(or 1893, if you prefer) 
Just realized that the Feast of the Rose should start tomorrow, shouldn't it? I haven't seen an announcement though...
-- Rupho Schartenhauer has killed a Master, well: most of it. Cortez the Killer has killed a Master, definitely. Deepdelver has become the progenitor of London's brightest star. It's... complicated. Dr. Kvirkvelia, gone NORTH on 23/12/1894.

This year we're pleased to offer you two new gifts: a Blemmigan Pedant (complete with pince-nez), and An Illicit Volume of Unexpectedly Racy Fungal-Themed Poetry - it's all the rage, you know.
Am I the only one who read this and thought, "50 Shades of Greyfields?"
I am?
Okay, just checking...

It does seem like the Feast gets a little bit more unfriendly to people who aren't spending Fate every year. It wold be nice to know what the Masquing caps in the Perfumed Garden are, so it's clear when you shouldn't bother to spend the entrance fee to get in anymore.
I can't answer the question in the second section, but the cap on Masquing for non-Fate gifts and small Fate gifts is actually higher this year--30 instead of 25. I think more options on the card give Masquing than last year, as well, though that I can't swear to.

Question: This is my first Feast of the Exceptional Rose, and I'd really like to wrap up the Clathermont storyline while its possible, but I don't see the "News at Clathermonts" story in Ladybones Road. Are there requirements I need to meet? (Currently at Entwined in the Intrigues... 8) edited by Arktor314 on 2/14/2015

Traditionally a mask is supposed to be worn on the face, and it is required for certain types of formal attire, but don't that fetter your creativity. A mask is also required during certain medical procedures as well to hinder the spread of certain airborne pathogens.

Do some of the companions that cost more than 30 Masquing also cost Fate? IE, you will have to spend fate to get to their masquing cost and also spend fate to obtain them?
No, they just effectively cost fate by requiring masquing higher than can be obtained without Fate.

So this year you have to spend MW to enter the perfumed garden? What gives?
I'm sure that in previous years the perfumed garden had its own storylet, so I am disappointed that you can only get there through the Feast of the Exceptional Rose storylet and use MW to do so. It was bad enough last year when they capped the rare success to get masquing but using MW just to get there makes it worse.
I'm just waiting for my candles to refill and then I might make one trip for now. It is too expensive to keep going back, I only just reground my Notability after getting some Masters Blood.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

Having to pay just to enter an area has always been really annoying. One of the reasons I don't visit Foreign Office much. Not sure why they did it for the pleasure gardens after two years of it working just fine. I was confused at first, since I could not find the storylet in the usual place and my MW is zero (gave up trying to maintain Notability a long ago), so even in enjoy the Feast the entrance was buried under a mountain of presents at the very bottom... Long story short annoying nerf is annoying. edited by Fhoenix on 2/14/2015
