Episode 5 goes live soon! Hopefully my wifi doesn't go out mid-podcast. >.<
Hey all,
In order to accommodate our ever-fluctuating schedules, Lord Hood and I thought it best if we had a fall-back date in case we can't record the podcast on Sunday. To this end, we saw an opportunity to also accommodate the schedules of the people who watch our show live.
So, below are a list of times. If you would, comment (or email - latisan@sklayelite.com) on which times work well for you. You may vote for multiple, all, or none of the choices. We will try to accommodate our schedules to the feedback we receive.
Note the time zone...
A) Friday, 8:00 PM (GMT)
B) Friday, 1:00 AM (GMT)
C) Saturday, 8:00 PM (GMT)
D) Saturday: 1:00 AM (GMT)
For those who prefer US time zones, here are the choices again listed in Eastern Standard Time (where we live).
A) Friday, 4:00 PM (EST)
B) Friday, 7:00 PM (EST)
C) Saturday, 4:00 PM (EST)
D) Saturday: 7:00 PM (EST)
We appreciate your feedback!
PS - This poll is going up here, on the website, and also on Steam. Please help us out by only voting on one site.
Either of the Saturdays work best for me, although 4pm EST is better than 7pm EST.
I'm good for C. I listened to all the podcasts and wanna listen to a live stream. :D
Hehe, thanks for mentioning my fan-made video for Spiral Knights Latisan-Sklay. Very much appreciated. I'll be listening to your pod-casts from now on. I'll also recommend them for other people to see.

Awesome, guys. Thanks a lot - getting the word out really helps us out.
Feel free to contribute to the show, any and all the time! :)
If you're not from the future and it is actually Saturday, then yes it will be 'tomorrow'.
Stream time: 2:15 PM EST (GMT-4) Sunday, November 4, 2012
We usually get streaming at about 2 (give or take) and will often hang around after the show for about an hour.
I drew this. :D

Uh... Yeah.
Well, have you?
At this current point in space-time it is in delta (proof-of-concept), but there does appear to be quite some interest in it. And I'm not saying this just because I've made something for that project. Nope. No self-promotion here.
This Sunday's episode will have another guest! In lieu of Lord Hood not being able to make it, a friend of Latisan and Lord Hood is going to be standing in. The "Upcoming Show" details have been updated on the website if you want to ask him anything.
Anger accepted my friend request.
YEEEAAAAUUUUHHHH!!!!
Lawl, there you go! Congratulations! XD

I gotz an idea for ye podcast.
Winterfest
Winterfest will be celebrated in Haven from December 17th to January 1st! This annual event thanks the kind Impostoclaus for his great gifts to the knights. But this year, the swarm has infected Impostoclaus! All Clockwork Tunnels-style levels like Power Complexes and Cooling Chambers will have a chance of featuring special rooms inhabited by Corrupted Impostoclaus. Simply hop on the party pad and see if you can restore Impostoclaus back to his full health!
There is also a Prestige Mission available daily throughout the event that gives you a guaranteed encounter with Corrupted Impostoclaus.
Both via the Arcade or the Prestige Mission, Tier 1 awards the fewest gift tokens while Tier 3 the most gift tokens.
Gift tokens come in two varieties (Red Present and White Present respectively) and can be exchanged in the Haven Town Square for festive hats!
Festive Hats
Maskwell has set up shop in the Haven Town Square and will trade hats for gift tokens.
Hats include:
- Paper Impostoclaus Hat (lasts 2 weeks)
- Paper Imposto-Elf Hat (lasts 2 weeks)
- Replica Impostoclaus Hat (lasts 2 weeks)
- Replica Imposto-Elf Hat (lasts 2 weeks)
- Authentic Impostoclaus Hat (lasts forever!)
- Authentic Imposto-Elf Hat (lasts forever!)
In case you're just a few gift tokens shy of the hat you desire, gift tokens can also be purchased from Bulky in the Haven Town Square.
You know you've found Corrupted Impostoclaus when you find a seemingly abandoned workshop (Art coming as soon as possible). If you enter, you will come into a room with toys stacked up in piles near the walls. In the center of the room stands Impostoclaus, only the swarm inside him has made him grow to the size of the Jelly King (Art coming soon). Step on the party button and Impostoclaus will look at you and do the Jelly King's spin attack once, summoning corrupt Imposto-Elves (Art coming soon). The Imposto-Elves will act as Gremlin Thwackers, with eight of them continuously respawning as you kill them.
Impostoclaus himself will do the Jelly King's second stage attack repeatedly, allowing 6 seconds in between each spin. That's when the knights strike. Once Corrupted Impostoclaus has been drained of his health (600 health for Tier 1, 1200 for Tier 2, and 1800 for Tier 3), the Imposto-Elves will disappear and Impostoclaus will shrink back to his normal self. He'll drop down confetti, vanish, and drop gift tokens (8 for Tier 1, 10 for Tier 2, 12 for Tier 3). There is also a slim chance for a rare white toupee or dapper combo to drop. These will look like Impostoclaus's and be accessorizable on most helms. For the mission version, an elevator will be behind him, and a gate blocking it from players will be lifted. For the Arcade version, the players will have to return through the entrance to the workshop and continue on the depth they were doing.
The hats will look as so:
Paper Impostoclaus- Art to be added ASAP
Paper Imposto-Elf- Art to be added ASAP
Replica Impostoclaus- Art to be added ASAP
Replica Imposto-Elf- Art to be added ASAP
Authentic Impostoclaus- Art to be added ASAP
Authentic Imposto-Elf- Art to be added ASAP
Paper Hats will cost 5 tokens each.
Replica Hats will cost 20 tokens each.
Authentic Hats will cost 75 tokens each.
Impostoclaus hats can be obtained with Red Present Tokens, and
Imposto-Elf hats can be obtained with White Present Tokens.
In Haven, Bulky and Maskwell will be dressed in seasonal outfits, and Imposto-Elves will wander the immediate area around them. Maskwell will have the festive hats for sale, and Bulky will sell tokens (5kcr each) and winter confetti for 300 cr each (same confetti as Summer/Winter promo).
Wow, that's pretty impressive. Thanks!
PS - Do you have Steam?
... and have been whining about not being a reality to Sol.
An invisible friend list status. Sometimes I just want to sign on, do my prestige mission, and leave without anyone talking to me. I don't want to have to be friendly to acquaintances saying things to me as soon as I sign on, and I don't want to be rude to anyone by saying that I just don't want to talk to them right now/today/whatever when it's not them, I'm just grumpy and don't wanna talk. If there was an option in the main menu that you could set even before you chose your knight so that people weren't notified you had signed on, that would be awesome.
I've always said I'm rather antisocial at times. XD
Transmutations:
Custom titles in guild 1) Guild Masters can re-name the guild ranks
Custom titles in guild 2) Members can be allocated their own title, like they can in YPP!

The Guild Update is here!
We'd love to share your thoughts on the show. Send us your opinions!
Come to me guild hall Latisan! Comeeee
Tis Aeternus Imortalitas.
Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, the recording of Episode 8 will be delayed. Updates to follow as they develop. #cliche
Latisan will be live (solo) for the recording of Episode 8 on Tuesday at 2:00PM EST (GMT-4).
If you can't make it, we're very sorry! Hoping to get our schedule back to normal by next week.
Artistbma, I can postpone for you if you'd like. Does 3:30 or 4 PM work any better for ya?
We're holding off the show for another 90 minutes to accommodate some schedules (see above XD).
Look for us at 3:30 PM EST (GMT-4), November 20, Tuesday at livestream.com/thearsenalpodcast!
Hi all.
In an attempt to accommodate the greatest number of people and give more listeners time to prepare/schedule, we have decided to select the later date for our holiday event.
Join us for the first ever... well, the event doesn't exactly have a name yet. Submit a name for our event and you could win 100 CE!
Anyways, the event is going to be held on December 8, Saturday afternoon at 4:00 PM EST (GMT-4). It will probably last for an hour or so (and will be live streamed). We will be meeting at the Lionheart guildhall (thanks for hooking us up, Lord Hood!).
No RSVP is necessary, but you might want to consider a couple other things. We will be holding a simple "raffle" of sorts where everyone submits crowns and random winners will be selected to win the pot. If you want to participate, be sure to bring some shinies (2000 is the minimum to enter).
Also, we'll be holding a very different kind of costume contest, with awards for “Most Colorful”, “Most Likely to Become President of Birdsong Trading Co.”, "Worst Costume EVER", and others. The whole time for "dressing" won't be very long, so you might want to decide your outfits now! :D
Full details can be found on our website at: http://www.sklayelite.com/arsenal/?page_id=155
See you there!
We is about to go live for Episode 8.5. Where is everybody? XD
Oh shoot! Darn I forgot again. I'm booked till 4 Pm EST. Sorry. D:
Join us for Episode 9 this Tuesday at 4PM EST (GMT-4). Thanks to the chat room for hanging out for Ep. 8.5!
I'm not sure if you saw in chat that I had volunteered for judging that, as I don't much care for entering costume contests (I entered one by accident, as I happened to be standing with the spectators, got judged without knowing it, and was sent on to the finals. All in all, it was pretty funny.)
@Artist - Sweet jelly gems. Looking forward to it!
@Tev - I thought I saw something like that, but I wasn't sure. Sounds like a plan. I'm planning on explaining the judging rules at the event to everyone because they're really simple - judges need to choose to the best of their opinion the costume that best matches the category. Easy peasy.
Episode 10 recording live now! livestream.com/thearsenalpodcast
Heads Up Notice:
By recommendation, we may test Twitch for streaming for the Arsenal Party and/or Episode 11. If you're into the whole planning ahead thing and don't have a Twitch account, it's free, easy, and you can chat once you do.
Our channel: http://www.twitch.tv/thearsenalpodcast
This is tentative and we will announce for sure if it happens.
Oh. I forgot Sunday.
And will this party be coming in the near future? Because, well- I like to party.
Due to lack of foresight, we chose Alchemers as discussion fodder for Episode 12.
Rather, we’re hitting the Angelic sets (we’ll get to Alchemers next week)! Let us know what you think!
Winterfest is here, and it’s bringing a lot with it. We’ll be carrying discussion through Episode 12 and into 13, but we definitely need to hear from you guys – there’s no way we can see all there is to see and come up with our own opinions by next Sunday!
• What are the best strategies for running the “Save Winterfest!” mission? Do you assign roles for finding the keys and doing crowd control? Or is it a free-for-all rush for the packages?
• What do you think of the new “Avenue” Lockdown map? Does it offer anything notable over other maps? Do you prefer it or dislike it? Why? Do you like or dislike having PvE mixed with your PvP?
• What do you like and dislike about the Hunter’s Lodge? Have you seen any of the trophies yet? Are they worth their weight in crowns?
• Have you gotten any prize boxes yet? What have you unboxed? What do you think of the new Costume and Accessory pieces?
• Do you like running through Emberlight and helping little gremlin kids as much as we do?
• What can you tell us that we might have missed?
We’d love to hear from… say, at least 3 of you! Post on our website at www.sklayelite.com/arsenal
Good question. Do you have it downloaded yet, Artistbma? haha
Also, thanks for getting us to 50 posts guys. That's pretty cool.
