On the EOTW, and its approaching rebirth. (aka The Next Test)

You guys really threw down on Wednesday. Whoa. We were glued to our screens with a sense of wonderment and, at times, mischievous glee as you dumped all of your possessions and battered against the very limits of the game. Huzzah! For the nostalgia-prone amongst you and for those who missed out, links to some stunning screenshots:

Emblem mountain in Feman Falters
Chain of orbs in Valia Shede
Discovery of floating cubimals
The party that choked hell 

Now, on to the next test. Couldn't help but notice all the cries of WWIO around here, and thought, "What the heck, why don't we just put them out of their misery."  

So: We are aiming to open on Tuesday (September 20th) - OPEN NOW

What are you in for? Your future is bright, your pockets are light. You'll go through the tutorial one last time and you'll decide which of several streets in Groddle you'll resurface on to seal your reincarnation. And *we* will be glued to our screens once more.

  • I wish we could just get a definitive "Today" or "Tomorrow"!  I think we would all be less annoyed to hear tomorrow then to sit here refreshin for hours

  • They have opened at 6 before I think.

    I certainly hope it opens, I haven't had anything to do for 2 whole days waiting.

  • "Another Flash issue" developers sighed.
    "We want in!" all the players decried!
    The houses are empty,
    in mines, rocks aplenty,
    Because Glitchen's desires denied.

  • On the topic of
    Patience, (a thing which none of us seems to possess)
    Everybody may just wish to take a step back and
    Not knowing when the time will come

    Uncertain of how to
    Plan the remainder of the day

    None of us knows or can place the time
    On which the glorious moment hangs
    Where all of us rest happy.

  • Who doesn't have any wine?!  I will share.  I got married a few months ago and there is a freakishly large amount of wine left over.

    It's all lurking in a closet, waiting to be drank.  It's all home made, and reeeealy good.

    *passes it around*

  • There once was a Glitch from ole Choru
    Who needed some task to resort to
    So she took out her pipe
    Which her Nanny did swipe
    Saying, "Rascal! I shall report you!"

  • And now for a haiku --

    Many trees waiting
        for Glitchen to harvest them.
              When will "soon" be "now"?

  • @Cait: The brilliance of a limerick is always tempered by hardship and suffering! :D

  • TKT- add some strawberries and it's absolutely brilliant!

    Feylin - Currant wine sounds amazing!

  • The Blanky is with us, we are comforted.
    Posted 15 months ago by Skwid Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Once upon a morning cheery,
    While I pondered, never weary,
    Upon the many complications
    Of reporting the creations
    Of the different locations
    Of the Glitch world we adore;

    As I read, no thought of napping,
    Suddenly a thought came tapping,
    Of the pressures that you're facing,
    You the staff who now are racing,
    To solve the problems interlacing
    With players pounding on the door.

  • I got a felling that the game could open in 5 to 4 min, what about you guys?

  • "Dear God."

    "What? What's wrong?"

    "I don't know what happened...they just...they..."

    "What? What did they do?"

    "They've been writing in one thread. For over six hours. It's...it's almost four pages long."

    "Oh. Oh no. Are we...are we going to make it?"

    "There's no way to know for sure. When, and at this point it is 'when,' they do make it to page four, we may have to..."

    "May have to what?"

    "We may have to open the game."

  • Dear Blanky and other devs

    Surely you must have an idea when it is likely to open and could give some idea - or at least some idea of the earliest time it could open now? I only just saw Blanky's post from 2 hours ago buried in this thread and believe me I was awake and looking for it at the time...would it be possible to update in the main post, seeing as is clearly already not early afternoon already? Many thanks.
