If you choose to start over with some of your running battle kept, do you keep more of it the more advanced you are?
And do zee stories give more than successful quirk challenges?

So are there no new items? Or are they simply yet to be implemented?

I believe it cuts your progress in half and yes, they give 5 CP, while quirk challenges give 2. It's the Map Scrap option that is only worth it if you're worried you cannot pass a quirk challenge.

I love that the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner is implied to actually have "Dauntless" as her surname, via Chuffy McAvoy-Dauntless.
Also, a tip: getting a destiny will warp you back to London. You can save a small pile of actions by making it the last thing you do on the island.

Where are those two - The Temperance Campaigner and the Detective?
I remember not finding Jenny last year also, until some got soul here pointed the right direction for me.
What am I missing (again?!)

You just need to be patient and keep playing the main Festival options. It'll cycle the festival quality, and those options will turn up once it's in the correct range.

It's just confusing since unlike the regular Airs of London (or the Forgotten Quarter, etc.), the options' unlock requirements don't show us the needed range.

Thank you!
(I even did not find the option to return Jenny's Wimple, and missed that one out).
Right.

Being a swindler might be a tough job, but if you run for Mayor and do get elected after all, the change in lifestyle might do to you what law and order failed to do in the previous year. I imagine we will see more of that in the Cristmas story.
Wouldn't that be something to see - a nigh-immortal duelist, head agent of a neathy superpower, a veteran of infernal revolutions, a captain of a brass trireme - finally cracking under the vicissitudes of a political position within London's bureaucracy!
That would be one Kafkaesque regime 
Incidentally, both the Dauntless Campaigner and the Implacable Detective are growing ever more near and dear to my heart. The expedition looms on the horizon, and we definitely have a lot left to look forward to this year!

This has in fact been changed from recent years. The Sights at the Festival value for each storylet used to be displayed. Not sure I like this change...
It's displayed on your Profile though if you choose it as your Scrapbook quality.
The values themselves don't seem to have changed from previous years. For anyone who's interested, here's the list of Feast storylets:
[spoiler]Spy on a delivery for the Custodial Chef: 0-5
Dance with a Drownie: 0-33 (Map Scraps or Zee-Ztories)
Listen to the Drownies' songs: 0-33 (Tales of Terror or Zee-Ztories)
Offer your Strange Catch to the Drownies: 0-33 (Destiny)
"Oi! You stepped on my invisible rat!": 34-50
Accompany a passing crowd of drunken revellers: 34-66
Follow them to the well: 34-66
Escape the attentions of the Mary Lloyd: 51-66 (Hard-Earned Lessons)
Stoke an argument between the Custodial Chef and the Melancholy Curate: 67-75
Ask the Custodial Chef to prepare your Strange Catch: 67-100 (Wounds cure)
Give your Strange Catch to the Melancholy Curate: 67-100 (Nightmares cure)
Eat at the Custodial Chef's table: 67-100 (lowers Austere!)
Eat at the Curate's Table: 67-100 (lowers Hedonist!)
Gossip about the Mayor: 67-100 (new)
Take tea with the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner: 76-85 (new)
Attend the Implacable Detective's dinner: 86-100 (new)
Confront a Hooded Lady of Mysterious Provenance: 86-100
Drink with a Hooded Lady of Mysterious Provenance: 86-100
Offer a Hooded Lady your Strange Catch: 86-100 (Wreckers' Cove)[/spoiler]

Perhaps this means that Feducci will have more of a presence during the Feast of the Exceptional Rose next year?

Perhaps. Jenny was a Docks Lady, so the Festival of the Zee suited her. The paramour rumor may be leading to a Feducci storylet in the Feast.

Wow, I was really looking forward to this. If there's nothing new, why start a week later than last year? An extra week of anticipation just increases my disappointment that much more. This really takes a lot of the fun out of playing right now.

FBG's release calendar seems to be tied to weeks rather than dates (this is quite common in UK academia, at least, so it's not surprising to me). By that reckoning they are not late - the festival started on the penultimate Monday of August (a week before the UK August bank holiday), just like last year.
Similarly, EF stories are released on the last Thursday of the month regardless of the date.

I'm sure he's plotting something. He just has the gamblers laziness and contempt for actual work. He wants thrills and being Mayor isn't all that thrilling (just ask Jenny).

Could we get a word of god confirmation that there are no new treasures, and it wasn't just that everything wasn't updated from last year?
