Our devs have been hard at work tracking down and squishing bugs within the new Fallen London site. We've reached the point where we'd like to invite a few people back in via a closed-beta.
If you'd be interested in helping us by finding and reporting bugs, please email fallenlondonredesign@failbettergames.com directly with your character name included so we can give you the required permissions.
After we feel confident in the closed-beta, we'll be opening it up to further load test the site, so stay tuned!

Hi all,
We've just updated the beta to version 8312. You should be able to get the updated version by just refreshing the page (although you may have to do so more than once). For reference: the current version is displayed in a couple of places. If you're on a desktop-sized screen, it's in the footer, while if you're on a smaller screen it's at the bottom of the slide-out menu.
Fixed in 8312:
- Penstock's Land Agency is accessible from the Bazaar again.
- Drawing 'problem' cards in places like the Finishing School no longer blanks the story tab.
- The listed number of equippable items of a given type in 'Possessions' now changes when you unequip/equip one of them.
- Possessions you can't use no longer have a pointer (hand) cursor.
- You can no longer buy/sell items in negative quantities.
- You can once again change mantel/scrapbook qualities while viewing your profile.
I'll do my best to keep this thread updated when we deploy substantial updates.

Version 8360 is now up on beta.fallenlondon.com. Please refresh your browsers to see the latest changes.
There are only a few noteworthy fixes to report:
- Second chance icons should now display correctly
- Echoes in the sidebar should no longer display "0.00" when starting up
- Trying to accept a social action that one of you is ineligible for should behave as expected
- The messages tab should auto-update every 2 minutes
- Selling an equipped item should update the Possessions tab and your modified stats

Version 8461 is up on beta.
Most of the latest changes relate to ongoing work on issues around synchronisation, but there are couple of minor things to note:
- You should now be able to request a password reset.
- There's an option in the slide-out side menu to go full-screen, should you want to. (On larger devices, the option is at the very top, beside your username.)
- We've made some changes to the map's behaviour on small screens.
Thanks as usual for the bug reports and feedback.

Version 2.8.0 is out.

If that's the case, is there any reason it can't be made to work like it does on the old site right now?
Nope! This is fixed. (There was an open ticket on it; I'm not that fast.)
The only other noteworthy change is to the way in which we fetch images during app load; this should be a little less onerous on slow connections.
Thanks as always for the bug reports and feedback.

Version 2.9.1 fixes the order of items in each category on the Myself tab to match the current live site.

Version 2.9.20 is up; please refresh your browser if you're seeing an older
version.
A couple of tangible changes among the bugfixes:
- Quality requirements on small screens should now all fit onto the same line.
- The map now automatically closes when you enter a storylet.
- Map location tooltips on large touch devices no longer occupy most of
the screen width.
- The 'Play' buttons in touch devices' card tooltips are now consistently
functional.
- Opportunity cards should update correctly when you move between areas
with different opportunity decks/hands.
- Buy/sell messages at the Bazaar are a little more nicely formatted
now.
Many thanks, as usual, to the army of beta testers for the bug reports and
feedback!

I just want to say that this beta does work really, really smooth and easy. No time shenanigans which plagued me at that first attempt, and no really notable bugs, so congratulations. It just works, period.
