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.

  • 127, LBo? - Isn't that like a fraction of us FS'ers that hit here within the first second of them opening the que-jumper towards the end of Alpha? lol!!

  • I'm still here -- but like onelittlebird, I'm in a bit of a Glitch lull, waiting to see what happens going forward.

  • @sygo....had to mention FS and open old wounds :-) Oh how I miss that game! The new housing platform will hopefully be more like FS and we can only hope for Breeding :-)

     I'm not Alpha but beta....

  • Alpha here. Feel like an ole timer, been through right 'bout 3 or 4 resets. Yup. 'Member when there warn' no swamp houses, and we had to walk 5 miles to school. Uphill. both ways. in the snow. Yup, back when we had weather here in UR.  [Est. Aug 2010]

  • Technically I am an Alpha but I got in only about a month before Beta so it hardly counts.  I think that there must be quite a few Alphas still here.

  • I started at the very end of Alpha just after FS closed ~miss that game terribly  )'= .
    I still play here most days, though not as much as I used to ~had to cut back as I was here a good 5 to 8hrs every day, and ended up with GOS (Glitch Overload Syndrome).

    signs and symptoms of GOS include 'yelling at chickens for not holding still when being squeezed, feeling annoyed when getting 'Super Harvest' because you loose mouse-control and the critters get away 'coz you're in limbo under the rainbow, and others.

  • I am still here!  Started just after the beginning of Alpha and am still enjoying the game.
    Ur was tiny in those days, you could walk all over it in a few minutes!
    Once I had a house in Mariposa something that no longer exists.  Twice I came back to find my house had been moved.
    Have been reset more times than I can remember.
    Trying to milk butterflys in those days was a true nightmare!
    Good times!

    ps. edited to wave at onelittlebird and Tradescantia xx

  • I think I started right at the start of the first Beta. I went through a few resets, at any rate.

  • I came to the game just before the last reset. From 12th level I fell to 1st.

  • Alpha female here. (Is there such a thing as pre-Alpha?)
    Posted 10 months ago by Eleanor Rigby Subscriber! | Permalink
  • *raises hand* I'm a late alpha too, I think. I was imagined on March 18, 2011 and maybe that was early beta. Like so many, I too wandered in heartbroken over the demise of fs only to find a new home here! But I soon fell in love with glitch, even though I sucked at climbing and jumping. lol

  • A few days ago, I celebrated my 1 year (IRL) anniversary. I got my invite around the 1st of the year, and the first alpha test in which I participated was over the weekend of 29-30 January 2011.
    I'm still enjoying my glitchy little life!

  • Another Alpha here. Got imagined on Dec. 28, 2010... missed the yeti by just a few days (although I probably would not have been able to level up enough to get him, but I'm not bitter, nope, not me!).

  • Weird, Lilith ... I was imagined after you, and I had the Yeti in my bags when I first logged on. He's still one of my dearest Glitchian possessions.

  • my story is: i was a FS player who came here about 1 to 4 after alpha. so consider me a late alpha player, an FS player, and a beta player!
    Posted 10 months ago by GiaTori Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm just barely an alpha player, I started playing around Feb. '11
    Posted 10 months ago by Tofu Casserole Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I guess I should have put my info in the OP... I'm a late Alpha, invited and imagined on December 29, 2010.  Played on and off through alpha and beta, and played a little bit nearly every day since just before launch.  Invested way too many hours, and loving every minute of it! :)

    Since there is a pretty sizeable contingent of alphas still around, I was thinking, shouldn't there be a badge for Alphas?  We got one as a pre-launch Beta.,,,
