I’ve just discovered something today that disturbs me a little.
The social action for inviting a friend to loiter suspiciously is problematic:
http://fallenlondon.wikia.com/wiki/Invite_a_friend_to_join_you_in_something_rather_shadowy.
The inviter recieves 2x Hastily Scrawled Warning notes, a penalty to society and to making waves.
The invitee recieves only ONE note, and the same penalties. They also recieve a single change point to their shadowy, which is barely worth mentioning, there are a million better ways to level it. That one note also comes with a lower note limit, too
There is no upfront cost to sending an invite except for an action. And the reciever requires an action to accept it too, so that equation is irrelevant.
One player is getting a free extra note out of this, and that creates a conflict of interest. anyone who realises, will want to be the inviter, and not the invitee.
This seems absurd, what’s the reasoning for this?
