The election is here! Exciting times! But there are still more mundane questions to be answered, and here's the place for them!

Hansom cabs - after their inventor, a Mr J. A. Hansom. Not that the cab drivers aren't handsome, of course.

I recommend not selling too much in the beginning and only selling if you need the money. Echoes are the least useful way of holding wealth here, since you rarely use them outside of the Bazaar.

There are also some things (like bundles of ragged clothing) I thought I would never use and ended up having to buy more at the Bazaar.
There's little worth buying anyway. A full set of max stat items (except shaggy goats) will cost you something like 3000 echoes; a large sum to a new player, sure, but they'll get that in the course of leveling up. Sell things only when in immediate need of money, and don't buy stat items unless they're the best.

&quotSet profile as private&quot in the &quotMyself&quot tab should keep you hidden from players who don't already have you as their contact. If you want to block players who already have you as a contact I suggest asking them to remove you from their contact lists. If another player is harassing you, Failbetter Games would surely be willing to intervene on your behalf, but I'm not sure if that applies to players who merely send moderate amounts of social actions without offensive messages included.
You could also go hide in some area/activity that can't be reached by social actions. But that's a bit inconvenient. And I don't know if it works for things like Christmas cards.

Thank you. No angry message was sent, but I just wished to not have to deal with a player who ignored repeated requests to stop sending me mobs and sent me another one anyway. That's just really unsportsman-like. Is there really no way to get them to stop without having to bother the devs or going out to zee till this blasted election is over?

The Exceptional Stories on the Fate page don't appear to be in chronological order any more. Actually, I'm not sure what order they're in -- apparently not alphabetical either. Can anyone remember the stories in the Heart's Blood season? I seem to have missed out on the epilogue.
The Exceptional Stories' names and dates are all on the wiki.

Most things are used in some storylets or other. On the other hand, most things are safe to sell because you can get more later. There are very few items that are both very hard to get AND useful for stories.
One rule of thumb you can use - if there's a repeatable storylet that gives you something, you can sell it. Another rule of thumb - if you could buy something at the Bazaar, it's safe to sell it.

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.
