When the GM awards a Style Die for Feeding the Plot, or Good Form!, add a style die to your character's record. Also, don't forget to subtract one from the bowl. Likewise, when you spend a Style Die for something in the game, return it to the bowl. The bowl can never have more than the total number in circulation.
If you get a Style Die for any reason (which comes from the "Box"), the total number of dice in circulation increases. Usually, the GM will do this; but if you happen to remind the GM that you are playing to your character's Foible, then you may do this yourself. Just remember to increase the total number in circulation. Don't forget that you can Good Form! Gift one another. Doing so will pump another die in the circulation.
Every five scenes will constitute a "session", and thus reset the bowl and amount in circulation. So...use what you have by scene five. Create the World. Create NPCs and dictate facts.
For clarity, everyone who makes a change in their Style Die, both to the character record and the bowl, should note such in your spoiler block IC notes, or out-of-character post.
