is there a reason the new promos are delayed? most people hate seeing promos come but i for a fact saw it as one of the better things cause it was one of the (only) things sk did on a regular basis so im quite bummed/sad/disappointed a little of all that no new boxes have appeared after 1-2 weeks i think...

Dude

Like they've said before they need to figure their s--t out before they even look at the game. It might take a little until they even think about promos.

I'll quote the lovely

I'll quote the lovely Eurydice:

--The behind-the-scenes workload on this transfer--for all departments, not just engineers--is huge.

And Cronus (who I generally refer to as Evil)

--We still have a heaping ton of things to do in the backend to make sure things stay ship-shape

Please continue to be patient with us!

Nice to have that answered

On another note, since it's very clear that the promotions have had the birthstone theme for a while, if we move past April or even May without their respective gem promo, will we see them in the future?

Diamond was one I was looking forwards to since it will likely be clear/white, and the only other real white costume pieces we have are battle chef and kat eye stuff. If we push out box promos again sometime in a month or two, will all queued promos be released at once, or will their schedule just be delayed?

You guys are being quite

You guys are being quite selfish about those pixellated costumes of yours. Let the people focus on more important things (like transferring ownership) than on helping a single one of your costumes that benefits nobody but yourself.

. . .

As far as I can tell, all the gem promotions were completed soon after they were first released. Them not being on their schedule right now is due to transferring of the game assets, which is a perfectly reasonable and worthwhile process.

Gem promotions would make me throw another $20 at the game, which helps Grey Havens and in the past, all the rest of you by paying for game server time and employee wages.

Wanting to know if/when we can estimate the continuation of the gem promos would be nice for those of us who like those sorts of things. It isn't selfish to ask when a sale will be at a store when they're remodeling.

If you like it, you should have put a front accessory on it.

@Fangel As far as we can tell, each gem promotion was completed a week before it went live.

Diamond would have been nice though.

Better question for Hera: Is there a time estimate for how long "Behind the scenes workload" will be taking, or is the game just permanently out of commission like last time?

So the game gets its first big change in YEARS, and that being that the game is being sold/given to another company... this gives the chance of new actull content and real updates and then u ask about more promos............... im done i give up

@Meghan-Trainor It's probably

@Meghan-Trainor It's probably gonna be a few months or so for the Grey Havens team to get their act together. There's especially a lot of logistics they have to go through just to transfer the assets.

Anyway, A Question For Hera/Cronus to answer: If you had to pick a Spiral Knights event that you liked, what would it be?

Real or in game?

Real - The pumpkin carving contest. As a side note, this is also my favorite event over on Puzzle Pirates.

In game - Dark Harvest Festival. Apparently I have a thing for gourds.

I don't know. It's certainly possible, however our current focus is not on box promos (though that might change in the future).

our new problem

I really wish you guys would just address things head on but then I also wish you'd use the edit button instead of double posting.

So our new problem is that the administrators are making too many posts? Frabjous!

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

But..but...IT'S GOTTA BE OVER 9000 POSTS!!!

...sorry.

Anyway what if his browser lagged and doubleposted. Instead of deleting the second one, he simply decided to stretch his post out.

There. I edited out the semi-snarky comment about the double post. I'm not like, angry at Cronus for double posting or anything. I just thought it was kind of humorous is all.

New Content

Though i'm really happy standing around looking pro in my decked out stellar sentinel set, new content would really increase yall's revenue since it would give us a reason to buy stuff and that would lower energy prices as well. Just something to consider after yall transfer everything. New content is something OOO never did much of. Also seeing Cronus really boosted my zest for the game cuz i felt like yall cared enough to visit \o/
