This is something that I intend to achieve, but I won't be starting serious work on it until next year.
My current in-game goals are Renown and a Noman tattoo. Paramount Presence is my current front-runner for what to do after both of those are checked off, but the FLR project might release something else in the meantime that I would rather pursue first (like updating Light Fingers!). I also want to have high Notability coming in to Hallowmas, so I'd rather not be spending it all in the month leading up to it. I would like to acquire another 2000 scrap by New Year's, since that's the easiest way to pass the requirement for my current POSI specialization, but that's definitely a background task.

I hope that:
a) One bad apple didn't just spoil this for all of us.
b) Only the qualities are needed to trigger PP. Holding onto 15 in one stat is hard enough. Trying to keep 3 while trying for the 4th would be stressful.

I'm going for it, but I can't predict how long it will take me.
All my stats are in the 190s (I never spent much time in the Nadir) and I have massive stacks of second chance items, so reaching 200 is not a problem. I have BDR 29, and I will pay Fate for the specialization switches, easing the Notability grind somewhat (currently at 9).
Persuasive: I'm Committed.
Dangerous: I've already started sending out Calling Cards to boost my Influence (currently at 54).
Watchful: I have SotC 16, so I think I can reach 21 with overcapped Watchful and a Mood card.
 Nope, can't. Übergoat, then...
Shadowy: I'm currently worth 27321.75 Echoes, so I guess I can sell off enough stuff to raise 10k Echoes, even though selling some items might hurt (I love to hoard).
I'm sure someone who's logged in all day and uses all their actions could do it within a few weeks, but I'm usually a more casual player. Still, this seems worth some extra effort... let's see what happens!

I'm definitely going for it, especially since all I really need is the Notability.

I'll definitely go for this eventually. First though I have to finish grinding Cider, spend a while on Winking Isle, then grind up a replacement Master's Blood just in case of De Gustibus.

I'm not going to advance the liberation of night, and I want my Is Someone There? Quality to be lower than 15 because GET OUT OF MY HEAD, CHARLES. This isn't for me.

Under each specialization, the list of items is apparently "pick one," not "complete all three."

When changing your specialisation, is it possible to go back to not having one? I've dragged my feet so far, because I feel like I've entered into quite enough weird intangible bargains with the bazaar. Even the birth mark bothers me enough that I'll probably seek Obscurity at some stage.

I'm goin for it, and I got 45 fate to skip the specilization changing grind. I already did the watchful one as soon as it came out.

As I understand it, changing your specialization means resetting to a non-specialized PoSI and then choosing one through the regular options. But as the whole point of this grind seems to be becoming a Paramount Presence, being unspecialized first wouldn't really change anything.

Are there any benefits to just achieving one, as opposed to all four?

You get a cool quality? There's no obvious use for them individually though. If there's anything you can do, nobody's found it.

So, I did some maths and found that even with a Mood I can't reach Watchful 300 without The Great Game or an Übergoat. So I guess I'll abandon SotC and go for the Übergoat option directly. Of course, this means I'll have to sell basically everything I own, but... gah, I think it's worth it! I haven't really done anything in FL ever since Flint, what do I need all this stuff for anyway? Also, since the 10k Echoes for Marrow aren't consumed I won't be left completely broke. And everything you can sell can be regained in time.
Yes, I value one rare quality more than all that junk.

Assuming I come up with an effective plan to grind out the requisite making waves I plan on doing this. Infact I'm already working on it.
So... anyone want to play some chess or a spar a bit? I could use the everything. I'm not afraid of dying. Just another chance to play some more chess.

Going for this as well. The (repeated) notability grind is going to be bit of a drag, but it's rather more approachable than the Cider grind in my opinion. A nice mid-to-long goal for endgame players!
I have all the non-stat bases covered except for Sinews (I may wish to get Veils Velvet for the Marrow, since that's much cooler than plain Echoes).
Is there any grindable way of advancing the Liberation of Night apart from Luminosity conversions? I'm not sure if I can easily raise Influence from 33 to 100...

I'm aiming for it, but I only *just* got my first stat to 200, so there's no doubt someone will beat me to it. Can't wait to see the first Legitimate Paramount Presence, though!

I'm planning to go for it, but I have a few things I want to get from the Nadir first, and like a few others I'm also planning on finishing my Cider grind and going to Winking Isle, which may well come before I get those Nadir items, at the rate I'm going.
