Ok, it seems that the new boss is fast approaching but I have yet to see a gate where the fourth stratum is either gremlin or construct ( I think it might be either or). I would like to fight this new boss as soon as it is released but to do that we must help create a new gate in which the fourth stratum has gremlin or construct.

So that means we must stuff stratum 4 of a gate with crimsonite and moonstone, but no dark matter for gremlin and I don't remember construct. I'll ask Wegner.

Edit: Wegner said that moonstone and luminite, but no valestone makes construct.

It will probably get inserted

It will probably get inserted into an existing gate, like they did with Snarbolax. That's how we ended up with Snarby and the Royal Jelly in one gate.

Nick has confirmed that they'll stick the Gremlin boss stratum into the existing Gate that doesn't have a boss in it.

Also, the monster designer has mentioned on his twitter and on his website that he's got deadlines bearing down on him. Presumably this is due to the rapidly approaching release of the boss stratum. I'm sure he's hard at work tightening up the graphics on level three... by arrhythmically mashing on his keyboard and tablet.

Hope everything goes smoothly for a swift release.

Oh, really? Then I guess I don't have much to worry about, But i'm still going to try to manipulate the Coral Rook Gate, I just need to pull crimsonite and luminite over Dark matter and I'll have my new boss in a couple of days.

Edit: I meant to post this earlier, disregard it. Also my mission was a success even if it was in vain, the Coral Rook Gate now has a gremlin startum in the 4th slot.

...I thought it was the whatchamacallit Queen that was the boss-less gate. Or maybe I was mistaken?

Edit: Yeah, the boss-less gate is Onyx Queen.

Coral Rook is the new Vanaduke gate. This mission was doomed from the start.

Well it was a gremlin stratum

Well it was a gremlin stratum but it went back to shock.

For the sake of Dogrock's keyboard

We need that new boss ASAP. The Gremlin Haiku Hijinks Competition ends a week after the new boss stratum goes live. The haiku have since grown in legion and are about to make off with Dogrock's keyboard if not Dogrock himself. Dogrock does the bulk of the SK Gremlin Library slave labor data entry.

In all seriousness, I hope

In all seriousness, I hope it'll be ready by the end of this weekend. My friend's finals will be over in the next day or two, so we can round up some people for a run together.

Edit: McConville's twitter says he managed to meet the deadline! Also that there are mechs and sleep. (Or maybe he meant that he's going to sleep. Which is also good.)
