TOPIC: More Info on 4-Year Patron Token - Get Your Name on a Token!

BeLinda Mathie wrote: Personally, I think the soulforged token idea is neat. It’s a special bonus for major supporters. It’s optional. Big spenders who don’t want to participate (or don’t want to make as many Marks as they technically could) can sell their path fragments to players who do. I’m hoping to craft one for myself and one for my husband. They’ll be cool keepsakes even if we stop playing TD at some point.

Completely agree. And I'm hoping the soulforged bit means that it's actually a little easier for there to be more uniquely owned ones out there, rather than being clustered in big collections. I doubt my family of four players will each have one, but it would be cool if we could manage two. (Then we've just got to throw down about which two... and I'm the only one willing to commit to an actual tattoo, so one of them is definitely me!)

I agree, if I like the mark designs.. im 100% gonna get it. I will have to figure out how it will work in with my sleeve plan though... sad I have to wait so long to see the designs..

It would be neat to have a thread with people showing their soul forged token and matching tattoo if lots of people do it.

what do you think ? will you get one

I doubt very much that I'll get one of the soul forged transmutes, and even if I did I wouldn't get a tattoo, it's just not my cup of tea. It does sound like a really fun thing to do for people that like tattoos.

Joshua, Joshua, Joshua.....

True Dungeon isn't "just a game"...it's a way of life, a community. There's no way we'd still be doing this if it were "just a game". Y'all are an awesome and passionate group and I've seen many people step up and help another person in need, offer an ear or shoulder when times are rough, or sit down with a beverage and work out some of the problems of the world.

The whole "get a tattoo of your token" is wild. Pretty cool, and just shows how passionate our TD community is. Love it! I am looking forward to seeing some TD ink.

The question is: Is a $1,600-2000 investment worth it to you to have a unique souvenir to commemorate your True Dungeon journey? Something to show the grandkids some day and look at and fondly to remember the good times. The one token you'll likely never sell off even when you decide to part ways with TD. Most of the people making these will have spent tens thousands on the game already and maybe even a hundred thousand or more anyway. Are you willing to accept this unique personalized souvenir.

Well if the girlfriend realizes I spent 2k on something I can't ever sell it, I might never have the opportunity to have kids much less grandkids. I may have got away with it up till now because of potential to recoup a part of the money I spent but oo man. We'll see about this one!

I hate to break it to you, but there is always the outside possibility that TD stops entirely tomorrow (or right after you craft the Mark of Enlightenment), and then likely none of your tokens will have buyers for the value you might get for them today. I still hope to be playing TD decades from now, so hopefully that doesn't happen. But, spend your $ wisely.

Well, there ya have it, folks. Fiddy has seen behind the curtain and realized that I have the winning ticket to the $1.insane obscene amount of money Powerball ticket and we'll be closing up shop as soon as everyone wakes up. HA HA HA. MAN, that would be crazy, but alas my tickets were all losers. And, let's face it...even if something like that DID happen, you know Jeff would be like "no way...I LOVE doing this, I'm not giving it up" and he'd keep going.

I'd probably still work "some" but remotely....like from an island somewhere. Ha ha. Oh, it's fun to dream, right? No worries, Fiddy - TD HQ will be open for business tomorrow (errr.....today, actually - darned insomnia).

Lori, I'm absolutely ready for the TD Island arc!
