June 2016(unknown photo)
To coincide with GoldToken's annual Club of the Year award, we now have two new GoldToken holidays, The Club Day and Club Presidents Day! However, we are going to have a little fun by not telling you what day either one is, until that very day. Then the games will begin! ps....there will be HTH games, and oodles of site contests on both days with cool prizes! In celebration of GoldToken's first annual Club Day, we are giving all players who correctly report the date of either of our new GoldToken holidays to GoldToken Support, entry to a play off fast tournament in which the winner gets a custom name icon made to their specifications (must be 50x50 and my limited artistic abilities lol).
If you purchased a t-shirt or sweatshirt as part of the fund raiser for Mecir's vacation to the United States, be sure to upload a photo to your GoldToken Photo Album and send a PM to GoldToken Support with the photo number (found in the information below the photo, in your album) to have your photo included in a dedicated album. Our T-Shirt drive was a great success! Mecir will be flying into Las Vegas the first week of July, and staying with Jeff and I in southern California until mid July. If you can make it for lunch with us during this time, send me a PM! Consider this an open invitation!
(unknown photo) The player who remains standing at the top of the most [ King Of The Mountain ] ladder games of all five wiki game sets will be awarded a full year Platinum! Playoff games will determine the winner if there's a tie. You must be entered to win. Check out [ King Of The Mountain ] for more info!
Gold and Platinum members are invited to visit the beta site - http://beta.goldtoken.com/ - to help test what will be an exciting addition to the site! Now is the time to help out and give input regarding wording of game rules, ease of playability, game operation, etc!
Never be in want of games! Join the The Olympiads Club and post on the club's discussion board to signal your intent to play. It's going to be fun!
to Mecir, our discussion boards have been split into two categories, that you now see on the top of your game sheet. This will help you navigate the many discussion boards available on GoldToken.
When you upload images, you will now see: I have taken this picture myself This picture has been taken by someone else This information is used to allow us to categorize the picture properly during approval.

One of the many wonderful aspects of Go is the ability to play on almost any sized board without needing to changing the rules or the pieces. Here at the board sizes range from Go 7x7 (fast and furious and a brawl from the very 1st stone ) to Go 19x19 (slower, more considered and a higher level of complexity Wizard - thought still with the occasional brawl ) but you can play Go on boards as tiny as 3x3 (that's three lines across and 3 lines down) all the way up to ... well any size really (the largest tzorec has seen played is 38×38 ... and getting back to the games in the Second Meijin touney they will be fighting games!

These wiki based tourneys involve work being done by clubs officers to set them up,run them and try to get them filled by club members. Some club have lots of members but the hard core wiki players tend to be a small part of the membership. They set up and run wiki tourneys, offering plenty of different types of tourneys but even then they tend to fill real slow. You as a members of clubs could give these owners some feed back to help them continue to make these games successful. There is a lot of time and dedication put in to keep the wiki based games going, please take a few moments and contact your club owners or message me PattyMac.
