What should we expect from reset?

Someone asked in ideas about why we even have to go back to the beginning:  http://beta.glitch.com/forum/ideas/4033/

Now, I understand the need for a wipe to put everyone on level playing fields, but that doesn't always happen with beta to release launches.  Sometimes the betas keep their progress, depending on how well the transition and new pushes go when it's launch time. 

I expect there would be a user table import at launch and therefore, I would get to keep my username. I'd just like to know if there's anything else, when the world is wiped, that users *will* keep?  I'm rather attached to my Easter Trophy, and I'd hate to lose that (I thought I read somewhere that we'd keep trophies, but I can't find the thread).  Just sayin'.

  • Doom. Doom is what you should expect.

    There's a thread somewhere that lists what we keep but essentially we do keep our usernames, any credits and teleportation tokens, and our wardrobe/vanity settings (unless you're using subscriber clothes and have not purchased a subscription). Also, purchased subscriptions will begin to actually countdown at reset. That's what my understanding is.

    We just discussed it, and yes you can keep the bunnies :)

    And back to the original question, everything gets wiped except:
    • your avatar/customizations/owned clothes
    • your credits balance
    • your name
    • your profile (anything you've filled out)
    • your friends list
    • a few custom/special items (yeti and bunny, so far)

  • Yeah, I forgot about the specialty items and freinds list. And profile. :P

  • Oh good...would like to re-earn most of the trophies...never got the bunny one, so that's good that people that got that one don't have to wait a year before getting it again...(assuming they have it next year).

    Call me weird, but I'm kind of looking forward to reset to start from scratch with all the knowledge I've now accumulated. Would be nice to more smartly pursue various skills, do various activities, and purchase things (such as houses) with more knowledge of what to expect.  I hadn't done much before the previous reset, so I really didn't lose much...now I have a lot to lose, but it will be fun to accomplish quests/goals more smartly.

  • And...your choice of colors of a special edition "Ready, Set, Glitch" t-shirt....

    :D

    Can't blame a geek for trying.

  • b3achy, it is not weird at all. I've only been through one reset but many here have been through quite a few. It IS fun.

  • How about a beta trophy? All the new people can come in our 50K houses (that we will all purchase within a week thanks to the shrewd economic tactics developed during beta) and envy our age and experience.
