Not sure how notable this is, but I know it is the least picked option for London's Sinew: managed to go full hog and get 50 (now 54) Sanguine Ribbons. I feel slightly sick.
Slightly more interesting, I discovered a spelling error(!) in the journal entry.

"...when she looks at you again, it is carefully neutral - but is seems she has lost her taste for gambling."
Reported it, since I like my rare journal entries typo free. But still, guess too many people can't have seen this one otherwise it would have been reported already.

How many Gothic novels might an enterprising spookmonger feverishly scribble down by guttering candlelight before she had attained some degree of acknowledgeability? I seem to be doing little else in the city these days . . . I suppose crafting the nightmares of others staves off one's own. I've almost finished my thirty-fifth manuscript. Thoughts?

I think 35 Gothic Romances might win! I don't remember anyone doing that particular quest!

Finishing SMEN clouded the fact that I got a rare success while Laying in supplies to sail North! Nice to get a Primaeval Hint after selling all, but the major difference in the text is great!
"Tree of Ages, seeking me / Take my eyes that I may see..." An antique chill touches your spine, like a finger of flint. For a moment you almost feel you've grasped a profound and horrible truth. The song fades...
I was amazing to get this right when I was heading North! Even so, this text is amazing and I think it's a hidden little gem that not many people are able to see it. edited by Skinnyman on 8/21/2018

Acquired and will forever display 1000+ Dubious Testimonies because that just seems to be my very being.
Just wait till I hit 7777... something will happen, surely.

Well, now you know: It doesn't reset, only subtracts 3 for every dinner, and is (most likely) uncapped. And it fits your achievement list well.
Now I am left wondering, should I keep my preparations at 777, for bragging rights? Or should I 'cash in' the benefits, serve around 390 meals, and work my way back to zero? It arguably would be an achievement in itself: It would take 1,5 year at minimum due to the limited Free Evenings and requires the help of others.

How much time has passed? I'm not really sure anymore, though I feel like humans don't live that long. Good thing there's the magic Mountain down there! Now onwards to 7777.
