Maybe, just maybe....

Well, although I've still got a level, and currants, and a house, and my avatar-look, I've got no skills and no badges all of a sudden, and when I first arrived at the site a couple minutes ago I saw this.

Could these be.... signs?
/me tries not to get giddy....

• Hmm... I still have skills. 21 of them to be precise. I don't, however, have any friends any more :( Is this a result of changes to the game, or does nobody like me now? :P
  
  The latest blog post states that: "The next test will be announced in the next few days and we're aiming to several larger ones as quickly as we can. We thank you for your patience :)"
  
  I can't wait!

• oooooooooo Eleanor I like your attention to detail! :D
  
  skill revamp! skill revamp!
  
  i've actually still got skills but no badges or friends (aww), but yay, excitement!
  
  even if there's no actual test today, it's good to see signs of progress. the forums have been a bit /grr lately, maybe we're all getting a bit Glitchy Twitchy? thanks also to the glitch team for the new blog post and video, even if it did make my brain explode a bit trying to catch all the details :)

• I still have friends, but that and a house is all I've got.
  
  In some universes, that would be plenty.

• Hey here's a thought: maybe our accounts are being wiped in different ways to see how we recover?
  Speculation is useless, but oh so much fun. : )

• Yep, my skills and badges have vanished as well. I'm so glad I am off of work today... Here's to hoping! :D

• I still have skills, badges, friends and my house. I will sell you my friends for currants.

• All I've lost so far are my skills.

• I really don't want to lose my skills - I spent ages getting them! Why would stoot persuade us to start learning skills that take the longest time at the end of the last test, if we have to start afresh :( My hope is that they reappear :P (Although I haven't actually lost them yet)
  
  I liked the Avatar video. I kept seeing flashes that looked like various people, and wondering if it was just me seeing things, or a deliberate insertion to see if anyone noticed.

• We get reset when they want us testing things from the beginning of the game. Don't get "married" to anything (skills, achievements, items, houses,...) and you'll save yourself a lot of headache.

• Yeah, in this case, we actually had an accident and deleted things we did not mean to delete. We are debating whether to restore from a backup or just forge ahead and give bonuses to those who ask nicely :)

• We're just a bunch of excitable shiny happy players, I'm gonna bet we'll smile and say "Please?" while batting our baby browns coyly.

• Oh, pretty please? (not sure what I'm asking for but I guess it's worth a try!)

• Looks like they went with the restore option.

• ha, i was gonna say 'restore shmestore' but that was just my Glitch Twitch talking... i am super excited to get my friends back... after all, i never woulda sold 'em out for some quick n' dirty testing and maybe a bonus shiny... nooooo, of course not!
  Posted 14 years ago by katlazam | Permalink
• Yep, we are restoring. Stupid data integrity issues! Back soon!

• Optimism! Optimism!

• XP is back to 0, level still at 6. amazing! ;)
  
  I'd rather test for 6 hours tomorrow instead of 3 hours today, so i optimize in that direction. :)

• *super-glues Tingly's needle to "test today please"*
  
  there you go, all fixed! :)

• Any testing today will not subtract from testing the rest of this week :)
  Posted 14 years ago by stoot barfield | Permalink
• I now have 0/0 XP, but am at Level 11... I also appear to have no profile. I'll wait and see how things pan out! :P
  EDIT: Everything is back to normal. Thanks!
