Does anyone know when awareness week is in January? I was planning on using the awareness book I've got to overlap both Christmas town and awareness week.

OK, what about the year before? I'm trying to see if they just blanket make it the last week in January. If they do I won't start the boom until the 31st and thag won't overlap Christmas town at all.

An unspecified boost is given to all players for the annual "Awareness Awareness Week," for the duration of the 3rd week of January

From the wiki, so it should fall on the 19th to 25th.

Hate to throw water on your planning, but from my understanding - Awareness is not a stat that benefits from stacking.  Higher values don't equate to better items, or multiplicative effects for a greater number of drops.  (+200% for a week will average out to the same number of drops as +100% for two weeks)

 

If you're not already reading a book, better to use it immediately.  Cash today is worth more than cash next month.

Someone in my faction is reading the book now, didn't wait for awareness week, and at last report, was already closing in on 500mil in items.

Another in my faction/former employee, read the book during Awareness week, while in a candle shop... and did worse during Awareness week than I did.  and I don't typically do well during Awareness week with all my Awareness boosts.  The rest of the year, absolutely I do well for all the merits in, etc.  But Awareness week, is brutally disappointing, every single year. 

Just read it now.

having read the awareness book and having 5/10 merits in it, i have been getting 8 items on average every day since reading the book, for now equaling 1.5m a day. i still got 2 weeks left...

Yeah, reading the book during awareness week or not will not really make a difference.

 

The book gives an insane boost compared to anything else but the boosts are additive.

 

If anything you can have a slight boost for a week during the event and cross your fingers for a good drop then read the book later and cross your fingers again.

 

In any case it increases your chance finding something but never the value of the items found.

 

I short you aren't really worse off either way.
