I'm new to GoldToken and I've heard about lots of different "tokens" - platinum, gold, silver, wood, onyx, profile and recognition. What are they? Platinum, gold, silver, wood and onyx tokens are all awarded to players for bragging rights. Platinum tokens are awarded when you win a site-run automated tournament. Onyx tokens are for winners of club-run automated tournaments. Gold tokens are awarded for winning other games. Silver tokens are awarded for draws or non-losses, such as in multiplayer games. Wood tokens are awarded for losses. These are tracked on your gamesheet. Profile tokens and recognition tokens refer to the same thing - decorative tokens displayed on players' profiles. They can be automatically added to your profile for reaching certain milestones, such as number of years playing on GoldToken or number of games played. They can be won by entering some automated tournaments. They can be gifted to you by another player. They can be won by entering some contests in the newsletter. You can also purchase them. The Recognition Tokens - GoldToken's Treasure Trove info page shows all of the tokens. If you'd like to purchase one, check out the Recognition Tokens discussion board for details. Profile tokens can be used to play Spoof, too! * If you have a question about a site tip or helpful tool you would like answered next month, please send GoldToken's Newshound a message before the 25th of this month.

Remember Wood and Silver can now wear the larger icons for the time being. If you are Gold you can save up to 7 icons, and Platinum can save up to 9 icons. If you don't see what you like, ask GoldToken's Icon Fairy because we have a vast quantity of icons.  Do the clubs you belong to have their OWN club icons? So many cute icons have been adopted by the clubs and we still have some that need a home.  Like this { Image: goldtoken.com/pics/icon110805200941.gif } from the transformer collection or this one { Image: goldtoken.com/pics/icon070828013812.gif } from the Simpsons Collection. You can find a few more here Club Icons. Contact GoldToken's Icon Fairy for more information. Be sure to always check out the Icon of the Day - still time to wear those sandals { Image: goldtoken.com/pics/icon100419195417.gif }!
