I've been playing the Evony game for a couple of months and find it pretty interesting - so long as I keep logging in often enough not to miss the first few hours off beginners protection (7days or until you upgrade your town hall past level 4). I've had a few re-starts as I learn the game but the strategic building game is pretty cool.

Make sure you follow the "quests" help - there's a button for it in your dashboard area. A repteated tip to go with what was just said above...DONT upgrade your "Townhall" too fast. Stay under level 5 or else 'beginners protection' comes off. Try to build your resources up - that's "food," "iron," "stone," and "lumber." Later in the game, of course, you can buy resources, but for the starting period, make sure to build as high as you can.

You can build resources to a higher level than 4 but some other buildings, you won't be able to advance levels until your Townhall is past level 4. Naturally, if you have resources stockpiled, once your beginners protection comes off, you'll be able to do a lot of quick buying and selling in order to keep building and stay away from getting CLOBBERED.

Also - if you keep your stats as far as buildings go (lower level buildings), the pro players have a tendency (sometimes) to leave you alone for a little while, thinking your space/town isn't very worthy. This tactic works for about another WEEK's worth of play time while you continue to hone your resources and "skills" at your academy.

Good luck - hope to see you there!

Zero Points For Homeless Awareness Content

I've been involved sort of half-heartedly with a game that was promoted through Facebook a while back. It's called HoboWars. The game has an urban setting and members are hobos or homeless people who must navigate around a city to do such activities as panhandling outside of a store, attempting to go to school to get smarter (starting from grade 1??), and trying to avoid a thorough SH*T-kicking at the hands of other hobos.

I don't even have to ask how much creators of this game relied on the most general, obvious and dramatic stereotypes of hobos or homeless people, but a store which sells weapons to hobos in this game so they can beat each other or protect themselves from being beaten on is just a bit too much!

I know it is a game - and as I already said, I've been "INVOLVED" with playing this online RPG game for a while. Mostly, I log in and find out that dozens of players have attacked me while I have been logged out, and that the players with the highest scores have earned 5-digit money amounts in order to purchase weapons with which to beat me while I'm away lol

Naturally, the game strays quite far from real life situations. In which city that you know of are hobos able to come up with from $6, 000 to $13, 000 to purchase a long length of pipe for either protection or a weapon? lol

Some of the weapons cost 5-digit sums!

I continue to shake my head at the "storyline" here, though the game has some interesting features like many other RPGs online. If I can continue to barely stomach the graphics and tone of this game, and it's insinuations that hobos are stupid (in need of education, starting with grade 1) and horrendously violent (a weapon store?), then I am still interested to see what I find around town in this game - aside from other player/hobo interactions.

One part of the game that I do find interesting, and from where nobody inside the game seems to actively beat on me, is the section where I can wander around just looking for cans, bottles, dropped money, and odd items. I gather a lot of money sometimes during my wandering, and then I can take the money to my bank account.

Strangely enough - I am a hobo in the game - who has no less than a tidy sum of $11, 000 in my bank account most of the time!

I purchased a FORK - for PROTECTION and as a weapon - for a mere $6, 000 a couple of months ago...

I purchased a CUP - a styrofoam cup - to use defensively as a weapon a couple of months ago, too. I cannot remember how much I paid for the cup now but it was a 4-digit cost to me - you know, the kind of styrofoam cup that would be FREE to any hobo in real life? One that a hobo would get for free when getting a drink at the doctor's (even a free health clinic) office - and would also contain a drink of free water or juice?

Perhaps I just continue to play this game out of that same kind of human mind phenomenon which makes people stand and stare at serial killer photographs in newspapers after the serial killers are incarcerated for life........ there's no purpose in this - nobody will RUN INTO the serial killer again, but everyone gawks and stares...

Morbid curiosity!

I was unable to post for quite a while. The google-bots set my blog aside to check it for unique content versus s-pam posts.

Naturally, my blog checked out a-okay, however, Google sure took a long time to get around to verifying that my posts are original content!

Since I was last able to post, I have advanced nicely in the Gladiatus role-playing game, I am happy to say.

I have attained level 19 with 31+ 'honour' points!

Anyhow, be reminded that Google takes spam seriously - and do make original posts as much as possible so that the big G doesn't label your blog as one with duplicate content.

That's all for now - I have just logged in to Gladiatus and tried to set up for battle in the arena but the competition right now is quite well above my league, so I won't stay in the arena. I'll have to settle for going to pick a different kind of battle at some other location on the map in the game.

BTW - The Gladiatus online game also added a new section on the map in the game. It's called the area of 'Grimwood' and grim, indeed, it is - if you're not careful where you wander!

That's where I'm headed right now - into Grimwood to track down a Bandit for Publican.

Wish me luck!
