A slow boat on a river

Pornogentilhomme Posts: 22 10/14/2014	Hi! I was wondering if dying multiple times could have any accumulating bad effect (other than the boatman becoming good at chess) lately I was considering that the most effective way to reduce my wounds (I have only recently become a POSI), but this time I'm getting more and more cards "you could just give up" or "what can you see of the far bank". is the frequency of those bad cards raising as I die, or is it just the RNG being particularly uncooperative this time? thanks! edited by Pornogentilhomme on 10/14/2014

I now have this habit of going straight from the River to the Royal Bethlehem Hotel -- http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Lacunae

It will end badly for you.) Generally your best bet is to just hold them in your hand so you can't draw them again. Or, you know, once you have the Boatman's Opponent at 40 use the give up card to lower your nightmares and play even more chess (although if you stop just BEFORE 10, a cheery goldfish and a bejeweled cane will keep you sane enough to get your affairs in order before hopping through your mirror.) edited by WormApotheote on 10/14/2014 -- No, I don't pull the Eater of Names.
