Looking to buy a Glitchmas Yeti

Hi everyone! I'm new to the game and a collector. I would love it if someone sold me a Glitchmas yeti that they have. I'm currently saving up all my currants for one. I've only got 8900 right now, but let me know if you want more and I will pay. Please send me a message! Thank you very much. <3

  • I've saved up a lot more currants now! Please let me know, everyone.

  • @Lin

    The Christmas Yeti was a gift to Alpha players who were testing last Christmas.  It is one of the few things that will not be wiped when the game is reset at the end of the Beta testing. 

    They are irreplaceable, and were only available to the few people who were testing around Christmas time. If someone is willing to sell theirs, expect to pay a very high price.

  • i doubt anyone will sell you theirs, especially since all the currants will be wiped from the game after beta, whereas the glitchmas yetis will not.

    this is part of the problem with awarding special gifts to early players. it puts "completists" who join up later into an impossible position.

  • Yes, I agree striatic. :(

    Anyways, I've saved up 30,000 and an emblem, if those can be traded. I'm still gathering more stuff though, so I'll keep updating this thread.

  • Lin, you shouldn't bother.

    i doubt anyone will trade a yeti for any kind of in game item which will invariably be wiped from existence at the end of beta.

    it's possible the glitchmas yeti could get handed out every glitchmas, in which case you could just wait until then.

  • You should wait until the game goes live, and then try to trade, for reasons mentioned above. I wouldn't say no one will trade a yeti- there have been quite a few people willing to give theirs away! But if you want to do them a fair trade, it can't be until after the last wipe.

    I'm keeping mine, though .

  • I have two. Just sayin'.

  • Yes, I've met so many people that are nice in this game. People are so willing to help, which is why I love this game so much.

    If anyone has a yeti, please let me know. I have 40,000 and a street trophy piece saved up. The street trophy pieces might not be reset..?

  • I'd recommend waiting till after the beta and the final wipe before trying to make that trade since then there will probably be people willing to make it. As striatic pointed out, the trade is not very fair right now: you'd get something permanent and they'd get something ephemeral.

  • Thanks, stoot barfield! Just a question, is that the only item that will be saved from the wipe? What about those street trophy pieces that we worked hard for, or radishes, which are no longer in-game?
    Posted 19 months ago by Lin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Wiped! Just the Yetis (and I think game servers, if there are any still around). I might be forgetting something though ...

  • I thought we got to keep the easter bunny chocolate trophies...
    sigh I wish I hadn't donated my yeti :(
    Posted 19 months ago by Gabi Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yes, stoot, will the chocolate bunny trophies be saved?
    Posted 19 months ago by Lin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I am fine with bunnies being wiped... if there is another hunt next easter.

  • stoot said:
    beta.glitch.com/forum/gener...

    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)

  • Among other things, event if we didn't have a pending wipe, currants are mostly worthless right now. an hour or two of solid mining and you can buy anything you want in the world and that isn't the only way to make bank. Look what you've one in just 5 hours between posts yesterday, Lin.

    So given it is just "funny money" with not much of an economy formed, and no reason to try and get "rich" after your house purchase currents - be it 10k, 50k or 100k - just isn't much of an incentive to part with something.

    You'd probably be better off just making some good friends who have been around then ask if anyone has a spare. It's been known to happen. And spares are floating around (either from auctions, gifts, or leaking through Rube).

  • That's fine, then. I'm going to open up a bunny charity with all my money, then. Thanks everyone!

  • stoot, there were a few special items that were granted to us (eg: after that crash right before the end of a test, the ones who logged back in got an angry server, or something like that), but only the Yeti was left in inventory.

  • hey, I want my server back! :-( 

    (stoot, you big tease! It didn't survive the wipe.)

  • I won mine in a fun beer naming competition  from the delightful Nanookie, so it can happen :) would not part with it for anything either :)
    Posted 19 months ago by Misha Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I sold mine or something soon after I bought it, drawn in by the 7k and not realizing how special they would become. Aldaris, who happened to have 2, was nice enough to give me one.

    Very glad he did, as I was starting to feel very left out from all the talk about yetis :)

  • Playing rook's advocate here, but
    IT'S JUST PIXELS PEOPLE.

    That being said, I do miss my SB music block with the baby stootface on it.

  • Yeah, I had a server too (found it in Vicar's Peak) but it didn't survive the last wipe!  :(

  • "IT'S JUST PIXELS PEOPLE."


    Yes, but they're such special, yeti-shaped pixels...

  • I know. I just like how that expression gets lobbed at anything associated with sentiment.

    IJPP!

  • From what I remember, there were 2-3 items that I had from various events/crashes. The yeti and server are the only two I can clearly remember.
    Posted 19 months ago by Johnny Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I made the mistake of using my server, but at least I was able to tell people not to touch theirs.
    Posted 19 months ago by Tingly Claus Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Quite frankly, all the 'I want I want' is a total turn off. There's at least 3 people with varying degrees of volume that won't stop banging on about the Yetis. Another Chris said it best.... "You'd probably be better off just making some good friends who have been around then ask if anyone has a spare"

    I've finally reached my patience level with the subject... and just like my kid - you start banging on about wanting ice cream and you'll be waiting for months. As it stands now, I wouldn't part with my Yeti and would probably donate it out of spite if I ever left the game.

  • Personally, I want an Ayn Rand doll. :D Just because I'm a fan of her writing, and I think the concept of one is really, really cool. Do they really exist, or only on the encyclopedia page?

  • Going off topic with sc, I have a Nietzsche "doll." I use the term loosely as it is just a cut out head that talks.
    Am I missing it in the Encyclopedia?

  • I've been testing for over a year (like April 2010) and I've not gotten any of these mythical "special" items! *sad face*

  • Keep rejecting his offers until he tries one you want, but accept an offer before he wanders off the edge of your window.
