Is there something I can do to make the Card-crafting easier and/or faster? Sending Coins and Surprise Boxes to Parabuteo? I have the Proscribed materials to get a Card, but not the necessary SMEN level; to reach the secrets of the Isles the shedding of most wordly possessions seems required, so they won't be of much use.

Easier, yes, probably. sending coins and surprise boxes will give them more resources, funding any echo intensive routes, or compensating them for their time. After all, two such routes are the seeker's 1-in-5 chance of an enigma for 77 appaling secrets, [abet with a lower chance of loss of an extant enigma on failure], and the truthbreaker turbine, which gives, assuming the range averages in the middle, 4 enigmas for 312.5 echoes in uncanny incunabula. Faster? not so much- the slow parts are twofold. Get the 7 enigmas, which being willing to bleed echoes can save a bit of time on, but 7.5 echoes is, what, 5 actions, and get 2542 proscribed materials, which it cannot help with at least. Thankfully, the second will usually be faster than the first.

That said, I'm sure none of us would be annoyed by gifts of surprise packages and transferable currency. This is saying it doesn't help that much with the process, not that they wouldn't be nice to have anyways.

EDIT: Nyarllathotep requested the card from me, and I provided it to... him? xem? her? it's always hard to tell with seekers, between the rags and haggard complexion, and more for one with such a neathy name as that. Well, regardless, I hope it helps Xem on Xyr way.

Where I've got the list, if I'm not missing anybody: Dr~Strangeyoung, Hobnail, Taam~Amaat, Lolwolfking, The~Angry~Pirate, Littler~The

I've sent a card off to Dameon Grey; good luck out there!

As regards the speed of manufacture-- essentially, the restriction is action count more than echo count (theoretically it could be boosted by buying Proscribed Materials straight up, but that's 2567.42e/card, which is Somewhat Unfeasible). The most helpful things would probably be Sudden Insights as Truthbreaker Insurance and Coins as there's no action/opportunity cost on accepting them, but even that's not a huge productivity boost, and it won't be long* before I burn all my material possessions for warmth on the trip NORTH. Grateful for anything sent my way, of course, but don't worry too much about it, hah.

*I'll be taking a break from card-production briefly to knock out another candle or two soon, but I won't be going NORTH at least until marriage options are back. Hopefully I can churn out a few more in that time.

I would also appreciate a card, as I am determined to get Destin's candle via Torment (it's the only way that fits with the flavor text, darn it!), but I won't quite make it before the end of the Christmas season if I continue at 1 level/week.

Social invitations of all kinds welcome, especially games of chess and deadly sparring!

Also happy to help with nightmares, send sips of Cider, and plant battle.

I received a Card. Thank you. It will be put into use. I will be back... some part of me will, at least.

(What items I should get rid of? All the categorized ones apart from Curiosities? Is the wiki accurate?)

Please do not send SMEN, cat boxes, or Affluent Reporter requests. All other social actions are welcome.

Are you a Scarlet Saint? Send a message my way to be added to the list.

The normal source for cards doesn't manifest until 29. OFC, you could wait a month from free cards, but... 21 isn't really that close.

Lord Henry Tigerdrawers-Pip: Best of luck to you in your time of suffering. Winking Isle has no mercies.

With that card complete and my enigma supply temporarily exhausted, I'm going to be taking a brief break from making cards to make a candle, and then possibly be made a candle. I'll be back to it once that's concluded, though, hopefully shouldn't be too long.

I just hit SMEN 21! I need a calling card if someone has a spare (I hate to ask, I know how suffering works).

I haven't the foggiest idea who is at the top of the list, might I suggest a Google Doc or something similar? I've sent a Card to... someone, I do not think they are at the top of the list. I will make amends for this as soon as I get a few Enigmas and can figure out who is next.

th8827 was at the top of the list, and had no card, so I sent that seeker one. Now the delay for next card. Wish me luck.

I politely request that when you hit 29, you grind up the resources for a card of your own, and pass this one on. You don't have to, but it'd help the other people in line get through sooner.
