Looks like I joined Twitter - because you needed to have a Twitter account to play, back in the day! - in December 2010.

That means it's nearly my fifth anniversary, aw. Thank you, failbetter, for enriching my life for all this time <3

I've joined up for almost a year now! I found Fallen London on a games site I used to visit, but I didn't start playing in earnest until I got my hands on Sunless Sea. I've never looked back since.

I'll accept any actions, except loitering and Affluent Photographer (will accept dupes).

This is, roughly, my 1 year aniversary. I've already visited just about all the standard game areas, and i've gotten my own little grinding obsessions (who has the most tears of the bazaar at the moment, btw?) for lack of anything better to do.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.
On psudeo-hiatus. Will be inactive and active and fluctuate without warning.

My first echo is from 01 April, 1891 though I believe I started playing several months before that as I believe I was there (and somewhat established) for Feast of the Exceptional Rose

So somewhere just under three years

Almost exactly a year ago. I remember showing up at the end of Hallowmas, randomly picking a lame destiny and telling Huffam to bugger off. Ah, those were the days.
I've come a long way since then, but the people who's been playing for 3+ years fascinate me. I wonder, does it get boring? Do you still play 24/7, trying not to lose a single action?

I believe the answer is March of this year, just a tad too late to enjoy the Feast of the Exceptional Rose.

Ignacious, the Fluid Professor, he will accept most social invitations, including boxed cats and affluent photographers (but only betrayals), though he is absent-minded and might take more time than entirely necessary. He apologizes.

Boring might be the wrong the word, but before we had Exceptional Stories, you just ran out of useful things to do at some point. Just before Hallowmas, I've come back from a four month break. That was my longest break ever, though I had a few shorter ones over the years. But the world itself - no, that never gets boring!

I never did that in the first place.

I joined during the last Feast of the Exceptional Rose, in February, so it's been, what, nine, ten months? Nine, ten very thrilling months. Fallen London is the very first browser game to actually convince me to spend money on it.

I have played nearly every day since I found Fallen London. Unless I haven't had access to a computer or the internet and then I want to be back in the Neath as soon as possible. There is just something about FL that holds my attention and I love being here.

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.

A handful of months. Some full days of research to sate a curiosity the pace of the story would not allow of me. Some more full days of getting friends into it and surreptitiously marrying one for the pretty stat bonuses.

Like Ciel, I'm on almost every day at least once, and even then I feel bad about not using up my actions as soon as they're filled up again. The Neath is a fascinating place both as a game and as a setting, and every little piece I collect about it makes me delight in it all the more.

I'll take a stab at answering that.

I don't play as religiously as I used to--except when new content becomes available! :-) Nowadays, I'm content to play just a few candles worth of actions a day--it feels like hanging out at a friend's house; odd, untidy perhaps, but familiar and fun.

March 1889 / 2011.

I haven't played religiously, and yes, it gets boring at times. I'll sometimes lose interest and wander away, but it always seems to pull me back. Especially the Festivals.

You can tell I'm invested, though - the most notable time I stopped playing was when the first Destinies came out. I was decidedly not happy with the Destiny I got - the Liberation of Night was so depressing, I stopped playing for a few months.

More tellingly, being the sort of person I am, I keep wanting to try my hand at writing a Fallen London story - I just really don't have the time.

DragonRidingSorceress is an Author of good standing. Mostly good standing. She's happy to accept any social action except Photographer and Loitering, but requests warnings before duping/poisoning/etc.

Seeker of Names is a... being with an obsession. They're willing to accept all invitations.
One who seeks to know all that is and may be. One who dances in the silence of the void. One whose fantasies make the reality come alive.

This thread piqued my interest. I knew I had been playing for a few years off and on (I went on hiatus several times due to Life Stuff), but I wasn't sure exactly how long. So, I did a little poking around in my old Twitter account.

Turns out the earliest tweet I have that mentions Fallen London dates to November 4th, 2010. Five years and a week, exactly.

I started playing in August 2012. I've had my ups and downs, but I've largely played every action everyday. You couldn't tell this from looking at my account though. It's as if I've hardly progressed at all.

This is because I play this game as if I was Penelope, Odysseus's wife, weaving the burial shroud of his father to delay pushy suitors. By day I make progress, but by night I unravel my work piece by piece. They say my faith is misplaced, that the man is drowned. They say the traveller will not return. But for three years now I have kept faithful, weaving away eternity as for a reckoning that cannot be postponed. Not indefinitely. Not for long.

Just over three years, it seems - or alternatively, a couple of months shorter than NiteBrite, but never as devotedly smile. Much less intense about using actions than I used to be - and my alts are on long-term hiatus; just too much of a time sink smile.
