What first attracted you to Glitch? What got you hooked? People on my reading list were talking about it and I had a weekend to kill :) Got hooked on teh cute graphics first and on the world second.
Have you specialized your learning/street features/bags/etc. for any particular skill branches? [e.g. cooking, furniture-making, building, etc.] Nope, never really got the chance to.
Do you have a tower? If so, what's neat about it? Would you like help adding floors or building one in the first place? No tower.
Do you have anything in excess you'd be willing to trade or give away? Hooch, planks, metal ingots, though not quite as much as other people could offer.
Do you have anything you need or want more of that other people could give you? Nope, I am all set.
Are there any quests, achievements, and/or other goals you're still trying to accomplish before the end of the world? Some bean planting quest and I'd like to get an icon of Lem.
Have you visited the Vortex of Randomness yet? Are there any regions you haven't visited at all? I have visited all regions and have all Completist badges, plus I have visited most seam streets.
Do you practice any skills similar to Glitch skills offline? Animal Husbandry? i have two cats and three leopard geckos.
What do you think you'll miss the most about Glitch? The community, especially Glitchwidth :/
Where else can Glitch friends find you online? Are there any other Dreamwidth communities you're active in? I can mostly be found on DW, and I am not particularly comm-sy these days.

Aw, the snap came out so well! That's adorable. :o)

Re: the bean-planting quest, is it the one where you plant in five different regions, or the one where you nurture to full growth trees on your street? If the former, other people's streets count as individual regions in their own right...

Re: all those Completist badges - wow! Do you have favorites among all those many places you've visited? That's a pretty spectacular set of accomplishments.

I'm definitely going to miss the community too - it's been a real pleasure to interact with people in avatar ('in person' isn't quite the right phasing) whom I'd only known before through text-based DW stuff. DW IRC channels come close to the immediacy, but they lack the technicolor vividness that's so intrinsic to Glitch.

I have one with three different regions ( have done two so far) and one with 5 on my home street.

Yeah, I like jumping around :) My favorites by far are Haoma and Roobrik. Lots and lots of jumping and the coins are worth a lot. I usually spend some time there every day and fill my coin limit and get a lot of img that way.

Also, I like the ancestral lands, because I can just run through them and get nice goodies :)
