In November, Mecir loaded a fairly big upgrade to our back-end site code, handling player account and password storage. This should be entirely invisible to you, the only difference is that recovery of forgotten passwords now looks somewhat differently. If you run into any issues, please report them on the Bug Reports discussion board.
You should be seeing much faster page loads these days as well. Tomas has been digging deep into our ancient code and pulling, editing and adding fancy little bits and bobs all over the place. If you seek a special feature to be added to the site pages, please contact any member of The GoldToken Capitulum Club team for it to be considered.
Wow! It was another hard-fought competition. Thank you to our amazing volunteers who made this event possible, and thank you to all who participated in the games. Congratulations to the winners! Here are the results:
Region with most points: The 2015 Winter Olympic Team Juno Club
Player with most points: cmacker
SPECIAL for this awesome competition goes to:
smiler5, Kat, katja, heyred72, MamaBear, and especially Jacob1987, rabbitoid & eliphont551, the very players who help make the Olympics so fun to play!
Have a wonderful month and play like you mean it!

The Loose Cannons Club Has reported a rise in membership and has set up this Tournament The DEC 2016 -- LOOSE CANNONS End of Year Tournament. It starts on the 15th so hurry and get signed up! Start the year off with learning a new game
As her name implies, smiler5 has a sense of humor, so it’s entirely fitting that she is owner of The Daily Laugh Club. She explained how that came about, “The Club began in 2008. It was one of the first Clubs I joined when I came to Gold Token in 2010 and I took over the running of the Club from the lovely PattyMac two years later.” Not much has changed in that time, she says, “The Daily Games were introduced in 2012, but otherwise why change a winning formula?”

As her name implies, smiler5 has a sense of humor, so it’s entirely fitting that she is owner of The Daily Laugh Club. She explained how that came about, “The Club began in 2008. It was one of the first Clubs I joined when I came to Gold Token in 2010 and I took over the running of the Club from the lovely PattyMac two years later.” Not much has changed in that time, she says, “The Daily Games were introduced in 2012, but otherwise why change a winning formula?”
She cited a philosophical reason for their name, “I think these words on our Club Home page tell you about the choice of name. 'Humor is infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. In addition to the domino effect of joy and amusement, laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. Humor and laughter strengthen your immune system, boost your energy, diminish pain, and protect you from the damaging effects of stress. Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free, and easy to use. So join The Daily Laugh for a good laugh and a great time!'”
With that in mind, she listed the things that makes the club special, “The Daily Giggles, posted by the owner and the members.The setting of a new game for each day. The warm,supportive atmosphere which makes members a group of friends.”
When asked if the club specialized in any particular games, she answered “No. We will play anything and everything GT has to offer! Members are encouraged to let the Officers know what they like to play. Obviously the most popular games feature prominently as there is ready take-up for these. There is always a wide variety of games on offer and in progress.”
She enjoys the challenges running the club brings, the most rewarding being “Thinking up ideas for new challenges and tourneys; getting feedback from members, and learning new wiki skills!”
As for the future, her goals are “To keep it vibrant and maintain the high membership levels. Above all to provide FUN and GAMES for all the Lovely Laughers as she lovingly refers to her members .” And to readers who like the sound of all this, she declares “Everyone is welcome! ” The Daily Laugh Club
