When I first started Glitch...

I think this thread could turn out pretty funny. Basically, post about something you first did when you got invited to Glitch, and include some pics if you have some.

When I started, I obviously had no idea what to do, so I just asked EVERYONE for help. It turned out okay though, I got a lot of gifts. (If you were one of those people, thank you!!) I also found one of my original avatars: c2.glitch.bz/avatars/2010-1... (back in the day when we didn't have a wardrobe system.... I feel so old.... haha)

So, what are your memories? :)

  • I was given a plate of rice, because I was level one. I spent a good 5 minutes trying to determine where the rice came from before I accidentally gave it to someone else, and realized what must have happened.

  • I died pretty early on. Found it absolutely terrifying. I thought at first it was game over and that was it. Wow that was a short game!. I still feel very of creped out at the thought of dying. I suppose I need to do it again to lay my demons to rest..excuse the pun :)

  • I accidentally gave away my emotional bear, and then spent at least an hour trying to rack up the mere 300 currants to buy it back.

    I also found a chick in my treehouse's backyard, and fed it because I thought it was cute. I was stricken when it jumped from my pocket as a full-grown chicken.

  • After visiting every single vendor I could find, I went to Friendly's Emporium and decided that playing a version of What's the Secret Word would goad him into telling me where he was hiding the salt. He's a cranky SOB, he is.

    I think I was near tears before I asked a stranger who told me I needed to get a spice mill. I still needed help figuring it out.

  • I remember keeping the garlic kissing quest undone for a while, because I was to shy to kiss players I didn't know lol.

  • When I first arrived, there weren't a whole lot of 'old' players around... logged in at a really strange time. I spent the first hour just wandering around, watering things and doing what the Rock told me to. I set out to explore when I ran into my first Barnacle Party! That was it... I was hooked!

  • I stumbled upon a big chunk of beryl rock and didn't realize that it belonged to Clare. She came after me and IM'd me, calling me all sorts of bad names, but I didn't even know how the IM worked. It was only after a bit that I realized what I had done.

    Sorry, Clare! I owe you some beryl!
