Old Farts Represent!

[schnuffler]

Tramp Stamp revolutionised the IPH game with the Type A / Type B building differences becoming common knowledge.

I can't remember the name of the crazy guy who had all manner of theories about how to get the M4's.

Using all your points to build up attack and defense instead of energy and stamina.

[schnuffler]

I was just a young noob lurking for hints, but that's a tale for another day.

I remember.

[Mystruss]

Great thread!!!

I remember when I won $100mil on the scratchies and bought my first LTB. I thought it was Christmas!
I remember when I hit 100k attack and did the happy dance. How times have changed....

Back in those old collect 10's, final prize if you was lucky had 300/300 stats.
I remember chasing the one with free banking, was the first time I bought gold, I spent 3 vaults and got nothing.
Yet the 3 after I got for free.
I remember being put on, and taken off the Indian hitlist 3 times.
I remember them all pretending to hate me on the forum, yet talking to me like old mates in pm, was all part of the game.
I remember being banned in game for avoiding the swear filter, now people can say what they want without comeback.
I remember reaching the shark tank, and loving life up there after worrying what it would be like.
I remember when cheats were hounded off the forum and out of the game, rather than recruited by he top teams.

Most of all, I remember the days where tips were shared, help was given, people were friendly and every thread wasn't either 1: someone whining or 2: SAS Vs TaW like anybody else cares.

The whining is what has made the helpful people like tramp stamp leave the forum.

I remember :
Trying to farm m4's but only getting 10 or so
Farming the first non consumable explosives
Wondering if I would ever have enough money to buy the French restaurant .
I was recruited to my current guild by a now retired player who I kept robbing , then he would rob me . We decided to be allies . His was 35k/40k and I was 38k / 36 k. My first DL was 656 k with an iph of 1 mil . I thought he was the best player .

Wasn't it Kung or something like that? His theories were bordering on witchcraft....LOL!

[mxz]

Mmm, spreadsheets.

Allhail's theories and solo work on game data that no one understood and just thought he was crazy...

[Dipstik]

I was told there would be no spreadsheets...

Shut up Brian.


P.s. You want to see old school? Look at MXZ's signature. That mess ain't been changed cents Nixon was in office.

[Lupo..]

I remember 20-0 all you farts.

[Dipstik]

it was 10-0. Always "from behind" if I remember right

[colec023]

Back when attacks would give you $30k. Back when there was strategy for building IPH. Back when a def building and consumable explosives actually helped your stats. Back when 60 gold for a 30 atk weapon was good. Back when we had exploding consumables like the turkey, football and snow balls.

Ahhh back in the day....

[Dipstik]

I don't think holiday explosives count as "back in the day."

I remember Droid and Ios event being separate, getting the first epic boss on Droid, and farming TLC's all day long with 100% drop rate.

[Thatkidyouknow]

I remember the first rb and having my syndicate only complete easy but that 14k item was the best item in my top 45 then
