GoldToken's Monthly News |
It is with sad news that MSN is closing all of their groups. This means that GoldToken's MSN Group is closing down. We have decided to switch our downtime announcements to GoldToken's Beta site at http://beta.goldtoken.com, shall the main site go down for any reason. Players that have a Gold or Platinum membership will be able to obtain more information by logging into the Beta site. But those who do not will find site updates listed on the beta login page. We may opt to open a public chat on GoldToken's beta server for possible downtimes, but the specifics have yet to be decided. It would be wise to play it safe and save the beta URL in your browser favorites should GoldToken's squirrels get lazy and we suffer any down time.
December has always been a special month filled with magic, love and giving. This year, it will be no different on GoldToken.com! Our Management Team and Staff would like to acknowledge and thank all of the GoldToken players who give the gift of memberships to other players on our site, out of the kindness of their big hearts! It is each and every one of you that helps make GoldToken the family site that it is! V With this in mind, we are offering a special "Pay it forward" to all members who purchase a membership in December. Each purchased membership will adopt a guest who has never had a membership, in your name for 6 months. This includes all "Adopt a guest" memberships purchased.
In the joyous spirit of giving, GoldToken Management will continue to give out over 200 memberships again this Christmas season to qualified guest members! We wish for each and every one of you in our GoldToken family to have a safe and cheerful holiday season!

John is afraid to sit by a girl. Ed is beside Joe, who is on the end. Bob is to Jill's immediate left. Who is playing who in each game?

Testimonials Of The Month |
Brought to you by: CATCHER211 |
Three years ago my husband found this site as I was driving him mad wanting to play backgammon and scrabble all the time. I was on long term sick leave with a number of problems and awaiting some big operations. I found doing my medication each day while playing here made it seem much nicer ( a spoonful of GoldToken helps the medicine go down ). Playing helped to ease the nerves before the operations too. Along the way I have made some amazing friends, too many to list here, and they have made me laugh so much. Some I've met in real life, and some I aspire to meet up with.
GoldToken is a really warm place with brilliant games and lovely people. It has brought me much more than just entertainment, and kept me sane too. I'm now over most of that and back at work feeling so much better. However, GoldToken is still a place I come to when I want to relax and have fun with friends.
If you like scrabble send me an invite. But beware, I swallowed a dictionary!!!
