Hey to all. Just want to let you know that I joined Tribal Wars - an online role playing game. The first time I saw this was when my brother Paul was playing it on his computer. My first question was, “What’s that?” He gave me a short explanation of what it is all about and somewhat gave me the impression that it was similar to the game Age of Empires except that the speed of the game is way too sloooowwwww - taking hours to upgrade and even days to attack another village.
If it’s that slow, ain’t it boring? Actually, that was the second thing I told Paul - that the game looks boring - but for some reason he enjoyed it. Out of curiosity, I decided to join the game and with a little help from Paul himself, I’m now on my way to upgrading my village.
Did I find it boring? Now that I’m playing it, I learned that it’s not the type of game that requires your attention all the time but rather a game wherein you set a few things to do (upgrade, build, attack) then leave it to do its thing and come back minutes, hours, or even days later to check on what’s happening. So no, it’s not boring - just takes time… 
Basically, you’ll start with a small village with the basic necessities to survive. Their will also be other villages around you. The world map itself (I joined World 3) is so huge - that’s why it sometimes takes days to conquer or help another tribe.
Today, my brother Louie also joined the game and my mom is also interested in it. If you’re curious then I suggest that you join the game - it’s free anyway (though you can opt to upgrade to a premium account). You can join Tribal Wars here. Once you joined, you can also invite your friends to join using your referral URL by going to Settings -> Recruit Player.
Here’s a quick screenshot showing some of the stuff when you take a look at your village overview.
How to get started… The site provides a tutorial when you join. You can choose to go through the tutorial OR you can do what my brother told me - click the structure in the middle of your map, then upgrade timber and clay. That’s the most important thing to do in the beginning (according to Paul) since you will be needing resources. Eventually, also upgrade the other structures and iron as well. Then along the way, start building new structures and creating new people.
To cut things short and satisfy your curiosity, I suggest that you just join the game - I’m in World 3 and so are my brothers. If you join the game, kindly post your username and map coordinates in the comments section below so we can help you out. Feel free to post questions as well. Enjoy!

Have been playing the game since about September/October 2007, started up in world 9 first, and eventually spread to others including world 3. Unfortunately I’ve decided to cut back on worlds since then, and world 3 was one of those that I have deleted.
If anyone signs up to world 13 (latest is world 14, but I’m not in that), send me a mail to “shano12345″ … I’m always looking for something to do when I’m waiting for my farming & scouts to arrive and just chatting is fine with me, even if you’re on the other side of the world
