 ==Who should get a wiki account==
-This wiki is publicly readable, so the only thing you need an account for is to edit the pages. However, we have found that edits made by people who have never played the game are often factually incorrect. Thus, please only sign up if you are an alpha tester on the official Glitch site. But if you love playing Glitch, thinking about strategy, and helping other Glitchzens, you're welcome to join us!

 ==How to get a wiki account==
 Here's what to do:
-*First, create an account by clicking on this red link: [[Special:UserLogin&type=signup|Signup]]. We request that you select a username that matches your Glitch username, if available.
