Indeed, nobody has completed it, but some have got part way.

This much is known :-

   With  the last message, a tentacle appeared growing adjacent to the city  square.

   For several full moons afterwards, the tentacles tried to expand to  adjacent squares, spreading out in whichever direction they could until  all 8 city-adjacent squares were full.

   They avoided lakes, volcanos, etc.  and did not grow where an army was camped.

Extract from:- 

This would suggest that ANY army is sufficient to block the spread.

As for the next steps.... that is unknown

I do not believe race makes a difference - just troops as far as I have read

Since there are 4 species of tentacles, do we need to reinforce our towns with all four races? I have about a quarter of a million troops in my town, a vault, thieves, 8 squares occupied but NO ORC. Can anyone help by sending me at least one? NAP no problem.

To ponder "Swift and Ruinous"...  Could it mean these painfully slow moving corrupted beings that come back after we visit the temples?  Perhaps a community of players much smarter than us would have figured out this discovery by now but not before learning that you can limit the number of corrupted that return from the temples while Audrey is active.  And you said there was no benefit for the discovery taking SOOO long, I beg to differ.

So we each have our little plans in place to hold back the tentacles where previous players have failed?  Is the suspicion that it will be the FULL MOON or NEW MOON?  The New Moon provides darkness for the escape, but maybe the tentacles don't see so well and need the light of the Full Moon to break out and create their little spore-infestation around a city that has failed in this mission.

Is failure necessary to prompt additional messages along the way to the discovery?  Have we missed a clue?  Is the British-style English in the messages we have so far just incomprehensible?  Does Audrey generate a different message during this period when something is sent at it?

Additional speculations encouraged... it will make me seem less crazy.

Good luck.

Messengers don't die when they finish their work... they just aren't on the payroll any longer.

Just noticed that the messenger returns from Duraz Karag. He doesn't die on the spot!

How long will it take us to wake Audrey again
