Krillion answers FAQ

What time do Krillion answers reveal?

After the daily dive resets at midnight US Eastern Time. The official reveal sheet for each date is public for that day only — this wiki archives every sheet with its source link.

How are the rarity tiers decided?

Each accepted answer is compared against every answer typed the same day: the more players who gave it, the shallower the tier. Six tiers run from Plankton (10 points) to One in a Krillion (100 points).
