GoldToken's Monthly News

I wish to extend our sincere appreciation for everyones patience with GoldToken's slow page speeds. Mecir has been diligently tracking down and correcting what ever was causing site slow pages. It seems we still have a few problems with page load speeds, but (thank goodness) it's nothing near the trouble it had been. Rest assured Mecir will continue tracking the source of any continuing problems.

Special invitation to all Gold and Platinum members: If you haven't seen the fun new games being tested in GoldToken's sister site, the beta, now is a good time to check them out! They are all new and original to GoldToken, so we can sure use your input there! http://beta.goldtoken.com/.

For those patently waiting, I am so for not awarding the prizes for the best caption for the "future newsletter" pictures yet. It has been such a busy month, but I promise to have the winners list for June's newsletter

is back along with GoldToken's new game. If you enjoy word games, these are right up your alley! Even better, everyone is welcome to play both games, including guests! See you there!

For the month of MAY, players who have a Silver or Wood membership are welcome to try a free 3O day name icon adoption.

Go to Name Icons to choose an icon, and post your request on Icon Mania.

Once an Icon is chosen, you will be able to keep it for 3O*days. We will not be able to change a request once it has been made, but you will be allowed to keep your icon for the full *3O days even if you request it on May 15th!

and if you have any questions please contact GoldToken Support

**Player* Appreciation*

This month GOLDTOKEN would like to send out a

to porkpie1


I have been a member on GoldToken since Sept. 2003. I was playing on ItsYourTurn when a member there said try
GoldToken. It was the best thing I ever did. I left IYT shortly after joining GT.


In July 2004 I created the The Pork Chop Club, and it has been going strong ever since. We have alot of active players and games. Shortly after creating the The Pork Chop Club, I asked one of my best friends here Pepper to be my partner in the running of the club. From that day we have been a great team. I would also like to mention eliphont551 who has been a real strong part of the team that keeps the club interesting and alive. You can click on the club link above, and if you are interested in joining, please send me a PM.


In my spare time I have an astronomy site where I put my images that my friends and I take. We take images of the Sun, Planets and Deep Space. The link is http://www.krccdimaging.co.uk/ if you'd like to check it out.

Over the years I have made many friends, and a few I have met in person are: beckybythesea, MadMike, sue, Whitewolfman & Summer Flame. I look forward to making many more new friends on GT.

Testimonial Of The Month

Brought to you by: *GoldToken* Players

Candy Cane Kaz

My brother introduced me to GoldToken about 9 years ago. I had previously played at 2 other game sites but soon found out that GoldToken was by far the best.

I have made some really good friends here and also learned how to play loads of fun new games ( some easier than others! ). I also really love how friendly GT is, I think that makes it very special. There is so much hard work put into the site too, new games and features are continuously being added.

I'm so glad I listened to by brother and signed up to the best game site, GoldToken!

What can I say about this site? It's one awesome sight! There is a large variety of games to play so there is never a dull moment. I joined this site in Aug of 04 through a friend that plays here. I had met her in another game room and she told me about this site. She got me hooked.

After I get logged into the computer, this is the first site I go to to play my games. I have met many nice people here, but have become good friends with a few. One of which lives a few hours away from me and I would love to meet her someday. To those who work behind the scene, keep up the good work.
