Fallen London

Well, congratulations are in order and don’t worry, probably everyone was that cheap when reaching the PoSI state. Yes, you will be forwarded back to the card and it’s best to try and gain your first point of Notability. Depending on how many cards you are able to draw per day and RNG it may be very useful to have increase it; this way you won’t need a card to get more Notability.[/quote]

Thanks! I’m afraid I rushed the thing, though (I’ve barely explored the university and mahogany hall). Anyway, it seems my BDR/MW isn’t high enough, so the card will sit on my deck for quite some time…

22

And TtH just came, further lowering my MW…

23

How do I get to Flute Street? I thought it would give me access after I completed the University storyline, but I’ve got nothing and info is really scarce on the ground. I’ve just come back from my first island expedition, but I haven’t spent any of my research notes yet. Is it a card? Or am I just not far enough along?

Edited to clarify a point.

Flute street is behind a fate locked option on a card that appears after you finish an investigation that unlocks when you finish the university storyline.

You’ll need to draw this card, progress and you’ll end up with another card. Think the last will pop up all the time until you unlock Flute Street which requires Fate to do so.

26

Is there a limit on how many favors I can get in the tomb colonies? Is it just 7 at a time?

27

All Favours are capped at 7. You can never have more than that.

28

And not only there. Other actions that aren’t locked by 7 Favours don’t provide more; here’s an example.

29

Something up with the Fallen London site?

Last couple of hours the pages won’t load properly. Struggles for a bit and then gives up on some of the pictures, backgrounds and whatnot. Don’t think it’s my end, as the rest of the internet seems to be working fine.

30

Having the same problem, Plynkes. Won’t even load the page currently. :\

31

I think its a problem on FB’s side because I’ve been getting it too

32

There’s been some issues w. Amazon’s S3 web-based storage systems. If FL loads elements from there it could be that.

(this is effecting far more places than just FL – if this is what’s going on.)

Oh, it’s probably that, since my status bar shows being stuck on that address when I try to load FL. That’s unfortunate.

Same problem here, too! Do you think we ought to file a bug report?

35

If it’s issues with Amazon’s storage pages, I really doubt there’s much FB could do about it. In any case, mine was acting up a few hours ago but seems fine now.

36

Question! I’m a POSI and I’ve got 2 mood cards siting in my deck. I’ve read that they are super-rare and I’ve been saving them for a special occasion… for months now. Should I keep on holding them? If not, what should I use them for?

37

Difficult storylines, increasing scholar of The correspondence at the university, and renown.

38

I stopped holding onto them when the Exceptional rose came around, but I’d reccomend holding onto them

39

My main became a PoSI a couple of days ago, but instead of picking a specific quality to be recognised for, I picked the Fate-locked option, because none of the quality descriptors quite seemed to fit her personality. What exactly does that option change in terms of subsequent PoSI development, does anyone know?

40

Well, common uses of them are to boost Watchful to raise Scholar of the Correspondence or speed up tough expeditions (finding the Nadir, for example) by allowing you to choose the swifter options safely. High stats may also be handy to finish a tedious Making Your Name section that you aren’t enjoying.
