Since many of us still have a ton of confession invitations to plough through, it occurred to me it might help to have a list of priority confessions.
That is to say, someone who already has 500 Spirit of Hallowmas may not care that much about having their invitation accepted. Alternatively, someone who is on the cusp of 500 (or 1000, or some other milestone) would probably care a good deal more.
So post below if you are one of those people on the cusp, and I (and presumably others) will try to make sure you get there.
UPDATE: Here's a short list of people close to 500: Det Jack of Chimes NathanielSterben (needs 10)

Update: 750 achieved! Thank you so much to Discerning Chemist and Lady Rosaline for helping me reach my goal and the ever-handsome Ginneon Thursday for starting this thread. This Hallowmas was exhausting, but now I feel so accomplished!
Now I just need to try to recall what I was doing before this whole madness started. edited by Vivienne Redgrave on 11/8/2015

I'm afraid that after quite a while of grinding to confess, enough buried requests have been unearthed from the depths of my inbox that I have no hope of doing them all even without consigning anything. As I may not have enough time to even consign all the confessions I currently have, I've cancelled all outgoing requests and declined the invitations I had not yet accepted. My apologies to any who this may hurt, and specifically to Lady Taimi Felix because I declined your invitation just about fifteen minutes ago before seeing this thread whoops.

You listened to Gnostechnician confess their errors of whimsy. You've gained 4 x Spirit of Hallowmas (new total 502).
Finished! Everything else is a bonus now, thanks.

I have hit 500, which is not too shabby for my first Hallowmas, I think! So please feel free to prioritise me last. (Also, many thanks to Kivrin Neverwinter and Malthaussen for their witty flood of menace-inducing social actions, and Nitebrite for his/her awesome list. Things definitely would not have been possible without you!)
I apologise for Withdrawing from some confession invitations from others. Some were duplicates, others just couldn't be fulfilled (didn't have the right qualities for some reason. Dunno why). Know that I tried several times over the course of the week to respond before I finally withdrew on Friday. (Algol immediately comes to mind; there are probably others...)
I tend to have a "do unto others what others do unto you" policy when it comes to Hallowmas invitations; I usually betray when betrayed, consign confessions when mine are consigned, etc., so responding to me will help me figure out what you'd prefer, but responding to my invites for that purpose should, of course, be considered less important than tending to somebody who needs the extra Spirit. edited by Sestina Valdis on 11/8/2015 edited by Sestina Valdis on 11/8/2015 edited by Sestina Valdis on 11/8/2015

I still wonder about that too. If person 'A' consigns or buries a confession from person 'B', does 'A' get to use it next year [consume, etc] EVEN IF they are betrayed by 'B' ? I presume 'B' does not get to use the trust 'A' had in them. That would seem strange. It's as you describe, confirmed. Using confessions to trust let's you devour, not the other player. edited by NiteBrite on 11/7/2015

Lady, you have my most sinceer apologies, you are still in my backlog. I'll rather quickly go through and dismiss those who have volenteered a lack of priority, and see if you come up...
Yes, I have discovered you.
I'll be able to take care of your request in about an hour Lady Felix. edited by ICountFrom0 on 11/8/2015

I am two confessions away from 500. If anyone has a request from me, I would be pretty thankful if they accepted it soon.

Huh, if all of Delmar Tramontane's outgoing confessions are accepted then he'll just barely have 1,000 Spirit.

Jack of Chimes is very close to 500, please prioritise him!
Shalinoth will reach 495 if the last dozen or so accept, but he will need FATE / Destiny to make 500. Not sure if I'll do that.
Jack of Smiles is a villain and a cur. He will probably just betray your character since he's reached 250 with no hopes of going to 500. Low priority. Heck, you can even refuse to answer him knowing what you now know, if your Notability is at risk.

My Spirit is at 474 - I will need 7 acceptances to reach 500 and I have 26 confession requests awaiting acceptance. So I am politely requesting assistance!
I will revise my post if I reach 500, after which point you may cheerfully ignore my requests. I will be discreet with your confessions if you are able to accept. Many thanks!
EDIT: Huzzah! Achieved my goal of 500! I will express my gratitude by continuing to poison and dupe those who require it....which is probably the oddest way that I have expressed gratitude in quite some time. edited by Irene on 11/7/2015

Working on getting mine all done, so I don't have the right to ask, buuuuut... I'd really like to hit 750 spirit. By my calculations, and assuming I finish up on time, I can do that if ONE MORE PERSON accepts an outstanding confession request. I have twenty currently waiting on responses. One acceptance would be awesome! After which I can be deprioritized, it's completely fine. /crossing my fingers for some Hallowmas luck.
Edit: I MADE IT! Thank you so much to the people who helped me get there! Feel free to decline any outstanding invitations if you're pressed for time. edited by Kivrin Neverwinter on 11/7/2015

Ah I know ebzfan. I just asked them to accept your confession Their inbox is overflowing, but yours was within sight. If you are at 497, then you just need to consign that confession to the Bazaar for +4 spirit and that should take you over the 500 mark to 501. Hope that helps. edited by NiteBrite on 11/8/2015

Hay Det, you just got uncovered with minutes left...
You confess the deeds you committed to attain your high station while Andrey Kuznetsov (Det in Fallen London) listens patiently. The night has passed by the time you're done. You feel lighter, somehow. You've lost a quality: Nightmares. You've lost a quality: Wounds. Trust Det (1 - You have shared something)
Here's hoping you can consign that and make up more of the gap.
