I have a question..... What are the Viz points for? I am fairly new and HAVE NO Idea what they are?

When you play games in the Retro Game Room, you are 'renting' them, which costs Viz. The amount of Viz depends on what console system the game is for. For example, N64 games costs the most to play, and Atari costs the least. You can also go to the item shop to buy gear to increase your RPG stats that you see on your profile. Right now, they serve no purpose other than looking cool, but David is planning on creating a Battle Arena in which users have character sprites that you use to battle other Vizzed users, and your RPG stats will have use. You might also be able to find use for Viz in the Vizzed Market forum. Every once in a while, you will find people willing to sell real stuff for Viz instead of real cash. This is rare, but it happens. 

How do we earn them other than taking the newbie quiz?

You can do these things to earn Viz other than the newbie quiz:

- Refer people (100 Viz per referral)
- Post (the higher in position you are, the more Viz you get when posting, make long posts for max viz)
- Get replies in your threads
- Visit vizzed while signed into your account (100 Viz per day when visiting the first time of the day)
- Vizzed Battle Arena? (Is it possible that you can earn Viz in the battle arena?)
- Other people send you Viz (Don't beg for viz, it isn't allowed)

I guess that is all the possible ways you could earn Viz.

Here are some other ways I know-
Sell games (The screen of the game will eventually lead up to sell this game for [insert Viz amount here])
Rate the game (There is a little box over to the right where you sell ur games, use the drop down and pick a number based on how much you like the game, the Viz you get will be shown to the right of that)
Rate other people's screenshots (Although this will only give you 2 viz, it is another way to earn it)
Rate a review (Basically same as the Screenshots but you rate a review)
Spell check (This limits newbies to how many posts they can put on I believe, but if you aren't one, it gives you 5 Viz every time you spell check, even if your a newbie)
Sell layout (This option is only for Trusted members and above)
Contests (Also a fun way to challenge yourself, the Viz amount if you win or the places are posted in the challenge creator's post, the newest challenges will be posted just below on where you search for games)
That's all I think these guys left out, it's hard, you are not able to do it, you are only able to do it a limited amount of times, or it gives off low viz, but there ya go, a list of all the things you can do

Stevie 764 : Where is the battle arena? I would like to know because it would be awesome to find out! Then I can share it with my friend who referred me... 

I just started my account last night.  I noticed (and read on here, where it was mentioned) about the game "rental."  To what extent is this permanent, or are Viz deducted for every play, or is it by month, etc.? 

huygeb : Don't post in threads that have been ignored for almost a year. Good question, though. The game rental is permanent. You don't get Viz deducted for every play. Once you pay the viz, you're done. And if you don't want to play a game anymore, you can sell it and get Viz back for doing so but once you sell a game you can still spend Viz on it again if you decide you want to play the game again.

Sorry, I should have paid more attention to the dates.  But what about saving? I realize save states would most likely be local, but if (for instance) playing Zelda I save in-game, does it save to my account?  Could I play that file on another computer?  Or does it save to my computer's cache/history?
