Robbing the Brass Embassy with Renown

Anyone had a go at (failing at) robbing the Brass Embassy since the conversion? It used to wipe your Connected: Hell and send you directly to jail, but what happens now?

I had literally been waiting for this for months. I had a ridiculously large amount of Connected: Hell, and failing the Brass Embassy theft is the only way to get into New Newgate (after the first time, anyway) without increasing your Criminal Record.
Speaking of which, for the love of God Failbetter, please add some extremely difficult but not Fate-locked way to lower that Record, or at least a more reasonable way to get into the prison. It is ridiculous. Add some option to bribe Constables with 7 Favours to lower it by one change point, or to get into the prison without a stain on your record. Hell, even spending Connected: The Masters on this would be more acceptable than nothing. Multiple storylines require you to get into the prison, and that should not be punished permanently. Even Weeping Scars are more erasable than this!

it was horrific, destructive, expensive, and quite all encompassing.
But, yes, if you are very, VERY careful, and spend the better part of $50 in fate, you can prevent anything permanent from being done, other then the chains.
It'll be multiple years for me to recover everything I lost, but not quite as many years as I was already playing... almost, but not quite...

I did it on two characters with renown 50. They both kept that renown.
