So what WAS the question Huffam wanted to ask? Surely the Jovial Contrarian can draw a good bath if he decided to start his campaign after dozing overnight in one, but certainly Huffam must have been going for something a little more… substantial, I suppose?[/quote]
My first guess was "absolution," but "libation" could also be a possibility.

But the Contrarian - much like the Princess - did, thanks to the previous election he appeared in. And his facial features have changed a lot - notably his slim nose and hairline.[/quote]
Here’s the original:

The top three are the Contrarian, but I thought the last one was the Melancholy Curate, not the Contrarian.
One thing I definitely miss is being able to use Talk of the Town and my Newspaper to get election resources. Those things and social actions made the election feel a lot more encompassing.

It’s both, in fact - both that and the leftmost of the newer portaits are generic ones used for a number of different characters.
Can anyone who’s done the Fate options on the candidate cards let me know approximately how much MW they provide? If it’s more than 80-ish I’ll want to grind by hand and call on Slowcake first, not to overshoot.
EDIT: Well, if anyone’s wondering, I got a measly 33CP. No idea if it’s random or fixed, of course. Also a single Intelligence and some nice character info (although not particularly relevant to politics), so I don’t regret it but it’s not worth it if you’ve already read the echo somewhere (except for the RP aspect).

Indeed I was very disappointed to see that I cannot use the newspaper for the election.
Why in god’s name would anyone want to be trapped on a deserted island with the PRINCESS?!

Inspired self-destruction is a Fallen London staple. And the Captivating Princess has a better hairstyle than Mr Eaten.[li]

Ah, but of what genre? Romance? Horror? Fantasy?

Best chance Drake will ever get for his assassination plan.
Probably for the same appeal of the Liberation of Night Appetite destiny. It’s not for everyone…
"You have nothing to fear but each other" indeed.
God, I forgot how horrific that destiny is. The eating people alive is dropped in there so casually.
I guess I’m a shy Princess supporter as I generally answer Slowcake whenever the poll question would bring me into too close a physical proximity with Her Royal Highness.
It’s OK. "They were basically dead"
There’s a thought. I wonder who’d be mayor now if Fallen London had preferential voting?

This is a poll you don’t want your candidate to win in a first past the post system.
Hell, even in a typical preferential system, a noted flaw is that a candidate who’s everyone’s second choice will always lose.
I’m not familiar with many voting systems, how does a "typical" preferential one work? My intuition would be to use a score-based one, such that if someone is everyone’s second choice but no single first-choice candidate is popular enough to rack up more points, the second-choice one will win.
