So, who here's beat their habit of writing "2019" at the end of dates already? I'm getting there - I'll probably have it down by October!

You might have already been doing this, but do you sell information? You can find the prompt under Choose your target or Preparing for a Big Score, and you can trade 10 CP of Casing for 10 CP of Shadowy by using Pass on information to a colleague. If you're near another level, you can steal paintings until you get 4 Levels of Casing and then cash them in.
I was not, I forgot I had seen that, thank you. That will, at least, be a significant increase in rate of points, although I think I'll pool the casing for the last part, as to try to keep at chancy for the 3 cp on success for the paintings instead of two. Ideally, that would double the payout for the successful ones, I think.

Do we know anything about Ambition rewards? Is there any? Can we keep it after switching ambition?
I rather pay fate and enjoy all ambitions on one character than have to raise 3 alts and leave FBG with no money.

We don't know yet - none of the Ambitions have fully released yet. Expect to know in about 2-3 weeks when the last portions of Nemesis are all released.

Oh, I should've thought about the social actions! That did clear the matter indeed. Thank you!

Yep, me too. Site usually not loading in firefox or safari. It was working fine the last few days for me, but right now it's down.

Caroline has several longboxes, and is in the process of saving up her money best she can. It is better for money to sell them outright, or sell them at Wolfstack and use the favors for Expeditions?
A longbox sells for 25 identity uncovereds. That's 62.5 echoes.
The other option spends an action to get 50 echoes an 3 dock favours.
I guesstimate each dock favour to "cost" me roughly 1 action.
So, assuming I am grinding expeditions repeatedly, the comparison is between
1) get 12.5e, spend 3 actions
2) spend 1 action
One way to look at this is that 1 is 5.25epa over 2 actions, 2 is 0epa over 1 action (on top of any other gains you are getting either way), which paints 1 as significantly better.
Another way is, your main grind (expeditions?) has some sustained epa X (that you can maintain without using any limited resources), and you compare what your options give you above that. 1 is 12.5-3X, 2 is -X.
1 is better than 2 when 12.5-3X>-X <=> 12.5>2X <=> X < 6.25.
Sell at docks unless your normal money grind is 6.25epa or better.
(or pad to the same amount of actions (3) and also compare totals: 1 is 12.5, 2 is 0+2*X ; this also leads to 12.5 > 2X)
