Was it intentional to design the renown gain actions such that only Watchful factions will permit achievement of Renown 50?
Theoretically, you can get to Renown 50 for any specific faction, but not necessarily all of them.
With POSI specialization (+15 to a chosen stat, but non-changeable at this time), best Fate gear, best profession gear, a destiny, and a mood, you can make any one stat high enough to allow for Renown 50. (of course, this will also need multiple uses of a Mood card - since you only have an hour to use it, and can't store Favours for conversion beyond 7 at a time).
I don't think we're *supposed* to be able to get to Renown 50 at all (except in very special cases). I see the higher Renown levels (above 40) as indications of very high pre-conversion Connected level. As FBG said when the system was introduced, people with extraordinary pre-existing levels of Connected will have extraordinary level of Renown.

Yes it is, though it may be too late to max out urchins.

So... what happens when you abandon (lose Closest to) a faction that has switched to Reknown from Connected. Does anyone know? Do you lose ALL Reknown or just all Favours?
You only lose all the favours, the only way to lose renown currently is to pick a specific option while seeking Mr Eaten's name(and it says that it will destroy all your connections, renown and favours).

What's the best way to grind them, by the way? I can't find anything besides Speaking Softly, and that's not very efficient.
It is just speak softly, they're not easy to grind. But if you don't have a connected pet and stay in veilgarden, you get a common card that gives you a good boost.

There is also an option in Spite with Airs of London at 25 or less. Play Groundsman for the Urchins - I think it only 1cp versus the 3cp for Speaking Softly. Though if you are using airs to try and get Docks connections I think it is worth knowing. You can also get the best widow cp between 33 and 67 and Constables (in Watchmaker's Hill) at 76 and over.

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.

If you decide to...chop off your own head, will having it on your character add Gawain's Candle to your inventory(while removing it would get rid of Gawain's candle in your inventory) or will it not? Im guessing it will simply add the candle to the inventory but I need someone else who knows to tell me this just in case.
[spoiler]Having it equipped will grant you +1 to the St Gawain's Candle quality, like a stat or a story quality. There won't be a candle that appears and disappears in your inventory.[/spoiler]

Do you think now is good time to grind Urchin / Constable / Hell connections in order to get some Renown after faction conversion to new system?
