[quote=Spacemarine9]or it’s something to do with day 15 of the iron republic
i can’t find the spreadsheet that detailed how to get to the various days, so i dunno [/quote]
Day 15, according to my personal notes, is a Connected: Revolutionaries challenge. You get there from Day 8, succeeding on the Beauty challenge (you get to Day 8 from failing at Day 1 or from Day 42).
I haven’t been back yet, though.
I, too, became reconnected to the Masters and a ‘River in a box’ was just delivered.

I’m sure ‘15’ just means someone else found a box. Wheeeeeeeeere did they find it, I burn to know!
There was a batch job run around 6 PM GMT. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this is a reasonable enough answer.
Language is so ambiguous, isn’t it? “Thinking outside the box” can either be a figurative recommendation to be unconventional or might just be literally telling us to stop obsessing over the River in a box in the search for the Mirrorcatch. That thing with the hats beneath the river blows my mind, too. Is there some storylet with Drownies and hats? Was that not the clue at all? I’m terrible at these kinds of puzzles, but I love them.
I was thinking that outside the box might mean the literal outside of the box… where there is a correspondence rune, by the sound of it. But not sure how to put that theory into action!
I’m pretty sure these are the sorts of clues no one will actually figure out. Someone will probably just stumble upon it by accident and spill the beans, or the Bazaar will give us a much more obvious clue, and only after the fact will these initial clues make sense.

Well, my research is currently limited to what I can do on the Slow Boat. Not much, apparently, and nothing with said River in a Box. Ho hum.

How, exactly, would someone at a low level gain Connected: Masters? I’m a non-PoSI, so if that’s a requirement, I’m still locked out, but still…nice to know it’s still possible. ;)

Exactly how low-level? There are several sources before POSI, from the revels, from Knife-and-Candle story and the one where you investigate something to name a few.

Are people who’ve recently come back into the Masters’ favor still receiving boxes or has that ship sailed? I took time out from Seeking to try to get my Connected back, and after supplying a great quantity of beverages to Mr. Wines, I finally have it again.
But the Number beckons.
It’s been several days since I became connected again, and nothing has happened. I would really like a river in a box of my own, just for the sake of having one, but there’s no sense in putting off my search indefinitely if nobody is getting them at all anymore.
I’d say the chances of another River batch being sent out at this point are extraordinarily low, seeing as their main use is gone and the description explicitly refers to the Feast of the Rose anyway
Although there is an alternative way to get them now.
An alternative way to get a River in a Box, or an alternative way to get a Mirrorcatch Box? I know the way to get the latter, but I haven’t seen any method for the former.
There’s an alternate way to get a Mirrorcatch Box? Does it involve K&C?
Also, I doubt there will be any more River Boxes distributed anymore. I have one, and I can’t even use it because the link reached its 100 usages. The only purpose it serves now is to get you 32.5 echoes, and while that is useful, it’s not anything that can’t be done by more mundane means.

Yes, you can steal one through K&C. There’s a storylet on the “Attack” opportunity cards that let you take a Mirrorcatch Box from it’s owner. The catch: 1. You have to identify an owner of a Mirrorcatch Box, and 2. you have to defeat him in a K&C bout.
Do you lose the Favours regardless of victory or failure? Feel free to post the answer anonymously at http://fallenlondon.wikia.com/wiki/Mirrorsnatch! if that makes you feel safer. Sometimes I can’t tell if I’m talking to several people or one person with split personalities.
