funpickle question

Ok, i swear i'm not being a whiner, but i just want to know what exactly was the cutoff date for this funpickle? i also know that this is very old news...it just every once in a while pops in my mind and i wonder why i didnt get one.  i know when i started playing i had to go to beta.glitch.com to play. i was invited in before it was changed out of beta, but not a lot before.  i figured maybe i just wasnt here SOON enough before it switched.  my inner kid is telling me "its not fair" while my inner elderly is screaming "get off my lawn, who cares".  mostly it is just my outer curiosity that makes me wonder the parameters of it all. so enough of inners and outers. i just am glad im not a cat, so i can continue to live with my curiosity.

love, peace, and chicken grease.

  • Love the post. Hope you get an answer soon. I never got to play when it was still beta.glitch. At least, I dont think I was.  Wish I had a fun pickle :(

    But seeing as how the pickle is for beta players, and glitch is back in beta...maybe we should all get one again lol.

    (wishful thinking never hurts)

  • If you went through the great reset, thats when you got the pickle, you'll know if you did by the Ascended badges on your profile page.

  • ohh...is it an OLD beta reset? like not the one that went live, then back to beta? if so then that possibly doesnt apply to me :D

    my friend that invited me has the beta badges, he got them on 9-21-11 i think from what i can find i got my first one on 9-22-11.  so maybe i missed it by a day? if so...that sucks :(

    EDIT: fixed my stupid date mistake...*facepalm*

  • I got my badges on the 20th of september, so you needed to have played before that.

  • That is super harsh. I can lend you mine for a bit, he's annoying as hell. Especially when he makes you sneeze. I've got 1 GNG from it but never another. You would have to pinky swear you'd give it back at some point.
    In some ways I'm not sure I deserve mine, I logged in all but twice during original testing and only came back when someone mentioned it. Completely forgot about the game for about 3 months after a trial. Then I fell totally in luff. Now I struggle to go a day without logging in.

  • oh, i just got one given to me by such a glorious glitchen!! thank you so much for the offer anyway!

  • aw, so nice to hear. Its hard work getting that GNG out, best of luck getting there. If you're still struggling after a bit I can loan for the crab badge too.

  • im so glad this game is filled with such wonderful, nice people. :D

  • Jiva, would you be willing to lend it to anyone else *coughmecough*? I've got honesty and integrity coming out my ears. (Which I will have a doctor look at.)

  • Bloody hell, I didn't realise they'd come out that recently! I only appear to have missed it by a couple months also! Luckily I've bought one since then but always happy to lend it out for those who missed it - same with my dusty stick (which I also bought : )

  • I actually bought my GNG (not a beta tester, seen a funpickle only when someone was playing with it inworld. Looked... strange. LOL), and the crab just completely snubbed it. It was a plain old DR-3 that actually made it happy. Fickle creature.

  • thats too awesome, awesome sauce! Congrats!

  • I knew just offering once would get askies. *sigh* get to know me a bit more and I'll think about it. I've seen awesome around and I don't trust people easily. Sorry. OR if someone wants to do a LOAN trade... GNG or pickle for dusty stick, and a return say after a week I'd try it. I know you mean well dm but I've seen people get hurt in this game too. I really don't want to be one of them. Even though they are just pixels.

  • what exactly does the dusty stick do?
    Posted 6 months ago by awesome sauce01 Subscriber! | Permalink
  • It's lets loose a cute little dust bunny who then runs around for a few seconds before going "poof" and leaving behind a fiber.
    Can only be used once every  4 (rl) hours

    And congrats on your funpickle and GNG :-)

  • Jiva, I totally understand. I'd feel the same way too! :) But we're friends now, so I'm sure we'll have chances to get to know each other eventually.

  • Awwww....a dust bunny! Sounds precious!

  • For anyone else reading this...GNG is not a sure-fire way to make the crab happy.

    If there is 1 block I always have on me is my GNG and when I have nothing else I play it...the crabs normally give me 300-400 currants for it so looks like many others do as well.

    Not sure but I think 650 currants is the top it gives. Though tbh the time I made it happy I nearly fell out of my chair so I missed it. Also, I made it happy with DG-5 a cpl weeks after tons of my friends got it from someone playing SB-1.

    Also, way to go!! Getting a GNG out of it so quickly, it IS your lucky day! Quick, open a cubimal box!

  • I tried really hard for many many game days in a row to make a crab happy with whatever block I had. It never worked for me :(

  • The first I made him happy was with the XS4 - took me ages, and then sods law I managed to make him happy again twice in a matter of weeks.  Really just luck of the draw.  There are a lot of GNG's flying around so they're probably the worst one to play for him as everyone gets told to play it! lol I'm pretty sure he gave me 2000 currants when I made him happy!
