I realised a while back that “has engraved across all rooms” is ambiguous. While we’re here, could you fix it to “2 plus 1 for every three Rooms in which that Vampire Lord’s Sigil is engraved”? As it is, it’s unclear whether we’re counting the number of times the “engrave sigil” has been performed, or the number of sigils that still exist.

Also, I’m not so sure this is a discount: it’s only a discount for a player’s third sigil, and actually makes it cost more for the first. Because you need a sigil in Library of Souls to be able to compete, this will have the effect of tending to lock new players out of the game; that might not be such a disaster given how long it’s been going, but it still seems non-ideal.

I like the new version, and plan to vote for it unless some other issues are identified.

No vote, but we might want to consider going further and giving engraving a flat cost of 1.
