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.

  • In these dire times I am reminded of a video that Glitch made not too long ago, and find it oddly appropriate for this very situation.

  • Alright devs, we'll cut you a deal.

    If we make it to page 4 before Glitch opens tonight, then you guys give everyone a badge for the longest thread ever. AND we step on all the bugs you need us to step on.

    Deal?

  • Violet: Thank you for reminding me, it's difficult to remember when you've tunneled deep into the third page. Main thread has been updated. 

    ETA: Close this thread? I'd never.

  • Blanky: since its 5pm Tiny Speck time, is it possible it will even open today?

  • Dirty limerick time! Yay!

    O'er bogs and heights Ooloi would jump
    And meditate 'til the Rook she did stump
    But Ooloi was fraught,
    As a good Cosmanaut,
    Impatient to give Cosma a hump.

  • Hey Blanky, thanks for the update, I hope you guys are not much on pressure over there its hard to work stuff around when you are with like 5 bosses asking - is it ready now?
    Posted 15 months ago by Yohshi Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @Blanky: How did you get the job updating this thread? Did they ask for everyone who wanted to do it to step forward and you stayed where you were while everyone else stepped back?

    Please make sure the developers get a good night's sleep. When I managed devs, I remember the trick was sending my folks home before they started creating more defects than they fixed. If Glitch doesn't open until tomorrow we will live (at least most of us will).

  • WOO IT'S OPEN! It was like standing at the rope at Disneyland waiting for the park to open so I could run to Space Mountain! In celebration...

    Mojito recipe from the guy (yours truly) who won his restaurant Best Mojitos from the local alternative rag's Best of Phoenix a couple years ago:

    Juice of one large lime (~3/4 ounce)
    8 to 10 fresh mint leaves (get mint from an Asian grocery or Yerba Buena from a Mexican grocer; it's WAY cheaper than at a regular grocer)
    2 bar spoons (lightly heaping teaspoons) sugar
    1 1/2 ounces light rum
    2 ounces club soda

    In a mixing glass, muddle lime juice, mint leaves, and sugar together gently until sugar is mostly dissolved. Add rum and a scoop of ice, and stir. Strain mixture into a Collins glass filled with ice cubes. Top with club soda. Garnish with a spent lime half and a sprig of mint. If you're in a hurry you can do everything in the Collins glass and not bother with the straining.

  • @Tyler - LOVE the "dev dialog" post about this thread!!! LOLROTFL!!! Also @ Voluptua and Skwid - So enjoyed "George Martin Is Not Your Bitch" post and song from yesterday's posts on this thread! And now for my limerick contribution to go for our four page goal...

    There once was a Glitch named Hab
    Whose day had been lonely and sad
    She opened this thread
    With worry and dread
    And found herself laughing like mad!

    Okay, so its not genius, but it counts! LOL

    P.S. @Blanky - Just how wonderful ARE you to read this WHOLE damn post!!! (((Blanky)))

    P.P.S. Big HUGS and good thoughts your way, Stoot and poor devs that are working so, so HARD and working SICK on top of it!!!

  • Set a new date to revive it.
    We can take it, we'll survive it.
    Take your time, so you don't break it.
    We'll survive it, we can take it.
    We all know you want to make it
    So much better than before.
