| GoldToken's Monthly News |
March already! Amazing how the time just flies when having so much fun! February watched JenJen become one of GoldToken's site managers and CATCHER211 take her place as assistant manager. These two ladies have dedicated hundreds of hours working for you, the players, to ensure your play time at GoldToken is enjoyable and safe. Without them and the other site volunteers, GoldToken would not be the fabulous site it is today.
I wish to give a special
to all GoldToken volunteers that spend their time on GoldToken behind the scenes to see everything works as it should, keeping the discussion boards free of slang and troll attacks, handling the GoldToken Support account, the hundreds of tournaments in wiki and the database, managing clubs, site features, writing polls and the monthly news. For those new to GoldToken, there are an average of 100 volunteers, that spend precious hours dealing with site needs so you can play. And, lets not forget the club owners and those who run wiki tournaments. There is no way I could do it all myself. GoldToken stands out among other game sites because we are truly a safe family site and we strictly enforce the site rules to keep it that way. Without you, there would be no GoldToken, and certainly, no GoldToken family.
to the incredible design talents of firefly and the code talents of Mecir, GoldToken now offers card games! If you are a Gold or Platinum member, and would like to catch a glimpse of the other card variations coming to GoldToken soon, check them out on GoldToken's beta site, http://beta.goldtoken.com/. Our beta site can always use beta testers, to ensure that new features and games are fully tested before bringing to the main site here. If you wish to have a say in how these new features are applied, be sure to check in there frequently.Happy gaming!

{ Club }
We would like to extend an invitation to any players out there that like something a little different while waiting to move in their normal games.
We run a hangman format, with a few crossword-type puzzles added, that are all created and monitored by members of the club using the wiki format. Members post puzzles, monitor them, then whoever solves the puzzle becomes the new host and posts a puzzle that they, themselves, will monitor until there's a winner or there's a hanging which would result in the host posting a new puzzle.
Anyone who is interested in joining can send myself JTOhio , Pappa or Dragon Jr a message and we will send you an invite.

Question:
Heart of Darkness,
Coat of Grain,
Was once alive,
Now feels no pain,
Never walks, but
Leaves a Trail.
Circle head and pointed tail.
Grows shorter as the day goes on-
Its waistline is a hexagon.
What am I?

| Testimonials Of The Month |
| Brought to you by: CATCHER211 |
I have been a player at Goldtoken for eons. I lost my original password and so it seems like I have been here since the start. What I enjoy the most is playing the games, but also learning of other peoples cultures. Sometimes you develop friendships here and get a glimpse into countries we may never visit, but can obtain some knowledge about it from that player. If you play here as often as some of us do, and a player goes missing, we worry. There are still a few who've disappeared but I pray all is well with them. We simply become concerned because they become a part of our online family, and it's easy to become close to someone here at Goldtoken.
We all have something to share... so playing here makes that very special to me.

I've been a member for almost 2 years. I found Gold Token when I did a Google for Dominoes. The site is a very friendly one and most of the people I've met are personable and pleasant. I've always gotten help when I've needed it. Several players I've met over this time have become net-friends and that is always nice.
