I remember original DW videos and they were quite cool.

Basically, I'm just hoping we will get an update on the new expansion and bit more info and gameplay examples involving new features :).

Maybe, a date for new info?

Gameplay videos would definetly be interesting to watch now that there's some significant changes to gameplay (borders, leaders etc.)
Hopefully there'll be some news in a week or two.

P.S. Is Elliot still working by himself or has he hired few people to help him?

But I'm excited to find out who might be the winner :)

So yeah whoever wins their creature and its lore will be added. Maybe plus a free copy of the game? Or Trilogy I would prefer :D

Name in the credits and your own creature in one of your favourite games and its lore + free copies of the DW and its expansions. I think that's great.

I can just imagine Data's bearded face screaming at me like he's run into Emotion chip troubles.

Talking of which...did you even invent a creature, Data?

I submitted one for you Data, but I think it was so hideous, Erik pulled it from the forum and gave me a formal warning to never do this again! (Just kidding; he did not do that).
Here is an image below...
