Does it no longer work? We spent the fate but could only draw connected cards or the sommelier?

Maintaining a controlling interest in my soul requires a pretty constant negotiation between the various shareholder interests. Thankfully the Fingerkings 23% control makes a pretty good foil to unite the other factions enough to get to 51%.

You can't get him with a Favourable Circumstance. He's under "Attend to Matters of Society and Scandal", although you can only use that option when you already have at least one point of notability and your making waves is high enough to increase your notability.

"Beating the RNG" is an unwinnable battle. It's better to see it as a force of nature, or like the weather... grumble and move on.  And yep, on second thought I could've used one or two lines more.

I'm trying not to be rude here to you but I'm not saying it was a problem. I'm saying we thought it would work one way and when it didn't I asked around if I had been confused. Now I've had two people basically come off as saying not only was I confused but it was basically wrong of me to be confused because my wife should just be putting in more effort. Well I'm very, seriously certain that I did not tell your wife to put in more effort, or that you should not be confused. For proof, just read my two lines again, please. Since I can't double-quote (no two quotes in one post) I'll just say it again: There are A Great Many Things in this game which basically depend on you having to draw one specific card when you need it to further some thing or another. The Amanuensis is just one example of a Great Many More Such. It's a game mechanic, period. And if you don't wanna bother with that regarding Notability, then just never let it leave you completely after having gotten it, meaning after you have drawn that one, very first, necessary card to get it.
See, now it took a great many more words. But I thought I was already clear enough in the two lines above?
Edit: typos.One more reason to use less words

It's still there for me under "Attend to Matters of Society and Scandal" at my Lodgings when I look on the desktop version. I'm not sure if the option is available in the mobile version.

I do it all the time in the desktop version because I don't want to block a slot with the card. No fate required (but a point of notability is necessary, of course).
