It was exciting to read about the adventures of superkaempe the gentle giant on the Milestone Events discussion board , as he traveled across the States from Denmark, visiting several GoldToken players in the latter half of June and the first half of July. He spent 5 days in the Lake Tahoe area with my family and I, and 6 other GoldToken players from Sacramento (including jingham and his wife Kid A). We must have all put on at least ten pounds each from all the good food we ate!! Not but a few days after superkaempe the gentle giant left to continue his trip across the States, I was able to meet greggyw and his lovely wife Pooh for lunch at Hams Station, a historical wagon train stop not far from my home.  It is purely coincidental that Pooh and I both came down with walking pneumonia after our visit! But what a fun month July was! If you ever have the chance to swing by Lake Tahoe, be sure to let me know you’re going to be here and maybe we can meet for lunch or a BBQ!Chad is still working on setting up the new service, Google Checkout, as an alternative payment method for those who would prefer not to use PayPal and should have it up and running soon. At this time, only players with a U.S. address and bank account will be able to process transactions through Google Checkout. But we look forward to their offering more options in the near future. I apologize for those players still waiting for their prizes and packages to arrive. I have been down the past few weeks but am on the mend now, so your packages will be in the mail shortly. A special  to our management crew, Matt, Kran, Tessa and firefly, for keeping GoldToken running smoothly in my absence!! They are an awesome team and work very hard for all GoldToken players!!  --Badger P.S. The platinum gift for August is one of the cool GoldToken Koozies!

Joggle Jungle is going on sabbatical. Stay tuned in the upcoming months for our next appearance. Thank you for playing and we hope you enjoyed the games!!!
Mary (Badger), wanted me to write about my Grabble technique. I’m not really sure that I have one, but I will explain how I play. When playing, I usually look at the board and my letters and plot my next moves. I usually have more than one for backup. When my turn comes around I play out my words to see what gives me the most points. If I don’t have words plotted out then I place the letters in various places on the board seeing what words will be accepted and what points are allotted. Sometimes just placing the letters helps me form words that I hadn’t really seen until I placed the letter on the board. It’s not a difficult system, and anyone can do it. It may not be the best system either, but it works well for me. Every game I play teaches me at least one new word, (some even make me smile when I find out the meaning) so it’s a learning experience as well as being fun. I love word games and play as often as I can, and maybe that’s the only technique anyone needs…. The love of the game, and a little bit of luck. ZOE If you think you’ve got what it takes to impart some unknown game skills to other players out there, send your submissions for Games Corner to GoldToken Support
