Glitches of Ur

A Wild List Appears!

We have a list for you to register your interest in the Alpha, at last! It is time to entertain a wider audience of Glitchen.

First, you MUST have an account on our website. Without it, game access cannot be granted, and your request will be deprioritized until we can reach out to you for more information. We will work on making this more efficient, but it just hasn’t been able to be a priority.

Signing up does not guarantee immediate access; but the plan is to add a batch (10-15?) of folks every few days so we can generate some regular activity in the game. This will allow us to estimate our hardware needs to accommodate a large population of players.

In my tiny home office, I have a page with all the emblems printed, 9 rows tall and 11 wide (because in order to fit 11 on a page, they come out 9 tall, shrug). At work, I have printouts of a couple of snaps in my cubicle: my first Purple Room in my tower snap and, of course, Autumn Day.

There are tiny bright spots on the internet--Startling Fecundity has locations as PNGs to explore; they also have the Calendar and a few other resources. (Right now, it's 11:30 am, Weddingday, 19th of Fever, year 33.)
Revdancatt has a walkable set of locations with chat, which is somewhat buggy but oooh I don't care. (Starts in Marrakesh Meadow by default. Not sure how to get to places that aren't linked directly.)

In process: ElevenGame is currently empty; it's "a project to create an open-source Glitch MMO server."
Children of Ur was building a platform before the resources got released; they should make progress faster now. They have a Google+ Group.
Dopiaza has released Glitch Run for iOS. Makes me wish I had an iThing. (I'm not getting an iThing for the sole purpose of playing a Glitch app. Probably.) I know there are other projects, both directly Glitch-based and Glitch-inspired; I am happy for all of them.

( So little, and so much. )

I have changed the notification sounds on my Blackberry so that when I get an email, it sounds like quoin sharding from Glitch. (Quoin sharding #3, if other people have the sound effects & ringtones pack.)

I'm on a very active email group at work. I get dozens of emails a day, most of which I don't have to pay attention to at all. (Yes, the entire project group needs a record of when the files finished uploading to the server, and when the invoices went out, and when the software was updated. No, I don't need to react to any of that.)

Now, instead of dozens of annoying beeps during the day, there are happy quoin sounds in my pocket. And since it's the shard sound instead of the standard quoin sound, I always think I'm either in Groddle Forest Junction or Madhur Hathur when I hear it.
