of my Society connections and echoes. Moriarty wouldn't like a color plate, so I will stop there. Plus the snippet about being referenced by an Admiral in his entry sort of kind of maybe could be construed as a referenced to the Dark Spectacled Admiral in Sunless Sea, so I'll take it.

Nice! Moriarty is in a wonderful, yet infuriating position. Good news: * I have (finally!) brought down an Impossible Theorem. I'm naming mine the "Hunter-Seeker Algorithm." Because I'm an Alpha Centauri nerd. In universe, I'd supposed Moriarty has discerned a way to render any spy network impregnable. Such a thing is impossible, of course. That's why it works so well.
Bad news: *I have the materials to raise my Connected: The Masters of the Bazzar to the Title Cap (8, for "There May Be Indiscretions!") But I haven't got the card yet, despite sitting on a few hundred units of Proscibed Material. Time to wait, I guess, until the RNG god favors me. In the meantime, I've now exhausted all other options. Its time...to Overgoat.

Heh, after my first trip I specifically noted down what I'd need. I have to say, I LOVE the "carnival". One of my favorite places for that slightly unsettling feeling. When I got there, I just kept checking storylet after storylet going "Oh my god" over the cool little things. And I had a good laugh at the "Above the Neath". Didn't folks have rumors that SMEN would end that way?
Wasn't it Alexis who wanted to end SMEN with a 100 Fate storylet that permanently deleted your account? I feel like this is an homage to that.
The carnival was fantastic. I think it was one of my favorite bits of writing.

Feeling satisfied.

As mine has temporarily been relegated to the upper decks of a derelict tramp steamer that I am using to stash the scraps of... junk... he is helping me to acquire, would it be appropriate to refer to him as an Overboat Overgoat? (If only I could fortify my premises with a defensive waterway... well, I'm sure you see where that's headed.) As you have a Zubmarine, it would technically be considered an Undergoat. If you are referring to your derelict transport, according to maritime law a vessel which has been permanently withdrawn for navigational purposes is classified as a "dead vessel" and must use the prefix "DV." Such a vessel is no longer under the jurisdiction of the Admiralty, and thus it's designation as a boat at all might be brought into question. It is best to avoid such complications.

Today I both became a Midnighter and, for the first time in a very long time, reached the cap on all four main stats! (Though I celebrated not having to hold on to the Unsigned Message in my hand by heading straight to the Nadir, so that second won't last.)

I am unsure if this is a bit of good news, but it's certainly lively.
I am now sporting a moderately cooperative clothes colony. So far, it has not tried to strangle me, but it is somewhat twitchy at times -- and I won't tell it that my tailor might not entirely approve.

A relatively minor accomplishment compared to sundry zubmarines, wines, and euphonia, but I've finished grinding rats for entry into the Labyrinth of Tigers. Which I mostly mention because as soon as I'd mentally phrased it that way, I realized it sounded like I went to the trouble of making rat burgers.

I decided to wait no longer and liquidated about a third of my goods so that I could aqcuire an Ubergoat: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Corran?fromEchoId=2791051
On Tuesday I also became a Correspondent in what was a way too stressful a day and night.
I must have had over a hundred dinners and was very lucky that I got from zero to five Notability in about six days without failing a single check (and most were at 60% to 70% chance). I knew that 'Time, the healer' was coming soon so that last night so I kept flipping cards way beyond when I should have gone to bed.
Then the next morning I had everything ready at the last minute with no actions left. Past experience showed that 'Time, the healer' always shows up between six and eight hours after 'A payment at your Lodgings!' It had been more than six hours at that point so I didn't dare risk waiting any longer and broke down, spending ten nex on a refresh.
So I quickly got my new profession and was ready for a work appointment with seconds to spare. Colour my surprise when this particular day it took twelve hours for 'Time, the healer' to show up...
I'm really looking forward to an alternate method to show up for this, I can't even imagine wanting to try for Notability seven.

My luck's been pretty unremarkable for the most part, but some events tonight have inspired me so much that I've joined this community just to share them with you. I've been having a damned time working the Fidgeting Writer storyline, often getting stuck on the second to last stage. Tonight was my first time succeeding all the way to the end, allowing me to finally find out what the end result of all that effort was, to admirable results. I was telling my associates about the good fortune (they are both fairly low level and haven't even had the opportunity to try the storyline yet) when the conversation turned to my next goal: acquiring a salt weasel. Lo and behold, what turns up in my next set of cards but a milky white companion of my very own! That these two bits of good fortune finally came to me, and within such close proximity of one another seems to me a notable bit of good fortune.

I finally got a mood and maxed out my Scholar of the Correspondence (with help from the rare Fate-prerequisite River of Blood card). While my mood lasted I ground out a bunch more Enigmas and then got lucky and got myself another (!) Impossible Theorem.
Woo! And now I can go back to the Nadir, I've been waiting for weeks because I couldn't lower my notability-enhanced Watchful waiting to do this. edited by an_ocelot on 6/30/2014

Well, not much, but decided to brag with my achievements from my first 6 weeks! I gathered 5 skulls to enter the Cave of Nadir (it was a real penny dreadful). I'm done with T1 professions and decided to catch some rats, but I want to spy on their "A night-time conference". I'm few cards away from becoming a PoSI! Not much, but I'm proud of myself!

Congratulations on getting lovely watches so fast! I remember that the first one took me many (many, many) actions and I thought that I was unlucky as it was around 40-60. Congratulations for getting a lovely theorem and for getting the "lost" smoky puff! 4th time only from One's public?
After getting SiC to level 77 I was really eager to start robbing rats and get rid of the blasted card that was in my deck for about 10 months. At first, RNG was a bastard and only got 2 watches after 330 attempts, but the next 20 AP gave me another and, in the end, after 451 attempts I got another. Probably the rare success is around 1%, but I'm happy with my 0.89% considering how bad it started! Now I can count my 57645 coins while checking the time on 4 lovely Ratwork Watches!

First is more of a missclick, but I just discarded A little omen card thinking it's Cards with the Civil Service; who knows if I discarded it while I was checking the game on mobile. We follow up with the fact that after 115 plant battles I was again at a contest of Strength. But! I won 4 in a row, lost one, but won again two in a row! These all mean that I finally got a Cryptobotanical Rosette! Probably this was the most exhausting grind as I was tempted to abandon it temporarily. To 7 now! EDIT: Just drew A disgraceful spectacle two times in two days; one yesterday and just got it again now!  edited by Skinnyman on 1/30/2017

Think it's a combo between good fortune and bad luck, but I'll put it here as it was a fortune first! Made my Noman, put on my monocle and, after warming a Tear only a biiiit it was gone on my first attempt. Took extra measures and I managed to use the second for a whooping 27 times! 
RNG got back in any case even with two consecutive single use, but my average was nice after using 16; 5.9375 before melting so a 7.9375 ToL/bucket was nice!
Side note: Getting 27 consecutive successes is a chance of ~0.24178%, but haven't found my soul even if, mathematically, I should have got it back more than a few times back! RNG LOVE!
P.S.: Noman knows gain is 1-ToL level, not 1-6. edited by Skinnyman on 1/25/2018

Been having some issues with the game, so on a bit of a break the last couple months, though ive still been dropping in for things like the occ. trip to the Nadir. As of this week, I now can add a Lorn Fluke Core to my dragon like hoarde of rare and valuable rubbish (sorry I mean antiques and collectibles : D). Am at 2 Tier 6 items now (have a Vial of M.B.) also have half an item worth of scraps and if De Gustibus ever showed up I could grab a Crimson Book (have 10 Tears). Now it gets tricky to decide whether the Nadir is worth the stat risk for weekly visits.
Edit - I also briefly possessed the Reported Location of a One Time Prince of Hell, though that was sacrificed in the burning need to pursue my Heart's Desire. I must say it is the D*mndest thing, though my person Journal clearly and explicitly states the place that this Prince of Hell is located and unequivocally insists that he still resides (perhaps even languishes if one is inclined to express empathy for such entities) there, it would appear that some bureaucratic Fate or lesser Angel has decreed that knowing such a Location is not the same as possessing that knowledge.

Remember when I said I was 3 levels from being 200 Watchful? Well, I got them. I bought the smock. Then I went to Ladybones to see that I needed one more point of notability (which would take me 11 levels of MW). Crude. Worse, it would burn my Notability, meaning that I would have to grind it all back to become a Correspondent. I accepted the fate, after all, what would be the odds of me getting the Unsigned Message card during the one day that would take me to grind the making waves, right?
I got the making waves in a day, as expected. As I needed only 6 more cps, I drew the Amanuesis AND the Unsigned Message, one after another.
Now, I am both a Correspondent AND an Exceptional Mind, which is crazingly fitting (being recognized as a EM as you make the University go crazy is only natural). As soon as my free evenings reset, next week, I'll be able to take pupils. So excited.

I would like to take this moment to recommend the SFiG story to everyone. Not everyone's cup of tea, but it can really teach you something about yourself, and how far you're willing to go for something you're passionate about. Thank you Failbetter.

I finally got enough Greyfields to trade for the Broken Giant on the Presumptuous Little Opportunity card!
And then promptly drew another one a few hours later. D...d...darn it. Time to stock up again.

I just got the Blemmigan Secretary. The night before the auction son I don't even have to consider it. I can't believe it. (...I wonder if Failbetter would let someone get a second. It's only possible to get one via Bundle, after all...)
Oh, and I can confirm the Bundle value has been changed. I checked through my profile and my Bundle value was exactly 1000.

Accidentally discarded a Mood twice in the past week, and redrew it within a couple days both times. And now I have reached the vaunted ranks of Courier's Footprint.
Now for the next useless achievement...

And my winter goals are met! I have managed to:
- Fulfill my promise to the dockers,
- Upgrade all 3 of the 4 card lodgings (and I didn't own the Guest Room until the end of December)
- Obtain a Zee-Znail Retreat and Old Newgate Cellars (already had the temple)
- Retrieve a Mysterious Box (which I am not selling)
- Create a Noman
And all it cost me was a goat load of Lacre (43 points of which I had exactly enough. not all at once mind you), nearly 1000 echoes worth of items (the Guest Room and Lacre weren't cheap), my good name, and my soul. Which reminds me, I need to find that devil and explain that our arrangement is somewhat more temporary then I lead him to believe.

After spending 2 months waiting to collect trade secrets I got lucky and passed the 62% chance of success check to create a classic short story. If that coin toss had gone the other way I would be very sad now.

Finally got to 3200 scraps for the first time! Unfortunately, I can't seem to bring myself to spend them on anything. Who knows when one of the high scrap items might suddenly become important. I guess I'll just have to save up even more scrap so I can buy them all at once.
On the Topic of SotC. The basic watchful stuff you can buy from the Bazaar (minus hats because you need a mood) plus having 200 Watchful and an Overgoat (a minimum requirement) will get you as high as 246. From there you need to get an extra 24 points from various sources to get to 270 from which you can reach the SotC cap using a mood. Bonus sources are (noted with their benefit over the things they would have to replace):
- +2 Mirror Polished Shoes (from Patron) or +3 Meticulously Altered Stocking (from Christmas)
- +4 Pot of Violant Ink or Notched Bone Harpoon (from tier 4 watchful profession)
- +10 Ubergoat
- +3 or +5 Destiny
- +1 to +15 Extraordinary Mind specialization notability stat boost
- +1 Newspaper
- +1 Voluminous Library
- +1 Spouse
I actually made it without an Ubergoat but I was using a combination of bonuses from just about every other source on that list. Depending on what things on that list you can/are willing to pick up you may be able to max your SotC without a watchful destiny. edited by An Individual on 9/12/2015

I just achieved Notability 15 for the first time ever. Then immediately lost it when I used the Unsigned Letter Watchful overclocking to get my first ever 215 stat. And now I have officially completed the first step towards Paramount Presence. I now have "London's Nerve - Stary Wisdom".

I have an alt account I created ages ago to explore another ambition and alternate content paths. Then it did those things and, for lack of anything else to do, I set it to collecting Eyeless Skulls. Now that seeking has returned, I've pivoted it to pursue the name (along with my main account because I guess I'm crazy) so the skull hunt is not likely to continue. So what number did it reach?

Here's the profile. (Warning: I don't get the email notifications for this account)
It goes without saying that its hand is completely filled with skull cards. Its been seeking with a single card slot made possible by it's 5 card lodgings. What will I do with all those skulls now that the hunt is over? For the moment, I'm going to see how far the account can get while burdened with them. If those skull cards get too annoying I may convert them to Ray Drenched Cinders. I'd give them away but it sounds like somewhere on the Seeking road I may need an Overgoat to sacrifice. edited by An Individual on 6/10/2016

After a seemingly endless number of zee voyages, I've finally managed to get 500 pages of cryptopaleontological notes to get back in the university's good graces. (I had a lot of them from previous research voyages, but I had to use 500 to breed a certain beast.) Of course, they're the least readily available, and I ended up repeating the Corpsecage Island carousel a LOT before finally getting enough of the d---ed things. Let's just say I'm not planning to go back to Corpsecage anytime soon.

I've seemed to come across both the "A little omen" and "A dusty bookshop" opportunity cards in the same hand after one draw. With my study of the Correspondence nearing its end and my resulting need for as much Watchful as I can muster, I'd say this counts as a bit of good fortune.

I don't know if this counts as good fortune given that it's Seeking, but RNG favored me on my last go-round through Winking Isle. It only took me four days to finish, instead of a week and I even succeeded at the most risky well luck check.
And now I never have to see that godforsaken place ever again.

At the start of Hallowmas, I had 2 hats in my hand, 4-card lodgings but no Bat with Attitude. Moved into the Mansion, discarded both hats, started grinding echoes to buy Companions in case I do manage to acquire the bat.
Got: a Matriarch from a cat box (a day after buying one normally) a Starveling Cat from a cat box (always wanted an echo of both) a Commotion Above! another hat many, many strange pranks
Last day of Hallowmas, I draw my third bat card in 2 weeks and get the rare success.

Congratulations to all. Now it is time for me to post my good fortune.
While in the midst of acquiring a ship, I spotted a beautiful Majestic Pleasure Yacht that was sadly not mine to take. However, I spotted my chance when I heard rumours that its owner, Mr Apples, was a gambling man. Of course, one would not bet a ship in a round of poker. No, it was Sparrow. The price to play was high, but the stakes would be even higher. It was take some time before I could stake my claim, however. After sponsoring enough dream expeditions and penning enough poetry to become the patron saint of Bohemians, and cleaning multiple gambling houses out so often to be shot on sight, I managed to earn a seat. After days of grueling play, I managed to earn myself a Majestic Pleasure Yacht just in time for the holidays. What a delightful early Christmas present it was.

After about 2 weeks of grinding and 200 Tales of Terror used, I was able to reach the end of the Fidgeting Writer storyline and get 9 Comprehensive Bribes. A few more days of grinding, I was then able to get the yacht on my fourth try. It's not as bad as Winking Isle, but it's close.
Edit: The zubmarine grind for my alt is complete. It is probably better to just pay fate than to grind for two weeks straight just for one item, but for me, it is the principle of it all. edited by The Curious Watcher on 4/20/2018

I know it's not much, but I have given the milk to Clara and by doing so, reached the current end of my ambition. So now I am stuck on the ceiling, trying to remember my past. I know mechanically it make no difference, but I find that a bit awkward.
Overall, I am tremendously satisfied with this ambition. It was weird, creepy, sad and exciting and it took my character in new directions. It was what guided my decisions for almost all the game, and it feel kind of weird that it's over (for now). I agree with Helen Demeter on the google document Choice of Fallen London: At first, I was only in it for the jewel, but it's the character and the story that made me stay.
I guess you could say that in the end, the real treasure were the friends I made along the way...

Okay, I know I said that I didn't *want* the Yacht, and that I was happy with my Rusty Tramp Steamer ... but I didn't know that it came with a bloody *Tiger*!
I don't know, that somehow makes it for me. I live in a port city and I see yachts all the time, but a yacht with a tiger on it is just the right amount of Rock Star.

If this is correct, I must have pleased the RNG gods somehow, since I got the Ratwork Watch in like, 5-7 tries or so (I built up SiC up to 9 and then roobed the drunken rat as much as I could, got a Watch halfway through). If add some previous tries I made without really aiming for the Watch itself, I think I robbed the rat less than 20 times before getting my prize.

I recently found the Cave of the Nadir thanks to someone on here sending me an Eyeless Skull. The run itself was at half-past midnight, riding a Mood. February beat me to the Cave at 54 Archaeologists Progress because I failed a few ~80% chances (was going for 3's with rerolls on every one). I was so distraught but then the Chess Match storylet came up. I was out of rerolls, but it was a 91% chance.

Your Rivals Progress is now 1!
I was so freaking happy, you've no idea. I took 100% chances for the last steps and got there. I dread to think what would have happened had I failed and to grind Docks favours / wait for a mood / get another skull again. edited by Arcengal on 7/30/2018

Great place with a story to tell, though it takes a while to find all the pieces. And there is plenty of money to be made once you know your way around the cards. Do ensure that you are in a 4 or 5 deck "home" when you go there in the future -- some cards only cost and have very little benefit apart from the text, so are best played just the once for story. I thankfully already have Bazaar premises, which did make my initial expedition a lot easier to navigate - though my lack of knowledge of the cards meant I ended up with 6 Irrigo depite trying to specifically avoid that threshold. I did end up having all good cards though - one item upgrade, and two very valuable pieces of loot.

16 September: Duelled Feducci. Died once. A few quick, diverting games with the Boatman later, challenged him again; won once. (In what I imagine to be the space between late morning and afternoon.)
21 September: Raised Subtle to Machiavellian. Triumphed in a chess game to which I was not provided the rules. A most engaging exercise; that 26th cipher took me the better part of a lunch. To say nothing of their cryptic message of concession. Overall, an endeavour absolutely worth the sacrifice.
And a delightful Surface-world birthday present!

I didn't upgrade multiple items, however: each time I failed, I started again from the beginning. Curiously, I kept failing at the Royal Beth. In a day and a half of soul-crushing grinding, only three times did I actually succeed there; once I exchanged the Room Number for a Night-Whisper (something for the Urchins...), once I failed and once I succeeded. Then came my very first attempt with the Black Lens, which was successful, as I really hoped it would (50/50 chances), so I guess you could call that good fortune. As dispiriting as failure after failure was, it made success all the sweeter when it finally came. It was an incredible feeling.

(Yes I know I can make one in the Side Streets, but I don't really see the point of doing so for my collection.) This is somehow making me ridiculously happy because there are next to no other regular sources of portfolios of souls. Wow, big congratulations! And it's nice to know that the rare success is still available, but you happen to know which option you used?
Thank you! I'd wondered if the rare success was a myth as I've drawn it so many times with the normal result. Got the rare success from the second option, "Go and see what else you can find."

Let’s see, I’ve been playing for 3-4 years and have 7 magnificent diamonds. I think I first sold it during Sacksmas one year for the night whisper and storm threnodies, so the count should be 8, or was it 9? There was one period last year and earlier this year where I got it back twice in quick succession. It’s all dumb luck. All hail the RNG!

Yesterday I reached 200 Dangerous, which means that I have maxed out all four attributes!
So of course, today I drew both the 'A Little Omen' and 'A Dusty Bookshop' cards.

I advanced from a tier one profession (trickster) to tier three profession (Crooked Cross) in less than a week. The persuasive challenge from becoming a crooked cross gave me a 27% chance of success. I used a confident smile, but succeeded on my first try.

I have, today, gained 5 searing enigmas in one day.I have managed to buy my second eaten's calling card. {and pass it on, so don't bother asking for one for yourself from me, ask in the dedicated threat instead.}
In fact, I just need three more searing enigmas to start proscribed materials grinding for the next card. {well, hopefully. 10% "success" rate that doesn't give a calling card, according to a former page on the wiki that appears to have been edited out.}
Wish me luck! {estimated time for requisite enigmas: 18*8*3 = 432 actions.}

So after halving my Watchful to 58 in an ill-advised fit of enthusiasm for Seeking, I'm grinding up Watchful on Mutton Island in the regular carnival, as the regular rewards aren't actually of much use for Seeking. Which is entirely as it should be, of course.
(I did get the Wimple. I owe Sinning Jenny much for my boots. And case notes. And mourning candles, and a Watchful grind that, as mentioned, I have now entirely ruined again.)...
where was I? Oh, yes. Thought I'd try my luck on the Cock and Magpie, and, on a Watchful challenge that is chancy at a hundred, pulled a rare success.
I can only conclude that the Islands are a good place to be for Seekers. edited by Teaspoon on 8/16/2016

I received a well-timed invitation to the Temple Club before I sold lots of things to buy a cinder and I could buy my Premises at the Bazaar for a really nice price. Looks like I'll have a real office now.
Now, back to grinding madly, because I still need that cinder. And expensive clothing to become an Extraordinary Mind (only 3 more levels, it's maddening). And lots of money for the Vake ambition. And... Well, you get the picture. Still. Fancy 4-cards house. Yay.

I finally reached the end of the Fidgeting Writer storyline! This is probably my third or fourth attempt to plow through a few dozen Tales of Terror, and only the third time I've ever gotten a Black Lens (the first one I smashed for the bribe). The storyline payoff was worth the wait, and now I have a new item that I've never had before.

I went through a round of fidgeting writer, starting with about 400 tales of terror, and ended up with 14 coruscating souls! If my math is right, that's 4 more than I should have expected, and I'm within 1000 echoes of a goat! It's also possible I did my math wrong and I should have gotten more than that, but if that's the case, don't break my heart. Let me live in my ignorant world where I am happy.

Also, for mysterious reasons known only to the RNG, the card for it seems to be particularly elusive to those looking for it. (How far this is watched pot syndrome, no one of course can say.)

I began preparing for an expedition to the Nadir just before Christmas. When I decided it was time to start wandering the Quarter, I found an eyeless skull on the first attempt. Then today, I got the Docks, Mynah, and Mayor of London opportunity cards back-to-back, for 12 extra crates of supplies in about a minute and a half. It looks like I'll be heading out for the Nadir a lot sooner than I thought!

One hell of a payback, I say!

It is sort of good fortune to discover the case of the Deranged Medium just before insanity approach, yes? Because that's what happened to me.

I said it elsewhere, but the election came in a pretty convenient time for me. I could raise about 20 levels of watchful, I'm now the proud owner of 110 case-notes (now I have enough to share with the Honey-Addled Detective without looking too bad, I hope) and the ~1000 echoes I got in Collated Research might be exactly what I'm looking for (I have an orphanage to open, a cinder to buy, I'll soon need expensive clothing to be an Extraordinary Mind and so on). In one hand, having tons of Collated Research is fitting (academic character and all); in the other hand, it's even more fitting to profit from your research, since this is basically a professor's job description.
In other news, Derek FINALLY drew the Bohemians card and he is now a happy reporter digging up university gossip for Professor Strix's recently created newspaper (the timing was perfect: I opened the newspaper in one day and Derek got the job the next day). Unfortunately, I can't think of an advanced career for him. He definitely won't be a Correspondent.

Probably 9 rare successes, but I can't remember if I recorded the 3rd consecutive one which led me to discover the option's cap.

Besides, they don't need to get dirty in pursuit of souls, usually.
Once you ignore the religious sterotyping, they're really no nastier- probably less nasty than- humans. Sure, they're ruthless and cutthroat, but... have you been to london? most of us have poisoned purfume for a single echo- we have no grounds to judge them. I wasn't talking about religious stereotypes, but the reward in selling your soul (insert shinny diamond here)! I wasn't intending to increase my Connected with the Church, but that damn card is so great that I'm at 100+ Connected Church w/o grinding it at all.
As this is a celebrating thread I would like to add that I'm soon eligible to become a Monster-Hunter! Have the card for a few days in my hand, level 3 Duelist and grinding RB to face Feducci as I read it'll take me from 3 all the way to level 5. The only blocker will be my chance to succeed the card's challenge.

Congratulations, everybody! Not much, but I got my 4 card lodgings few days ago. Those heist were very interesting; even if I get lower EPA, I find them thrilling! And second: I'm close to my first 100+ connection which, oddly, it's the Church.  Grenem wrote:
It's only about 2-weeks grinding if done right- which i didn't, so i had to rely on social actions as well. What method did you use and which one enables somebody to get to those levels in 2 weeks? I think The Public Lecture is the best with 15 CP of 3 factions. It'll get to 12 CP as you need to clear up suspicion which is best done in Spite with the right Air. To change the Air just farm Widow connections. Bit offtopic, but is there a guide to best actions for certain Air levels? For example, I want to lower suspicion (0-25), farm Widow connection with best action (33-67), but I find the gain of 5-6 CP of Widow connection from different Airs not really worth it.

At least by then we'll probably have a few Schemes at our disposal. That will increase the likelihood of drawing a useful card, and make things much less frustrating provided that you've prepared things in advance.

Master's Blood from the Sommelier, burning all my remaining Tears of the Bazaar (silly me, should've kept them instead of selling them previously, you know that eventually EVERYTHING is useful) and all my stockpiled Scheme: Salon, plus various of the new mechanisms to top off Making Waves, to get to Notability 7.

That was on 11/28/2014 ; I now have 3241 (when did I tip over 3200 without noticing?!!). So, that's how fast you can get scraps for a top-tier item if you're stat-maxed, have all the lodgings, live at a Remote Address, nix most of your Connected: conflict cards, (edit: have a Sulky Bat), and draw cards in the Flit to get scraps from urchins. edited by an_ocelot on 3/9/2015

Good news: Madison got her soul back! Bad news: I clicked through it so fast I didn't notice I had gotten that option until it was too late to check the exact value.
At the very least I can say for certain that the new value is within the range of The Student Body, so One's Public's range probably wasn't extended.

I'm grinding Whirring Contraptions at Wilmot's End, and my Scandal's at 7.7 - I try to go to church, but am unlucky and it goes to 8. I switch to my inventory and the bazaar frantically looking for anything I can use to lower my sanity. Unsuccessful, I click on the message window and find that at that exact minute @RustingGuns responded to my decrease scandal request from 4 hours earlier.
SO RELIEVED.

Though my luck for the most part of this is anything but *good*, I am now the proud owner (?) of an overgoat.
The latter part of this was through the Fidgeting Writer, btw, which gave me much less encouraging rates than some people here have posted - 1.77 echoes per action without taking into account the cost of getting the materials. If anyone is collecting detailed stats on this, I can throw some numbers at you...
Now to the next challenge...

This being the last chance, I figured I'd spring for the monkey . . . and it was a success!! After 5 or 6 dead rats, I now have a beautiful, disturbing carapaced pet among my collection.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am now the very proud owner of a Rubbery Euphonium!
I have spent months camped out in Spite waiting for this thing and was beginning to wonder if it were nothing but an inside joke or a very cruel trick played on the more gullible players. And then this morning I was listlessly flipping through cards and there it was, in all its amber glory. Please rejoice with me! Punch will be served in the secret salon at half-past eleven.
. . . and now I don't know what to do with myself. Not that I have everything or have done everything, but that was my big goal for so long. I need to pick another one. Maybe building up my Master Thief (how high does this go?). Maybe an expensive item from the Bazaar.

mentioned somewhere else already but my main has published a powerfully meritous paper, after a week of cardflipping for interviews. and also the affair of the box, which i chose WRONGLY and spied on mister stones for fires.
and one of my alts has bought his/her first endgame gloves, the awfully sticky-looking lenguals.why are they even shadowy??? http://community.failbettergames.com/topic6136-why-are-lenguals-shadowy.aspx and and and... a swifty ship! You stoke the engines and steam out from the docks. Good god, but she's fast. You leave London in your churning wake. And then you turn around and head back. You've salvaged the ship, at least in legal terms. She is yours! Huzzah!

Pleased to say I FINALLY managed to get to the end of the Fidgeting Writer storyline successfully. I found it very expensive and frustrating to play, and now I've got the final item and read all the story text I won't be playing it again.
Ah, that explains it. I'm somewhat humor-challenged. :-)
Congratulations on completing the Fidgeting Writer line. I have gotten *almost* there, only to lose at the very end!
A small tip for those who are finding failures during this storyline to be frustrating, as I did:
The items generated along the way (Sense of Deja Vu, Glimpse of Something Larger etc.) are not unique. If you make several of them they will stack in your inventory. I liked to create lots of the item for a particular step in the chain, then use all of them to create a (somewhat smaller) stack of items for the next level, and so on. Although this is no more rewarding or efficient in the long run, I found that it gives more of a feeling of progress over time.

For statistics and further info. I played this conversion storylet 51 times. Only twice did I get the rare success mentioned above, so a very rough estimate of 4% (sample size is only 50). This is in contrast to other, less profitable conversions which have a rare success about 1 in 10 from my experience. There was no other rewards other than the ordinary 4 incideniary gossip, making me think there is no super rare reward and this is genuinely the rare reward. I'll update my profile to show the 11 searing enigmas I own. I got 10 from these conversions and 1 from fidgeting writer. edited by singularityshot on 7/11/2012

Good fortune indeed! It was apparent that I happened upon a very exclusive salon in Veilgarden this evening. One can only assume that it was an editorial synod for the Crimson Book. Very risky for two sections to be in the same building at the same time. As it was, I was able to gleam four excerpts after expounding on the faded postcards that Capering fool gives to me. After that the night went rather downhill, but traumatised drunk surface poets are always the risk one takes when visiting these salons.
(What the above means: Decided for the benefit of mr pages that I would aquire some Touching Love Stories. First two transfers both resulted in the rare success of two Uncanny Incabulae. The other two transfers were unlucky results but I won't complain.)
An update: It seems that my input was well recieved, and upon my return this afternoon another excerpt was delivered with my lunchtime tipple. A selection of banned lovestories and a healthy supply of Greyfields to enjoy it with? Now that IS a pleasant afternoon. (3 rare successes, 3 lucky results and 2 unlucky from 8 planned exchanges? What incredible fortune!) edited by singularityshot on 1/15/2013

Shadowy's just been capped! All I need is Dangerous, and then I'll join the semi-kinda-elite order of stat capped players!
I guess you could say...
It's a feather in my cap.

I've just capped my second stat, Watchful!
It's funny, I remember thinking 20 Watchful was really high. I remember getting 2 Whispered Secrets and thinking "I've hit the jackpot!" I remember looking up to those big, stat-capped players and thinking "I'll never get to that level..." And now I am that fancy, PoSI elite. Oh, how things change...

The Orphanage.
Attracting Attention At The Orphanage was 1 CP away from 6. I just needed the roof key. The bronze-bordered card to get it stared at me. I stared back. The challenge was high-risk, but I didn't feel like grinding Shadowy. I took a deep breath and clicked.
"You succeeded in a Shadowy challenge! (Risky challenges mean you learn more)."
BEST. FEELING. EVER

Hey, that gives me an idea! Put a Salt Weasel in a bucket, lower it down a well, and if it's not dead or insane, have it tell you what it saw!
It's risk-free! For you, at least.

Well, I went to bed with fairly mundane brown eyes, and when I woke up this morning I had swirling dark grey eyes, the color of a raging thunderhead over a tempest-tossed sea. I mean Zee.
Probably doesn't mean anything.
-- News in the Neath: Noted citizen of Fallen London, Abraham Bounty, has acquired six hundred and sixty six souls. Additionally rumour has it that the lion's share of those souls was from a theft of The Brass Embasy itself. We are quite certain that this portents nothing ominous for him. Well, nothing unusually ominous anyway.

Well, at last my character Blue joined the Neath's artistic gotha, writing a short story deemed as Classic. I can't say it was difficult nor terribly lengthy (sure getting an Übergoat requires more effort), nor a particularly unlikely stroke of luck (the check was at slightly more than 60% chance of success), but it was the THIRD TIME I tried it and I had already put all of my Case Notes in it to no use, so it does feel like a liberation

I think this one deserves it... Landing in Hunter's Keep after my first zee trip looking for the Stone Tentacle-Key, I underwent the cycle only to discover that even fully equipped my Dangerous level only gave me a Nearly Impossible chance to find it (I had consulted the wikis, but didn't find the exact amount of Dangerous needed to try it at a better chance). I was chock full of Tinctures of Vigour though, so I set myself to find the blasted key or die trying. Got it at first try ^^
EDIT: I actually KNEW the difficulty of the check, from Wieland Burandt's answer in another thread. I just had forgotten it altogether T.T But all for the good: If I'd known the check to be so difficult, I probably wouldn't even have tried it so soon  edited by streetfelineblue on 4/30/2012

If I may: When one acquires an Overgoat, one is Overgoated. As the word goat comes from the Old English "gat" for female goat, to be Overgotten, Overgot or any other dirivitive of the verb "to get"(or "to beget" from the Old Norse) would likely anger the Overgoat, which is not recommended. However, to Overgloat, which is to brag of one's Overgoat, is perfectly acceptable.
It is good to hear the wisdom of the Overgoat on matters grammatical. Truly it is a font of knowledge. I had wondered if acquiring an Overgoat was overbegetting (or beovergetting?), but I suppose overbegetting is something that Overgoats do themselves when making new Overgoats for all the Londoners who want to buy them.

Yeah, they took it away awhile ago. It was in need of a serious overhaul and they haven't had the time or money to be able to focus on it. Although my time playing it is the reason I never have more than a few Echos sitting around. Cashing out to as close to exactly what I need and no more is a remnant of my time spent playing.

After several failed attempts I finally made it to the House of Mirrors at Midnight.
1st attempt: Not enough Memories of Light 2nd attempt: Not enough moon pearls 3rd attempt: Not enough nightmares and then I forgot I was wearing my sporing bonnet. 4th attempt: Success! Of a sorts. I can't believe I just did that. Well, I guess I have something new to do as I find a place to live again.
SMEN is amazing, but seriously, don't do it.

I'm now a Correspondent. I should have chosen to be a Correspondent, but I resigned from my job as an Author and became a Glassman for the Uncanny Incunabula.
Edit: I held the Unsigned Letter card in my hand for 2 weeks, because the card I was waiting for was the Bohemian card, to upgrade from a Journalist to an Author. It took me one and a half weeks of solid card flipping to get the Bohemian card.
So naturally, I've drawn the Bohemian card twice in the last hour. edited by Nagato-01 on 2/28/2015

My latest dealings with Hell yielded me a substantial amount of brass and goodwill.
The Bazaar, surprisingly enough, does not appreciate my entrepreneurial spirit, and has informed me that she will not accept the sale of more than 60 thousand pieces of brass at once.
I wonder why the Bazaar has such a policy. edited by Nagato-01 on 3/2/2015

After (I'm actually not sure how long; I stopped counting), I finally raised my Enigma count to 77, so that, on the off chance that the SMEN God's Editors storylet becomes available again, I may be one of the first to metaphorically hurl myself off a cliff and impale myself on the undoubtedly pointy rocks below.

Heh, after my first trip I specifically noted down what I'd need. I have to say, I LOVE the "carnival". One of my favorite places for that slightly unsettling feeling. When I got there, I just kept checking storylet after storylet going "Oh my god" over the cool little things. And I had a good laugh at the "Above the Neath". Didn't folks have rumors that SMEN would end that way?

The wedding for my character and her fiancé will commence this week! After much grinding on both sides they at long last have over 1000 Organising -- I now know you should never underestimate the power of over 60,000 Rats and +1000 Romantic Notions and alcohol! -- but will grind a bit more for the Wedding to make sure it goes perfectly on both sides.
I noticed in some screencaps people have shown, you apparently eat up the Organising during the event? It makes sense but that makes me wonder now how that goes down between two characters. Is it halved? Is the one who carried the weight of the wedding, at the time, given the most? Is the quality flat out shared between the two? At this point I don't care! I'm deliriously happy all the wedding planning is over. St. Dunstan's here we come!

Good News!: I got my mood card again at last. I decided to postpone the ubergoat grind and instead go for Igneate Eye anyway. Because why not live a little while there's an action refresh sale? And I did get there, at last! Hooray!
Bad News: I forgot Mood Cards equip as hats. So I wasn't able to get past SoTC 18. In fact, even with the ubergoat my current build comes out to 293. So I'll need to change my destiny and switch careers. Fun! But at least now I know. It was gonna be a long time before I saved enough for two overgoats and got a mood card again, anyway. Plus now I can leave the city freely!

My youngest, Seeker character got their classic short story on their first attempt. Even though a lot of the persuasive challenges were chancy and they used only two trade secrets they didn't fail a step. I was sure their luck would run out at some point and I was so relieved when they took the last step and succeeded.

I finally have enough resources and echoes that, if I wanted to, I could go and get two overgoats and make an ubergoat. The reasons I don't do it are because I don't like consorting with demons, prefer to keep the money to feel rich and I speculate that there will be later opportunities to put that wealth to good use.
Mind you this has less to do with good fortune than mind-numbing repetitiveness.

And finally, 3 weeks of effort and planning have paid off as I am now a Scholar of the Correspondence 21 - Courier's Footprint!
The plan was: 1. Get Watchful to 150 and get SoTC to 16 (I started at about 11) 2. Get Notability to 14 and use it to increase base Watchful to 214 3. Get an Overgoat 4. Switch profession from Midnigher to Correspondent (for the +12 weapon) 5. Use Mood card
That was exhausting. And expensive. This felt more masochistic than anything I've ever done as a Seeker.
Total cost: 165 x Extraordinary Implication = 412.5 echoes 165 x Aeolian Scream = 412.5 echoes 2640 x Correspondence Plaque = 1320 echoes 1 x Overgoat = 11712.80 echoes = 13857.80 echoes
(not to mention the need for many wound reductions and quite a bit of Nex to keep refreshing actions while the Mood lasted)

I'm delighted to announce that Zee Dee is finally a Person of Some Importance. He's my first FL character but the last to achieve PoSI status.
I can still recall my beginning weeks... I was wronged. I rested my head in a miserable little Newgate cell with dripping masonry and a straw mattress which was harder than the stones that imprisoned me. I escaped to the city only to find myself in a different situation of squalor. I had no place to call my home and hid shivering in an abandoned crypt. I gained my first pence by selling my manacles to the Bazaar... Now my biggest concern in life is acquiring a majestic yacht from a Master!
Every time I pass an attic window, I think of the first decent home I purchased in Fallen London. It had great wallpaper. If I could lease another attic room, I would do it even if it cost me a fortune. I wouldn't live there, though. I simply want the reminder of where I started and where I hope I'd never be forced to return.

This is more good news for everyone else, but I can confidently say that the Ubergoat is the highest tier of goat. I currently have two and the Overgoat card in my hand, and there are no new breeding options. A little disappointing as I was hoping for some form of Ur-Goat or Caprine Abomination, but at least I can stop wondering.
To be fair, all that really proves is that you need more than two Ubergoats to make a bigger goat.

And without any Fate! I don't mean to brag*, but my tactical gambit of massively reducing my stats by giving away St. Destin's candle so I can draw the necessary card has paid off, despite looking exactly like the blind flailings of an incompetent stumbling through repeated hoops of tragedy!

In approximately 6 weeks, my alt (Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate) has:
- become a POSI - gone from Notability 0 to 5 - progressed in Profession from Rat-Catcher to Stalker to Monster Hunter - acquired all three 4-card lodgings and a 5-card lodging - cashed in many Trade Secrets and bought loads of fancy-ass gear - allowed me to begin replaying lots of the early POSI stories
Next step: a ship!

It is indeed halved, and it doesn't discriminate between who gave the most. Although with the 1000 option, you'll get to try most (if not all options) at least once, bar an option that requires 600 organizing (so you'd need get the 10k wedding to get it).

The Month of Grind is finally ending for me! I got my Zubmarine (and I never want to go near Wilmot's End again) and, with a bit of help from my infernal friends, moved to my new rooms at the Brass Embassy. Maybe I won't catch a cold this winter. Oh, and I seriously hope that no-one realised that most of the Muscaria Brandy I used to get a key dissapeared mysteriously from Infernal Sommelier's cellars some time earlier...

Hmm. 50 days for 11713 Echoes = ~234E/day. Assume you start at 7 a.m. with full candles and play every action through to say 11 p.m., that gives [40+(16*6)]=136 actions day, or 1.72 E/action. That's pretty damn maximised :-).

Not so much a notable feat that a surprising and exciting one: my brand new alt (W16/S35/D5/P21) just scored a certain Counterfeit Head from an autofire card... However, it doesn't look like the season has started right yet. Now, if *I* could get my hands on one... Alas, my little plant has developed some kind of allergy to Greyfields 1879 and won't sprout (either that, or I am consistently unlucky with it...)

Not entirely sure if my most recent visit to Nadir belongs here or to the "painful failures" thread. On the one hand I managed to snatch two bottles of Airag, two Enigmas and two Incunabula, on the other hand I ended up with Irrigo 11 and lost 50CP in every stat not twice, but thrice, because I was foolish enough to click "Perhaps not" in order to see what happens.
Edit: As Gillsing aptly pointed out, I only got one Incunabulum; getting two would be impossible. All this Irrigo light must be taking its toll on me. edited by Asfodella on 11/4/2014

The RNG and I... don't always get along. But I think it's made amends.
I just had my first trip to the Nadir today. Three Catafalqueries, one Unlikely Garden, and one piece of SMEN lore.
To make things better, I had been throwing second chances at the Garden for a bit (5% success chance), but my kindle is a bit fussy, and on the sixth or seventh try, I forgot to use a second chance. RNG took pity on me, and I succeeded.
