It seems great to me. No empty space, and it has a classic feel. Not used to the black yet, but I am sure I won't notice it after a while.
You have been too much in the forums though when instead of thinking "redesign" your first thought is "Mr Eaten is after me!".

I could be mistaken, but it might be due to being SNOWBOUND! At least, that's what worked for me last year.

Basically you go to The Bazaar (mechanical) or The Salons (fluff) subforum and make a thread! Implementation of your proposition is a Luck-Based challenge (and seems to have Almost Impossible difficulty), but there could be a nice discuss at the very least!

I have had keeping a question hidden in my mind for ages.
Recently, i experienced all the content of a certain enigmatic ambition that does not exist, i was sure my question was related with that, but i was wrong.
Let me explain better.
When i was a fresh new comer to FL (when Sunless Sea was in Early Access) i don't remember exactly how and why, i ended in a very strange place, that was more like a developer easter egg, from which i could only escape writing a code in browser (something like /a/exit or /a/escape). At the time i didn't give it any weight, but with time i become curios and now that i am sure it's not part of Enigma, i could speak freely:
What was that place? How could i access it again (too much Irrigo for me), maybe with my alts, if it was a one-timer? Am i hallucinating?
I will gladly accept any help about it, if it's something that should be kept a secret, also a PM will do.
Thanks.

It's not all that worthwhile. You can get rid of nightmares, but it's slower than social actions, and if you have cider it's also less profitable than using social actions and then using the extra actions to do something profitable, which includes dreaming more cider dreams.

So the ideal plan is to horde pails until the wicket opens, buy stuff, use pails to restock PTPT and go again?
If you need a rather high level to get upgraded lodgings it would probably be best to use your pails to get PtPT as high as you can through reliable methods (dipping a soul or using a Semiotic Monocle with Scholar of the Correspondence 10+), then wait for the advent calendar to give you its customary +1 PtPT, and then let The Twelve Days do its work to push the number just as high as you need it. Or one point higher if you're out of pails and need to buy more from the urchins (which requires already having PtPT 1+). Then you could use pails to build up PtPT again, and resume The Twelve Days to build it up further.
But if you don't need more than 5 PtPT in one go, you can indeed just hoard the pails and use them when you're running low. Particularly with the Semiotic Monocle and Scholar of the Correspondence 10+. Though perhaps there is one time during Christmas when you only get +1 PtPT if you don't already have any? I'm not sure. Remembering stuff like that is what the wiki is for.

I've never done that, but doesn't the recipient have to request an eyeless skull from an eligible contact when they're in a position to need one, and don't have any?

They have to request from You, via the Cave of the Nadir storyline.

Is it possible to increase PtPT: Lacre beyond 10? Saw someone with 22 on their Mantelpiece, how'd that happen? You can feed "snow" to a wild boar through a very difficult Dangerous challenge if you have a Dread Surmise, which can bring it up to 16. The Twelve Days can probably push it even higher.

That's what I did my first Christmas, before I knew that it would all just be spent like a currency, and that reaching a really high level wasn't really worth it, considering how it isn't particularly cost effective. But I suppose it was fun at the time to read each new subtitle for the level of the quality.

One other thing: are any of the Mr. Sacks investigations worthwhile, mechanically or storywise?

Looks bit crowded for now, but I think I will get used to it.
Can an admin confirm whether this is an intended redesign, or?
I dunno; I feel like this swing too hard in the opposite direction - assuming it was intentional. Plus, I can't seriously believe that the CP bar is supposed to look like that; the black just looks...unfinished.

Howdy.
I can no longer accept or send Calling Cars. Fallen London simply crashes.
My only clue is the message "You have reached the contact limit of 200" under the "Add a contact" box.
Is this a known problem?

I've went with Urchins' investigation last Christmas, it was deliciously rewarding both lorewise and Echo-wise.
Question: I plan to make myself a Noman and keep him safe until Feast. I've read some stuff and concocted an impression that I better make it late than early. Do I getting it right?

For Noman longevity it is better to make them later rather than earlier. Here's an excellent explanation:
"Depending on when in the week your time the healer triggers, you will want to create the noman in either the last or second to last week of January. The second to last week is the safer bet, as it gives you more time to use up your stockpiled noman supplies (which rely on you drawing the noman card). However, once created, Time the Healer will take between 24 and 70 nomans friend a week (average ~47) once a week. That’s an extra 8 to 23 levels of ptpt lacre (~1 to 3 pails) lost every week that your noman exists before the end of January."

I find myself with 7 Urchin favours and 40 Urchin renown, but at only 9 for Stormy-Eyed. I'm aware of the Mutton Island option, but are there any recommendations for the best holding pattern?

I don't quite understand what you mean with holding pattern, but once you've reached a certain level of RD: WtTS you have to up Stormy-eyed through Mutton Island. Once you did that, a universal storylet opens in London through which you can enter the mind, which you can't leave until you reach Stormy-Eyed 0
Hope this helps
