Did anyone catch the link to the hidden community board that was posted to Steam about an hour ago?

I found a couple of links to what looks like will become the pages, but they are empty at the moment, so I'll be nice to 22cans and hold off on the links until they are ready.

What is a hidden community board? Apparently they're revamping the 22Cans forum (I assume it will still be backers-only). Someone managed to find the URL of where they were testing it out and posted it on the Steam board. I didn't see it before Muir edited the URL out of the post, but I don't imagine it's anything worth looking at - just empty boards.

If they don't still have a backers only forum, it will be another violation of our reward promises.

Some pretty hilarious stuff in there - Under the 'Purchases' sub-menu -
What are Gems? What do I do if I have trouble purchasing them?
Gems can be used to purchase extra belief, hurry construction, send more Followers to your Voyages and purchase sticker packs. Gems can be purchased from the store in packs of 100, 240, 500, 1300 and 2800. Please note that the option to purchase gems won't appear until after you have logged into Mobage at the Temple of Discovery.

The "What is the goal of Godus?" answer is interesting:
Given that Godus currently has no concept of good or evil, and there is no goal beyond stacking up numbers so you can unlock the next colour of numbers to stack up, I think this is a rather misleading message.

Pretty sure this isn't the link. It's certainly not the one I have found. In regards to other peoples questions about backers only boards - on the link I found, it currently states "Please Note the backer exclusive forums are still over at www.22cans.com/forum/". This indicates that there will be a forum open to everyone, but that the backer exclusive forums will still exist.

Well yeah they can't just get rid of the backer's forum. That's got tens of thousands of posts in it. They would at the very least have to migrate all of those and the accounts. But then again I wouldn't be surprised if they'd just close and delete the whole thing saying "well you had a backer forum so we fulfilled our obligation".

Under the Backers sub-menu -
Where are my Backer rewards?
We are currently in the processes of fulfilling all rewards and some have already been received which includes Alpha and Beta keys, t-shirts, posters, the livestream and monthly design calls. If you are missing any of these rewards that you qualified for, please get in touch ASAP through submitting a request or by emailing support@22cans.com.

An admission that belief, construction, voyages and stickers are all evil FTP mechanics designed to get cash through a shop. Question for 22cans - if the PC and mobile games are to be different then please tell us when you will take all the "crucifying" mechanics out of GODUS?

Oh an did anyone see the article about minecraft implementing their massive online servers? Wasn't that the Neptune that Peter was going to trump with Jupiter? My question is when will Jupiter arrive? I hope that is answered in the roadmap.

Yeah, Stickers aren't going anywhere. From the Mobile sub-menu -
What are stickers?
You use stickers to unlock your power and upgrade cards on the Timeline. You can find them throughout your Homeworld, win them in Voyages or purchase sticker packs in the store and in the Timeline. Kristine Greaves - May 09, 2014 05:15
Also -
What are Events? How do I unlock them?
Events are weekly voyages in which your Followers set sail to explore new lands. Each Event has multiple stages in which you must sculpt the land to avoid challenges and get the required Followers from your boat to the Temple in a set amount of time. Each stage has a reward and completing the full Voyage will grant you a great reward!
You can unlock these events by building the Dock to Events. Kristine Greaves - May 09, 2014 05:20

I wonder if they are planning on using the same Mod and/or rules as Steam. That is just one more place for more company line towing.
