Any change anywhere?

An experiment which could be interesting:

   do the tentacles follow, or stay at the original location?



Tentacles appear to be growing again this full moon for non-captured non-surrounded-by-armies towns. No cities ever with more than 9 tentacles so far.

Just as a reminder... after the quest first started doing things, every full moon the tentacles tried to grow. Then they stopped for a couple full moons. Then audrey woke up recently and the tentacles decided to grow briefly right after audrey slept even though it was not a full moon. Now (the first full moon after audrey slept) the tentacles appear to be back to growing on the full moon.

Anyone see any other new changes?

I like IbnSenna's idea, with the slight problem that very few people are doing this quest until something ever starts up the second generation. So I don't know if anyone would want to risk it.   

Just for the record, none of my tentacles eat scouts or armies anymore and haven't since Audrey went to sleep. Only one did while Audrey was awake, but now none do.

I just got stiffed by the fortune teller. Completed crafting research in a city, sent 150 t2 spies, and she gave them the usual message about "using your skills more in the future".

Were you sending from a city with an active Plate Armourer, (as a dwarf, this is the building for the adv racial weapon: it might be necessary to trigger the FT message)

I have completed the FT quest up through sending the messenger to Duraz Karag.  I am now exodusing that city to a different square.  It will be interesting to see if that affects the quest at all when Audrey beats again.

Do we have any idea how to wake up Audrey again, as a lot more  have fulfilled all crafting research, and FT and Duraz... 

I have had no clouds or tentacle eating action. I have had zilch since the FT told me of procuring a racial weapon. She'd be in touch...

You scared her Divsy... Just as you scare all of us.

Has there been conclusive evidence that Audrey can be awakened by sacrificing troops, diplos, harvesters to her?

We have fairly conclusive evidence that Audrey can be woken up by sacrificing troops because large groups of troops have been caught 'in the act' of making her expand before. As far as I know there is somewhat less evidence that diplomats helps her wake up, although most people waking her up have assumed they do. So we think we can wake her up faster if we put in the effort, we just don't know the precise details of what she needs to eat to grow up at what speed.


The real problem is we do not have conclusive evidence that waking up Audrey has anything to do with the crafting mystery. We certainly *thought* we did because of what one or two of the mystery messages say (and a related comment by the devs) and the fact that the first generation of people got a mystery message while Audrey was awake and got 'fogged' the precise day Audrey went to sleep...

All the above sounds like a lot of evidence. The only problem is that last time we woke up Audrey no one at all got any of the messages (or fog) that the first group of people such as myself got. >.<   Waking up Audrey again *might* help new people start the mystery... but we don't know why it didn't work last time so it is a bit confusing.

Learning more about the details of how to wake Audrey efficiently might be worth some experiments if people are interested in waking her again. Some of us had planned to do these more detail-oriented experiments after the mystery was completed... but as it is now getting to be near a year and none of us have solved the mystery yet, playing with Audrey is something to do which might or might not help the quest.

One thing about Audrey that differed the last time she was awake was that she was awake 12 days the time the mystery seems to have started, and much longer (18 I believe?) the last time Audrey awoke. There were some guesses that she might have been awake longer because we kept sacrificing so many units to the temples. Regardless, it is possible that her being awake longer than 12 days somehow affected the mystery... It is the most obvious difference (besides time of year) between the last two times we woke her.
