[/color]Well, with so many unfinished storylets in Fallen London ( I bet 77 First City coins that even FBG members forgot some of these currently IMPOSSIBLE! stories. ), it’s nice to see some progress. And I really love interconnection between qualities…
I heard that House of Chimes’s invitation is great example of reflection of one’s achievement, so why other stories can’t have some of it? I really hate it whenever I see GameplayAndStorySegregation, and sadly lots of stuff… oh, this is deraling topic. I’ll finish it on other place.
[color=#ffffff]Possibly related PS: [/color]When will this surface-invitation system fixed? I can’t possibly advertise Sunless Sea without showing Fallen London first, and if people cannot use my invitations / or block me for "Spamming", I can’t possibly advertise Fallen London without looking like a scam spam.
[color=#ffffff]Unrelated PS: [/color]Why is every single new qualities go under "Story" tab? Even without numerous stuff that belong to other tabs, It’s so horribly cluttered and long enough to hurt my middle finger. Quirks are also messy, as they tend to have "caps" for no real reasons, thus failing to show one’s character development. And is "ruthless" means evil or pragmatic? The stories that give them have capricious criteria.
Oh, my! Everything looks scrumptious, but I’m especially intrigued by the Salt Lions (sphinxes! monuments! mysteries!), the DAWN MACHINE, Adam’s Way, and Port Carnelian.

I highly doubt that.

They’re going to have something like this readily available. It may be facetiousness, bu it comes off like assuming incompetence, which could be interpreted as rather rude. edited by Theus on 9/3/2013

Sorry. I was just wondering that maybe these are low on the to-do-list of FBG. Sunless Sea is huge project, and I remember that during StoryNexus development, someone at FBG confirmed that several requests are delayed due to them being too busy. Also, sorry for underestimating computer wizards, my Data-Fu is very lacking. Please forgive this analougelubber.
By the way, should I actually send 77 Coins? And if I have to, how exactly I send 77 coins? Sending option only allows 30 coins at a time, and neither 60 or 90 is 77. 7 is important, you know…
Oh scrumptious! I’ll take any of these gladly - I haven’t determined my Kickstarter pledge level yet, but it will certainly be enough for the beta. I’d say my favorite might be the Dawn Machine, due to my sympathy for getting some light down below, but I’m also intrigued by Adam’s Way (but where is Eve?) and the Sea of Autumns.

THE EMPIRE OF HANDS, THE CHELONATE, THE NEW KHANATE, THE SEA OF AUTUMS, THE PORT OF WHITHER, ADAM’S WAY, and of course, THE DAWN MACHINE.
I’m getting shivers of anticipation again, far greater than from Nadir. We will dutifully crack open the darkness and strain the murky tendrils of mystery from the boding Unterzee.
The New Khanate if we can join the Khan in his dreams. Honestly, I feel like the Fallen London universe could do with more dream wandering (I love it but it’s limited in FL itself). Otherwise, The Empire of Hands. Soul-stealing monkey-kings sound too good to resist.[li]
