Some of you might get a kick out of this :P My boyfriend read some of my forum posts and sent me the following:

Anne: I sincerely think the Princess is best for London.

Princess: Hey, wanna hang out?

Anne: Get the F*&% away from me!!

Should look into this as well! You made me too curious!

Late to the party and I started looking for more details about our candidates. That Echo is a frigging blast! smile
Time to look for more!

My boyfriend had another remark:

"So you plan to elect the Princess by writing extremely damning criticisms of her?"

I hate him :P

No you don't.
Marry him. And then vote Contrarian. That way, you can campaign against him all year long.

This is gonna give me a heart attack. Before Monday morning, I have to amass 328 more MW CP, and draw the Townhouse card again - as I've decided to invite the Princess for the finisher of my one-week rush to 15, given the current occasion. I have enough Scheme left to invite a Crooked-Cross once more before I drop below 20, but I don't know if I trust my luck enough to draw the card twice. That means I must scrounge over 300CP with whatever bits I can get my hands on - probably sacrificing a few bejewelled lenses, because I find myself straight out of CoC for the Bazaar lodgings card, and side-converting like a maniac. And then I might not draw the Salon card at all. This is worse than last Hallowmass.

Oh by the way is there anything I can spend like 800 spare CP of MW on after I invite the Princess?

You can convert MW CPs (also costing Compromising Documents and Intriguing Snippets) to Nights on the Town at the Bridge Without in the Bazaar Side-streets. Nights on the Town can be converted back into MWs on some Lodging cards.

    Well, it took a while as I was too busy, but I finally update the candidate sheet and few extras stuff I found on the forum. Many thanks to those that echoed the results!


    I'm sure there is a lot more, but it's the best I could do!

    1) On a matter of questions, is anyone aware if it's oki to link Fate locked Echoes?

    2) Any info regarding the left over Reputation? Except cashing it! smile

    All ES discussions link to their echoes. I doubt it is prohibited.

    Wow thank you for the spreadsheet. Love love loved the Slowcake encounters under extra info. Makes me regret throwing my hat into the ring for the princess...

    Not knowing who's in the lead does make the elections more mysterious. The disparity between candidates in years previous took a bit of the fun out of it.

  • A question: Will we at least know in advance if the Flash Lay results may change, like they did last year as candidates succeeded/fell behind, just to know if there's any interesting content to catch up on? If nothing else I am relishing the look on the Amanuensis' face when it becomes clear just how unpopular Mr. Slowcake is to the common man.

    But if they're telling the truth about the 'true objective' of their candidacy, they wouldn't care about how unpopular he is with anyone? If anything, Mr Slowcake being popular enough to win might become a slight inconvenience.

    You're also assuming that all the polls were used as a proxy for actual support. Which is a pretty reasonable assumption, but maybe not the case.

    Oh I'm not talking about the purpose of the outcome. A while ago some folks speculated that the Amanuensis self-inserts into the role of "Mr. Slowcake" as a more respected, successful and influential version of himself.


  • I'll have a laugh if his heart breaks over his self-insert receiving little respect.

  • I'm the one who speculated such. I cite as another bit of evidence the fact they never actually tell you how Mr. Slowcake came about. The Devil who monologues about their evil plan is just as much an actor as Chester (it explains why they cottoned on to Mr. Slowcake, but it doesn't explain Mr. Slowcake). When the Amanuensis meets you, he just admits Mr. Slowcake's nonexistence and explains why Mr. Slowcake is taking part in the election...but he doesn't say anything else.
    Maybe the Amanuensis's reaction, win or lose, will tell us something more.
