It’s this for me. I’ve enjoyed the Contrarian’s seasonal appearances – FotZ in particular was great, and I’ve read echoes from Hallowmas and the envoy heist (as he is not ambassador for me) that are also lovely – but none of them are things that happened because he was mayor, just things that happened during his term that he therefore took part in. We’ve got a good amount of his character, but I also voted for him because of his plans. The mayor card’s hooks were great (hiding from Ministry officials, unknown weekend business), so I am disappointed that it didn’t even really get a mention at all after that.[/quote]
Agreed completely. As much as I enjoyed the Ceremony, I was also quite disappointed as it was the first year since establishment of the Election when the Christmas Fate story had no connection with the Mayor or their plans. Doubly disappointing personally since it was also the only time when a candidate I supported actually won, and a character with some of the best, most engaging and endearing writing in the game as far as I am concerned.
Let us hope that it wasn’t the last we’ve heard from the Contrarian. August now and forever!
