So, I went up to the PoSI 3 days ago. After some successes I have 3 Bizarre, 5 Respectable and 18 Making Waves.
But still have no option to summon Amanuensis in the lodgings. Any advice? Indeed I have no Notability at all.

Rule of thumb for new PoSI
Get these items first: Membership of God's Editors, Clay Sedan Chair, a ship, club membership, BDR item for every part of your body
Worry about Notability after that. Every point of BDR helps and until you have at least this set, it's a waste of your time to try to raise Making Waves.
Also last Feast was a very good time for buying rare BDR items. So if you are planning to buy/use Fate, I'd wait for the new Feast to start in a couple of days.

I am in the same position at the moment: I spent my 8 points of Notability on getting past 200 in Watchful and now I have been for two weeks without the Amanuensis card. Too bad, Favorable Circumstances doesn't work any longer.
You may know this already, but an Acquaintance of yours can give you with a single point of his Notability if you're at zero. That can be done from the Amanuensis Opportunity card even if it's been summoned at the Lodgings, though of course to summon him your Acquaintance wil have to build up enough Making Waves. Once you're at Notability 1 you can summon him yourself at your Lodgings and everything becomes easier ^^

It's not rare. It's Very Infrequent.

No, he'll show up regardless of your MW and BDR. I think your luck is just balancing out.

The requirements are just that you're a PoSI: the other options on the card would be pretty much completely useless if you could only draw it when you had enough to get a Notability! I think the RNG just spites you utterly.

Ya, I had not realized this until it was too late. Now I am sitting on 19 Making Waves with no way to turn it in. I have everything else I need to acquire my desired lodgings at Penstocks, but I am powerless to proceed ever since I spent my last Notability Point on something else. I can't even call the man using a Favorable Circumstance, which I find egregious. Why wouldn't we be able to call him with it? It makes no sense!

Cortez the Killer has killed a Master, definitely.
