It'd be nice if cashing in gifts just didn't cost an action at all, really. Even if you would have to click a million times to cash in 26 gifts of scorn, it wouldn't take four hours to do

Would anyone care to exchange a glass of teeth?

I'll confess to finding it just a little bit irritating that to cash in, say, 26 gifts of scorn takes 26 actions, especially when you can't click out of the card or you lose it. It would be more soothing on the soul to be able to cash them in at 5 or 10 at a time, as well as individually.



+ the initial action, you can hop out after to avoid the finish action

@Omegasavant: I would love to. Should I send one to you now?

I am looking to exchange glasses of teeth, butter-covered chess pieces, and pink-painted cats. As well as possible some of the cheaper Fate-costing ones. Please PM me if you are interested.

Big EDIT: Thanks to Firebird766 and Kevin Wagner, I now have everything I've asked about. smile

Towards the end of the Feast, if someone still really wants to exchange non-Fated gifts but unable to find partners, PM me and I'll see if I can assist you.

Please do not send me monstrous invitations tinged with the inks of the undernight or Boxed Cats. (I rotate my Starveling list, so it might take me a while to reach your name. I haven't forgotten anyone!)

It is impossible to like this statement enough.

The first to send me a glass of teeth shall receive one from me in kind! All other gifts are appreciated, but I'm new so I can only send back a glass of teeth. Sending me any nex gift will earn my eternal gratitude, and I'll glady accept any chess-type or menace reduction requests you send in the future smile.

Hmm, looks like someone heard our complaints about spending actions to cash in gifts with Lilac. It only seems to require 1 action now for the card activation, then individual exchanges are 0 actions.

I'm happy to swap Singed Playing Cards and/or Glasses of Teeth with anyone (either a direct swap or one for the other).

Ladies and gentlemen who have been generous enough to have their urchins or dogsbodies deliver a gift to me, look to your doorstep (or inquire with your butler). You will find a little something in return.

I now wish to declare my interest in a mutual gifting of Nex-locked items, like-for-like, with trustworthy individuals up to a combined total of 100 Nex.

I've just received a Glass of Teeth from Megate (@Ruvixur on Twitter), but I can't send one back in return!

I can't add a friend with the name "Megate" as it says the user doesn't exist. And if I try to add "Ruvixur", then the area containing my friend's list becomes black (no success not error message is seen).


Megate/Ruvixur, if you have any suggestions how to add you to my friends list, please let me know, as I'd like to return the favor!

Hex, I can send you a Glass of Teeth, but when I tried to add Hex to my list of Fallen London friends "Hex" came up "User cannot be found."

Is this why I ended up with a glass more than I expected?

Good Evening all.

I too would like to join in on the gift-giving circle, as my Constant Companion is more of a Scrabble player than a vake-slayer. I'd be happy to exchange magenta felines, containers of calcification and Grease's Pieces with anyone who would like them. I'm a bit short on the fate at the moment, but am rich in patience, if nothing else. PM me if you are interested, I'll be happy to initiate.

Cheers,

-Safety Dance

I would be pleased to exchange a Tanned Mask with someone. (Or, if you would prefer, I can receive a Tanned Mask and show my appreciation by sending you a Gold-Spiked Rosary instead.)

Please PM first, as I have a limited amount of Fate/Nex available.

Edit: And that was quick. Thank you for the gift, HighPriest.

I have heard of the problem you're talking about and that if Ruvixur changes the name of their StoryNexus account, the issue might resolve itself and the new name might become addable to the Friends lists of others.

That said, I haven't had this problem myself so this is all just secondhand information.
