  • But, but... I just wanted to login for my free daily shuffle! Oh well. I guess I have a good excuse to go work on the baby's room.

  • Way to spread FUD, Bex!

    Let's all take a deep, calming breath. Other people are not so strange.

  • I love the new housing features, but I have to admit, I'm going to miss having a real address and neighborhood in Glitch. Bye-bye, Afar Whence Quarter!

  • FUD? Don't get it.

  • Serious question, although I realise there might not be an answer.

    I totally get that the game is in beta and that occasional downtime is inevitable. No problem with that at all. But does anyone know if there's any kind of way of finding out when planned and/or long downtime is scheduled to occur? Like is there an opt-in email list, or does it get mentioned on a twitter feed or something?

    (I sat down planning to play for an hour or so and saw the cheery GOD message saying I'd be kicked out in ten minutes. Okay, I thought, I'll nibble piggies till I get kicked off and then I'll go make a cup of tea and by the time I've done that, they'll have rebooted the server or whatever and I'll log back in. Ten minutes later a message says the World is closed for the next few hours and the speech bubble over my head is "hours??? wish I'd known about that...")

  • We should get a tiny model version of our old house to stare at for hours.

  • Khoul Beans. Maybe we'll also get cubimals in auction?

  • My pigs have gluten allergies, kevbob, so don't feed them any grain!

    And be careful with the cabinet, that thing hasn't closed properly in months.

  • Darn it, I started painting my lounge today - a 3 day job normally - and what do TS do, they ensure that my lounge doesn't get finished, ah well do I care..... NO!!!!

  • Thanks level heads and staff! I was all "yikes!!" and now I am all "Phew!".
    That was a good one Bex! :)

  • I never took a picture of my old house, either. But it looked like every other house of its kind, so no biggie. ;)

    Edit: I never took a pic of my test house, either. Same thing, though. (I never really dressed it up.) and I'm glad for a reset - my hoarded stuff was pretty disorganized...

  • Dang Tarod, I got all excited thinking there was a bunch of new cat furniture!

  • I'm going to miss Patchouli Preamble with it's 100+ wood trees. And that's about it. Those signs are an annoyance when you're trying to nibble/squeeze. So good riddance!

  • Question from a n00b. 
    So if this is the housing reset, then once we get back in we'll have to purchase houses, correct? And then it'd be as it was?

  • Batsgirl, the nature of BETA is stuff happens despite any schedule you may think you have.  Just enjoy the non-Glitch part of your day.  :-)

  • Anthropocene, I had the same problem with http://www.glitch.com/items/cat-toys/

  • Zap, you'll automatically be given a fresh new house. Then you'll be able to change it however you like (well, within the limits of the options and your iMG balance!)  The old neighborhoods will be gone, though -- you can get to your new house from anywhere. Virtual living!

  • @Zap, you won't have to buy a house. Your new house is in your imagination and everyone will have one.

  • Dang, firebog styles seem only to be available to subscribers.
    I'm going to be living in a sad and poor shack.

    Nope.  They usually give us about 30 minutes warning before the game goes down by flashing messages in local chat.  Other than that, not even the guides are given more warning.  

    These aren't 'scheduled'.  They happen when the developers believe that the new software is ready to install.  And even if they thought last night that it would be ready this morning, there might be last-minute errors popping up to delay it.  So, no one knows (not even the staff) when these will happen.

  • Yeah, Merlen, the best backgrounds are only for subscribers. I'm kind of not thrilled about that.

  • I didnt have a test house. I had a pimp shack.

    One big room, one big bed, and all the hoarded stuff in piles so I could swim in them all the time.

  • Thanks,

  • Housing reset: means old houses you bought are gone
    Instead you get: imagined home!! Free to have and can be customized with imagination, credits and crafting. :)

    Oh joy!! :)

  • Filox - me either, but at least they don't affect gameplay. :)

  • The best stuff is only for me! SWWWEEEETTTT.

  • Thanks Windborn - figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

  • Will we be reimbursed the currants we spent on our old houses?
    Posted 7 months ago by Putrid Gloom Subscriber! | Permalink
  • You'll get 80% of the value back, Putrid, just as if you sold the house.
    Posted 7 months ago by Filox Subscriber! | Permalink
  • "How are we being reimbursed for our old houses?" - currants (the amount you paid originally)
    Posted 7 months ago by MarbhDamhsa Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Sorry, hadn't read that when I replied.
    Posted 7 months ago by Filox Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I was also excited about the possibility of owning a cat in Glitch... dangit.

  • @batsgirl there is @glitchlog and @playglitch on twitter, if you prefer not to wait it out. If I'm still awake when it comes up I can tweet you. :D
