The IroNoman Marathon: Season 2

[quote=Barselaar]You’ve lost 99x Noman’s Friend.

Well, we’re in the home stretch folks - good luck to all![/quote]
Have a habit of checking peoples level and you blew me away! May I ask how much you invested in it? I started my preparations, but seems so useless when I saw your Noman after few TtH visits.
Even if it’ll probably get harder next year I’m really happy to see so many people are doing great!

Altogether too much! I realised I had enough to guarantee survival in previous years, but I wasn’t sure if the melt rate was gonna be bumped up this year, so instead I just decided to make the biggest buffest Noman I could possibly make. I guess I miss SMEN a bit, and pouring a load of valuables down a Noman’s throat was the closest I could get to throwing them down a well again.

On Tuesday 2/7 my noman lost 95 Noman’s Friend. It seems I got pretty lucky compared to some others.

How high has anyone gotten Noman Knows? Wonder if there’s a secret waiting there…

I lost 114 Noman’s friend today. Over its life I lost 32, 49, 58, 115 and 114. I’d made mine early because I hadn’t actually planned to try for it, but changed my mind.

I’m above 15 at the moment and my Noman looks like he might be around for quite some time still, so I’ll keep pushing it to see if anything changes.

I lost 115 on 9 Feb at 2am PST

Friday, 10/02, 01:00 am GMT - lost 115 points.
For me, that’s the same as last week (lost 111 back then).

Decaying rate is pretty moderate this year. Not at all the Armageddon we thought it will be.

We did it! Congrats to everyone who made it.

As an aside - I keep getting server error messages when trying to get my Gant Noman tattoo - is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just me? Support email sent, I’m just curious.

Edit: It seems to be some kind of issue with An Incident at Millicent’s, as people are reporting the same with the Pale Visitor option. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.

And… I’ve crossed the finish line! Noman tattoo is on my scrapbook, and echoed here: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/navchaa?fromEchoId=11067014

Bought the Noman at 9 ToL, spent 34 pails of snow and 15 tears on it. Started with 640 NF and am now at 406 NF. Waiting for my actions to refresh to get the gant tattoo.

Congrats to all who made it, and good luck to those grinding for next year!

Hahaha, big congratulations to those who managed to get the tattoo, but to those who were a bit unlucky as well!
As I’m aiming to get one next year, care to post/PM your resources used, NF start and NF end? :)
I’m at 4 Tears and resources for 4 extra buckets.

Either living stories have been fixed or a workaround has been put in place - Pale Visitor and Gant tattoos now work as intended!

Yay!
One formal and one Gant Noman’s tattoo.
Started with 25 pails, 20 Tears. Had quite the bad luck using the tears, as wrote several pages ago.
Started with 600 NF, Noman remains with 323, after 3 TtH.

Very exciting! Thank you all for helping and cheering.

I’ve done the thing. Congrats to everyone else!

Definitely used waaay more resources than I needed to, but so it goes. Detailed data on my Noman process can be found here: Noman Info - Google Drive

There’s also group data on the second sheet from everyone’s input into this thread. Figured it might help genesis.

Wow, what an impressive spreadsheet! Congrats, idyl; and thank you for sharing the data!

Does this mean we choose either Pale Visitor or Gant tattoo and we can’t do both?

I believe that’s how it works, yes, but I may well be wrong - both sets the &quotAn Incident at Millicent’s&quot quality to 1, and that appears to lock both storylets.

Did anyone echo the Pale Visitor? It was already around last year, but what does it do exactly?
