Try every release for the past 12+ months. Someone has been posting (apparently self-assembled) whatsnews on a Chinese forum sometimes 36 hours out from releases, which has occasionally resulted in angry Asians posting here demanding the release. I waited for Kale to tag the release, which is generally when e.g. John IV or Lord Nightmare have posted whatsnews on MW in the past.
