BONUS: THE GREAT RATMAS CHRISTMAS CHEER ENDEAVOUR
It's possible to send Christmas cards to anyone you want, wherever they happen to be, regardless of whether or not you're acquainted. This Ratmas, I feel we should send some holiday cheer to a poor, neglected, forgotten soul, whose name is often misremembered, who bears the weight of many menaces, day-by-day. I am, of course, talking about none other than Mr Eaten.
Send the poor fella your Christmas cards. The thought's what counts. If you don't have any cards, that's okay! It doesn't have to be today. As long as you don't postpone it indefinitely, everything's fine.
So Spacemarine9 posted this in his Ratmas Thread, but I thought it was such a good idea it deserved its own.
You see, Christmas is a time to be a decent folk to all those in need. And I know there are a lot of you who does not want to get involved with a certain search when it returns. But for those of you who know this guy's position it must be awful. So I say even if you want nothing to do with him, think about sending a card with a little bit of Christmas cheer his way. Include a nice heartwarming message or something. Because noone needs Christmas cheer more than someone who's had all kinds of horrible things happen to them.

I will accept all actions, though I hold the right to refuse for my own reasons. However, if you explain WHY you send me a harmful action like Loitering or Dantes,And I feel the reason good, I will consider it more. http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Kylestien
Persuasive patron. You want a lesson, send me a message asking for one.

Not to my knowledge. It was a regular Box of 100 Wonders.
I hope he spends it on some Lethean Leaves. It doesn't look like his Ambition is going anywhere...

What a good idea! And he's not "somewhere else", so I just sent off a sip with best wishes for his health.

Good point.

I still have a wedding invite outstanding to Mr Eaten. Alas. (But now I sent him some rats for . . . company? Sustenance? Something, anyway.)

Is there any record of that anywhere?
Just I'd absolutely love to see what he said

Right here. The usual, doom, gloom, death, pain, etc.
I did try ordering a rat attack on both Mr. Iron and Mr. Eaten, but they haven't taken the bait yet. I'm picturing a bunch of rats jumping down a well to go get him.

IDEA: Lets try to send him only watchful cards, and see if we can make his watchful increase to 1000. Its displayed so we should see it!

Everybody deserves a little Christmas cheer, and that poor unhappy fellow could do with some cheering up.

I sent him seven cards. Seven. Cards. Seven. Seven. Ta ha.
I must say, I am terribly intrigued by the prospect of sending him 77 cards. Fate costs be d___ed.

@an_ocelot: Have you offered him cider? Maybe that will bring him back from the dead! Or maybe every well in the Neath will suddenly have a slight cidery flavor to it.

I am sadly confident that it will remain unaccepted just like the wedding invite. But it would be amazing if I were wrong and I would certainly tell you all ASAP.

August is a misguided soul who probably needs his curiosity stomped on before it's too late.
(The angry mog card seemed very appropriate, given the recipient).

Why not a few rats for the poor soul? I'm sure he's hungry!
So, I just type "Mr Eaten" into my Contacts bar, and I can send cards to him? And does that apply to other Masters? Or even a certain tiger? (He can block our rats, but our cards?)

Anything that raises watchful cannot do so above 200. Something that sets watchful to a value, such as overlevelling through notability as a tier 2 PoSI, works fine. So they just set his watchful to 999 directly and not through a normal method in the game.
