Table Arrangements
Perhaps I'm odd, but I've enjoyed looking through the shared screenshots to see how other players like to place and organize their cards and timers. A small but delightfully open allowance given players to feel as if they're completely free to create their world as they see fit. Also good fuel for my OCD to make my arragements as efficient and beautiful as possible.

I have taken to manually removing cards from the timers so they don't wreck my carefully laid patterns (hopefully a future fix), but otherwise wondering if others have similar/preferred habits? I tend to break the mat into quadrants, NW for the timers, SW for sponsors/cult members, NE for lore and SE for items and other miscellany :2017eyeball:

I have preferences.
top left, for health, passion, reason (your 'stats'), spread out six across (five to use, and the rest in a 'draw' pile). I like to have five out like that, because if they are 'dimmed' they move things around a lot if you drew from a stack, as opposed to if they are in a line.

Under them, I have any detectives and locations.

Top-right:
All my scolarly stuff and boks.

Bottom -right:
All my consumables and artifacts

Bottom-center (this is further devided into left-center and right-center).
So bottom right-center: all my lores, spread out neatly according to 'what melds itno what', so in a nice 7 card order reminding me of what I can upgrade into what, which I know loops.
left-center:
all my cultists and pawns.

Center of the board - my play field. Where cards go that auto-eject from things.

I remove things that I know are on timers and put them out on the frindges, outside the 'play field'. I put mystique up top, along with facination / dread.
until late game I will put erudition and glimmering to the left of the play field.

Ths is because I can generate around 12+ mystique and I just don't need it anywhere else.

If I generate any noteriety, or evidence, it goes down next to the detectives to remind me.

Here.. forgive my ugly face, I was live-streaming and I screen captured at a derpy face moment:

Thanks for pinning my post! Already have this one on tagged but is about how I arrange every time

My final layout just before my most recent victory (the game where I got my "full" 33/34 achievements.)

It's not super pretty, but I find it very functional. Followers, Lore, Tools+Ingredients arranged by aspects on the right, Verbs on the left with their commonly used cards in closer proximity. Other odds and ends out of the way, and the middle relatively empty so my arrangement isn't destroyed by the occasional "collect all".

This is the layout I use for my runs. There's a bit of empty space on the left I could fill by sliding things over, but in the end everything's organized with a nice empty space in the middle where mystique, erudiction, etc. can get dumped.

This is my compact little arrangement as I'm finally attending at the Feast Of True Birth.

I quite like the right hand side arrangement of lore pieces, which also serve as indicators for what my disciples are good at :)

My table is obviously the most enlightened. Everything organized by hour.

Here is mine right before Enlightenment vicrory (This happened on my ~15th try).

I didn't arrange anything specifically, this is how I played the game.

Here's how I arranged mine for a majority of my playthroughs:
