How many Alphas are still out there?

I've been wondering how many Alphas are still playing. Many of the people I met in the first Beta are around, but not sure how many old timers are still wandering the streets of Ur.

  • shhexy corin checking made me go back & look.
    Wow, coming up to my 2 year anniversary too!

    Happy/sad memories of rare limited open times and missing chances to play. But the parties before it closed again (often for weeks at a time) were always cool.

  • I still play once in a while (April 2010 Alpha here!), but I find there's not a whole lot for me to do once the quests are done. I have limited time to play, so the forced group activities get a bit tedious when I just want to hop on for a half hour. I just end up harvesting my trees, feeding my piggies and logging off most of the time.  I was so pissed when they brought out the icon quest less than a week when I finally went through the arduous process of making one. Do another one? No thank you. :-/

    Wish the house mods would launch soon...that would give me something to do. *shrug*

  • @Green Meanie who needs a badge when we got our Yeti?? :)

  • @Tradescantia - Problem is that not all Alphas got a yeti - especially the really late ones.  You had to be in at the end of December - any Alpha in 2011 didn't get one.

  • @Green Meanie  Aw.  I'm sorry - I forgot that.  Ok - yeah, a badge would be a Good Idea.

  • @Tradescantia - no need to be sorry :)

  • @Green Meanie & @Tradescantia: I was an April 2010 alpha and I don't have a yeti either. Was a quest that was only good if you played Xmas eve, I believe. Because I was enroute to Xmas with the family when the quest was happening. Thus = no Yeti. *sad face*

  • Another late Alpha here :) I got in after the reset before the first Beta.

  • @blogkitten - no, I got my invite somewhere between Christmas 2010 and New Year's.  They had this thing where if you said a particular word in Global you'd get a Glitchmas present, and that was the Yeti.

  • Yep, me too...Late Alpha since  10 Mar 2011/5 Doom 0013 (another FS refuge)...don't really play much anymore (mostly just log in to harvest/feed piggies and maybe gather a few items)...waiting for all the 'big updates' before I start playing more...right now have all the skills done that I want, and don't have much desire to level up or get more currants until we know what the changes will be.

  • I was a very, VERY late Alpha!  I played for one hour, the test closed.  When the game opened up again we were in Beta! :)  (I don't consider myself an Alpha but I got the 200 credits from TS for being an Alpha).

  • Funny.. all this time I thought I was a Beta.. but I guess I am marginally an Alpha..  I have determined this only by virtue of the fact that I received "A special gift for alpha testers" on Apr 13, 2011, 20:25 PST (200 credits) sooo..  just barely :).

    FS orphan too..  I am so hopeful about the new "housing" :)  I miss Travinara..  Hitting L45 tonight :)  Love this game!!!

  • I guess I'm technically a late alpha player too (Mar. 27 2011).

  • Alpha player, haven't been playing at all for some time now — just waiting for the housing system updates.

  • April 13 2011 - I think I played 1 test before Beta started. (ex FS too!)

  • Late Alpha here. Mer and I started the same day, March 27.  Hard to believe it's closing in on a year in Glitch...

  • I just checked back in my email to see when I joined - late November 2010, it seems, which was definitely Alpha. So about a year!

  • Add me to the list of late March FS refugee additions. I troll the forums and groups but haven't been actually playing much lately.

  • Gotta love the subscriber amount, I could've been an alpha, but got in the game late, waited a year or so for my invite.
