Watchful -> gives London's Nerves: Requirements (i) 1 Ubergoat, OR (ii) 21 Scholar of the Correspondence, OR (iii) 100 Chess Matches won and 40 Boatman's Opponent
Dangerous -> gives London's Sinew: Requirements (i) 100 Influence, OR (ii) 50 Advancing the Liberation of Night, OR (iii) 50 Sanguine Ribbons
Persuasive -> gives London's Blood: Requirements (i) all 5-card lodgings, OR (ii) Committed, OR (iii) 15 in each Having Recurring Dreams quality (expect for Death by Water, which needs 10)
Shadowy -> gives London's Marrow: Requirements (i)1,000,000 Pennies, OR (ii) all 3200-scrap relicker items OR (iii) 50 Renown: Constables and 50 Renown: Criminals
We all know someone is going to go for all 4 of these. Who's gonna be crazy enough to do it?
I WOULD, but griding to 15 Notability 4 times would be such a annoyance to grind, and I don't know how to do it well. Plus the changing POSI thing. All for something that might not even do anything.

People have ground for Cider and Heptagoats. This is no different - a crazy long-term goal for people at the cap who have nothing left to do. And from the person who cheated to get there we know that it does something, although it's far from impressive for the amount of effort.

Of course many will go for it! Even if it's frigging expensive to get get Notability to 15 plus another 12/Fate. I'll probably start working on it, slowly, after I prepare for SMEN after the Feast. Meh, to many precious Tears which are needed for an interesting tattoo!

I'm going for it, but not at the expense of some other opportunities (so I'm not grinding this 100% of my actions).
To bad that this Notability grind is in direct conflict with my Tears of the Bazaar grind...

I'll also go for it. If I see this correctly I already have the qualities/items to go for all of the *London's [...]*-qualities, so it comes down to overcapping each attribute to 215.
I'm with dov, though, and won't do it exclusively because I'll either go mad or lose interest in the game. We'll see how long it takes, I'm not in a hurry.

Holy excrement, Batman 0_0
I assumed it was as simple as 215 stats all around, but the extra requirements are quite extreme. I would have gone for it, but - to be honest - those requirements put me off for role-play reasons . . . it peeves me off to even have one "Advancing the Liberation", let alone to even try and aim for 50, and likewise I'd rather not get Criminals renown any higher than I already have achieved. I imagine others like "Boatman's Opponent" will be tough for those who role-play as having never died, and . . . it's odd?
Like, I can understand having big requirements, as someone who does achieve all of those very much deserves a special title! At the same time it feels like story and gameplay segregation, ignoring reasons why some people might play and forcing them to choose between character/gameplay? Then again, it's extremely end-game so maybe most end-game players care less about role-play? I don't know . . .
Huge respect to whomever does go after this, though  Good luck!

The requirements are OR, not AND. So it tries to prevent the segregation.

Who's going for it? Not me. The grindy part of the game is the part that occasionally makes me want to stop playing. Don't care about goats, cider, EPA, or any of that jazz. When I hit a point where all there is to do is grind then that's when I zail off into the zunset. Er, sunset. Oh wait. Sunless... Yeah.

I could go for it. I have at least one of the requirements for 3 of them (of course the one I haven't got is for my existing specialisation).
So I either need to arrange things to get 2 protegees for 100 Influence or start doing the duel to death and winning 50 times!
But the Notability thing is tricky, I only just got to 15 during the election, and I can't afford the Fate option. That is a lot of grinding MW which isn't much fun.
Also I'm a seeker and am at the point where I can get to Winking Isle if I sell everything but then I would need to replace the relicker items for the Shadowy requirement.
So I'm not going to hurry but will probably think seriously about doing it.

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.

I will go for it, but it's going to take a long long time as I'm immensely inefficient at Notablity gaining and I don't have the Fate to spend. But I'm not yet ready to be a seeker and I want to see my ambition through.
Status:
Watchful -> gives London's Nerves: Requirements (i) 1 Ubergoat, (ii) 21 Scholar of the Correspondence, (iii) 100 Chess Matches won and 40 Boatman's Opponent (Ubergoat and SotC21 and Boatman 40...so u could do the chess matches for fun? - eithe way, this is done)
Dangerous -> gives London's Sinew: Requirements (i) 100 Influence, (ii) 50 Advancing the Liberation of Night, (iii) 50 Sanguine Ribbons (a problem. Not sure which I'll try: maybe 100 influence?)
Persuasive -> gives London's Blood: Requirements (i) all 5-card lodgings, (ii) Committed, (iii) 15 in each Having Recurring Dreams quality (expect for Death by Water, which needs 10) (done - have Committed)
Shadowy -> gives London's Marrow: Requirements (i)1,000,000 Pennies, (ii) all 3200-scrap relicker items (iii) 50 Renown: Constables and 50 Renown: Criminals (Uuuuuuugh. I've only one of the 3200 items and I poured most of my cash into the Ubergoat. And I haven't found a way to grind or even improve Constables - getting Criminals 50 won't be as bad since I'm now at 42. But UGGGGGH)

I would go for it myself, but I have no idea how to grind 15 notability ONCE, let alone 4 times.

Oh! So for example the "Shadowy -> gives London's Marrow: Requirements (i)1,000,000 Pennies, (ii) all 3200-scrap relicker items (iii) 50 Renown: Constables and 50 Renown: Criminals"
I wouldn't need all of them to get that Shadowy quality, but just one of those three criteria? That actually makes it a lot more doable and something I'd be willing to pursue Thank you for explaining that!
While I'm bugging people with this . . . I have to ask, where/how does one uncover the option/storylet to gain those qualities? Like, I already have 200 in all stats, and - such as for Persuasive - I already have one of the criteria. Do I also need to get the 15+ cap before anything appears?

I’m totally going for these. I’m going to see if I can max out Renown and SotC and everything while I’m at it, since I need to overcap my stats anyway. I don’t necessarily have to drop everything to do this, if I’m okay with taking a few years. Which I am, since I see no urgency.
I’m also going to go for the specific requirements that suit my character (which basically means it suits my personal morality). Almost all of them are things I’ve been slowly doing anyway.

Wait, is reaching Renown 50 even possible for all stats right now? That necessitates getting 294 in each respective stat, and I’m not sure that is achievable for all of them even with Moods, overcapping, and the best gear.

I'm going for these too. Eventually. Somehow, London's Blood seems the easiest to achieve, so it's -one- place to start!

I have two requirements, could easily knock out a third (an Ubergoat), and have no objection to getting the fourth, but... i'm also currently grinding Cider. And I still need Erzulie's. So it won't happen before I do both of those things.
On the plus side, that gives me a ton of time to grind Criminals and Constables, since I'll be spending the other Shadowy requirements in the course of getting those two things.

With the ability to change specializations and keep the overcapped stats, it is now possible to reach Renown 48 for each stat without Moods, with the right gear setup. Moods will easily push the limit to 50.

I'll definitely be chasing this goal, but like everyone else I'm in no great hurry. I have almost no fate-locked bdr stuff & thanks to the best part of a year spent only logging on to visit the nadir I'm not even stat capped right now, so it'll be a long long time before I'm done. Hopefully by the time I get really going with it notability grinding will have become less tedious. Fingers crossed I won't get too worn out with the clickathon.

With a Mood and overcapping, you can raise Renown to 52 or 53 (depending on the stat).
The problem, of course, is you'll need to draw multiple Mood cards. This by itself can take years.
