Haven't really noticed any low level cards I hadn't seen before.

Also haven't seen the Lapidary in a couple days. Grrrr. That's 1200 Glim I won't be getting back.

Dumb question: have you been in Veilgarden of late? I just went back there and drew her in ~5-7 draws after a week of not seeing her... and a week out of Veilgarden.

On a totally unrelated note, in retrospect a lot of the "new" cards I've seen recently are thematically appropriate for the University or the Docks, areas that I'd never spent much time in until the past week...

My dear friends, if there happen to be someone, somewhere nearby, who is certainly not seeking any Names, and he feels a need of confession of not seeking it (who but a madman would seek it?!), I would be most sad to listen to such a confession. Of not seeking anybody's Name.
(It might take me a moment to gather enough Scandal, mind you, and I'm a little lacking in Wounds, but that should change soon enough).

Err ... what is this related to?  >_>

Also, apparently I trust Antur now.  For some reason.

I had a dream - a most peculiar dream - that I was nearly caught up in this morning. But my belly felt slightly too full to think of bed, so I sought out a sordid pastime instead. When I was swept up in a dreadful scandal and fled, every dream was swept out of my low-hanging head. While I'm no longer exiled among the gauche over-dead, I still find myself just a touch over-fed. But should I find my appetite and my dreams, 'ere this fad for confessions passes...

I found my first eyeless skull. I'm torn between being rid of the  d------- thing immediately, and wandering the ruins of the Forgotten Quarter without pause until I find 4 more so I can pass this infernal thing off for something more useful.

It's also making me question the very thought of starting to seek nameless things that nearly every part of my being (to say nothing of polite society) are telling me shouldn't be pursued.

I've played this off and on since around the time it first appeared, and have just recently unlocked Wolfstack Docks and The Flit.

Add me, same name as to the left of this post, as I'm far too busy beating zailors with truncheons to hunt down all the people listed here and give them my card.

Also, I am a Knife-and-Candler, though you never heard it from me.

My guess would be he met one of his goals and wished he had not.

Misclicked on the "big rat" storyline and lost my disgraced Rattus Faber Bandit Chief.  The only way to get one is via rats in your lodgings (which you can only do once) or via a card that is permanently locked once you start the "big rat" storyline.  Contacted support, they told me I was SoL, said that that was disappointing and that I had spent time and Nex on a character I had no real desire to continue playing because of this, got a reply back that "they were sorry I felt that way" and a link to account management.  Well fuck you too, failbetter.

 That's a shame, Shakerag. Permanent loss of unique items seems needlessly punitive in a game like this.

If it's spent opening up a storyline I don't think it's that egregious. But you'd think support would understand that in a game with a million buttons, someone occasionally misclicks the wrong one.

I mean, if it was something I could get back, even if it was grindy and difficult, I could deal with it.  If I screw something up in a video game, I can reload a save even if I lose an hour or more of progress.  Hell, I know back when I played World of Warcraft it was fairly painless to get a GM to restore an item if you accidentally vendored it. 

But this?  This just felt like a middle finger.  It was suprising to see that the staff for a game that is heavily about storytelling to be rather insensitive about someone who was trying to carefully craft a certain kind of character.

On an urelated note, NOT A FAN of the UI update. I don't want huge red buttons yelling at me to BUY MORE ACTIONS or SPEND FATE TO REFRESH ACTIONS on every....single....storylet option.

That's the kind of shit I expect from webgames I don't play.

My dear friends,
 I remember reading some time ago about the elusive venom ruby. Now, whilst I would be the first to admit that I am not a person of any importance, i would like to ask where I could acquire such an item.
 Regards, sjm9876
