Have been grinding solidly since reset + pulling the new mythic; have not encountered _any_ gnomes yet.

Is this just me having a run of bad luck?

3 gnomes in the last 5 minutes; maybe my luck is turning.

Still though: 3 for an hour of grinding: not feeling boosted to me?

basically had the same happen. and “all of a sudden” they arrived. as if someone manually turned them on around 2h late…

Gnomes seem to be not turned on & the NERF of GaPs is in full swing. 1 of our members only averaged 10vks per palooza

About what one would expect to see (give or take some margin of natural fluctuation and not particularly large sample size).  
Originally, I didn’t really plan on doing paloozas this weekend - simple good old gnome counting was the thing on my mind - but made one for the science nontheless - 22 ordinary/4 epic vault keys (yep, looks about normal).
