Knights of the Clockworks!
I come to you as a simple knight. A simple knight with a burning desire to hold a candlestick. Join me in creating an all Undead strata gate in the newest gate.
Lavish the gate with love, Dark Matter, and Luminite.
Don't feed it hideous Moonstone!
The time has come to hold candles! Everyone!

one and a half hours til the gate rotates in.
S2 and S5 were undead theme 10 minutes ago.
Thing is, Candlestick Keep is a randomised area like a wolver den, devilish drudgery or clockworks passage. It should have status variants, meaning it should turn up every now and then in shock, freeze, poison or fire stratas.
As far as I know it only spawns in Undead strata
oh yeah I just thought about it. Since there's the no double stratum rule thing in effect, maybe your efforts should be focused on some particular stratums (I haven't looked at the gate yet, watching stuff on tv right now and browsing). Because it is unfortunately now impossible to make an all any themed gate.
Seeing as nobody's seen in yet, you can't say it can't turn up in status strata til we haven't seen it in one for a couple weeks or so, and all it takes is a single candlestick keep in one to prove you wrong. Nick said it was a random level in the style of a clockworks passage, so I'm assuming it has status variants. If it has status variants, it's eligible for showing up in a status strata, the same way clockworks passages, devilish drudgery, wolver den, deconstruction zone and lichenous lairs all show up in status strata.
Edit: Heck, if it has status variants in the undead strata coming up, that proves it should show in status strata.
Moonstone is the 3rd highest in strata 6 and 3, I think. While Luminite and Dark Matter are high enough, we need to get rid of the potent and menacing mineral that threatens our precious Grimalkins ASAP.
On what I said, here's the post from nick: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/22472#comment-129802
Yes, it has status variants. It should be eligible to spawn in any status strata.
I put what I could in Stratum 5. Currently valestone is the most valuable mineral there but that shouldn't help or hurt in concerns to autosell I suppose.
Oh!
Then we should make one stratum in each gate undead at least. And then the other some form of status. Since the 5th stratum is already undead, that should be the undead one and then the 6th be a status, which it already is. Then the 3rd stratum should be undead. The 2nd is already undead so keep it that way, then we just need a status in the 1st stratum!
Viola!
Good job.
We have 5 candlestick keeps in the new gate, =D
How much time until? I'll try to log on near the end, I don't want to do what happened to another gate and cause so much dumping creating an Undead strata that autosell makes moonstone the most valuable.
