Core Bucket?

What happened to that bucket at the entrance to the core?
Yes, this is a very important part of my life. Its absence has left a gaping hole in my soul.
I'm really sad that they removed the bucket... It was the only reason to go to the core (also for the final list of what you got)
It just really boggles my mind as to why this bucket was removed. It DID dropped crown every now and then... like those brushes and lamp on D23 before going into SL... IDK, it seems really silly to take it out something so trivial (then again, I'm posting because of this trivial thing)
/yell WHERE ART THOU!!! BUCKET!!!
/think Did the core swallow you? o.O

The reason why the bucket is gone is because a knight needed to use the john. Where else would those knights
go to?

@Corechu Happens in Vana too.
@Red-Galaxy Are you implying that Knights' waste produces coins?

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
OOO why did you take my wishing well?
Now all my dreams cannot become true.
To get an extra crown to bid stuff on,
Or a fifty to sell a mat,
Now I have to spend more time on SK,
To become rich and phat.

Hey we don't all literally just poop out money! Share some with your fellow knights!

Yep. Stuff like this is why Spiral Knights is uninstalled for me and will remain uninstalled until whoever makes decisions about the game's future gets their priorities straightened out.
The whole "gremlin conspiracy" really makes the game flat out not worth the effort- the bulk of decisions involving the game are not based on "how can we better the bucket found at the core" but are rather based on "how can we the developers hoard the bucket for ourselves". Having the bucket is fine, but not at the expense of the product being made and certainly not at the expense of your consumers. Even I can see that, and I'm quite frankly the nastiest person I know.

On a more serious note, this was a change done at the core. Perhaps there was some other changes made? Is the dialogue the same? The elevator still there?

Well, there is that other thread, that I guess the core is "openable", I've tried it with 4 people, haven't done it yet.

Lol- the core isn't presently "openable"; that thread was a poor attempt at tricking you and now I'm scared because of how many people actually believed it.

Is it still a poor attempt if it worked as intended? Food for thought

So it's way past April 1st, why haven't the Gremlins given back our precious bucket? :c

Herex realized that the Artifact wasn't the key to the Core and that the Bucket was, once we defeat Herex our bucket will finally be returned

my hypotheses is that aphrodite has the bucket and is just saying the gremlins stole it to hide her tracks.
also @xaphak is a gremlin
/ask do you have the bucket?
/think he wouldn't be rioting if he had it already.

My hypothesis is that OOO went into their level editors, and REMOVED the bucket! Great hypothesis right?

Every time I load into the core I shoot at the bucket instinctively... And now it doesn't hit anything.
Bucket, where arth thou? Our lives are empty and our sorrows are plenty with nowhere to turn with you gone.

The bucket is gone....no, my penny. I like to collect my pennies in my penny jar.
On another topic, when will the dialogues on those npc's be updated lol?

Well, at least you can't fail the Dark Guardians veteran test at the very end anymore.

Gremlins took it.
There are very few cleaning supplies in the Clockworks.

Where are your guy's manners!? Everyone knows that it's incredibly rude to leave your bucket out when trolls watch your place from their distant computers!
Tee hee...
My existence is meaningless without something to destroy for a penny at the end of a run.
