* ~~A survey has been distributed by the developer in regards to Corrupted Gems which can be taken here.~~ Now closed.
* The interval between KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 15 and 16 was the longest interval between Alphas consisting of 11 days
	+ The shortest intervals was between KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 7 and 8, KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 5 and 6 and KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 2 and 3 consisting of only one day.
