Ah, I remember it well. Thanksgiving weekend (11/25/2017), I was playing mobile app Adventure Capitalist, which I’d been playing for a little over a week at that point. It was just another dumb free2play game that I already knew I’d get over pretty soon, At one point, I tried to get some premium currency for it doing random surveys and stuff. One thing it asked me to do was get to the Iron Age in FoE in a week.
I’m not entirely sure what grabbed me, but I pretty much immediately stopped playing AC and have been playing FoE since. The game was a puzzle and wasn’t one that was going to require lots of money just to get anywhere. I joined a pretty terrible guild at first: the leaders were nonexistent, GE never opened level 2. Someone sent a message, I don’t even remember what it was about, but then he turned to recruit me for the guild he was in. Said “if you want to start winning, come over here”. The rest is history.
