    Read about it on rockpapershotgun back in early June. A dark time when archers could one hit kill knights, griefing was rampant (between the troll vote kicking and how easy it was for one asshole to take your gold and throw it to the other guys), and we were all Peasants. A barbarous time.

    Why, we didn't even have gold lettering to identify the cool dudes.

    I joined during build 56, thanks to 420chan. Those were the days when you could jump off skybridges and take no damage, then run away with the flag. I miss the later builds where builders could just drop stone from the sky, so much fun to crush knights chasing after you with it.

    I just joined last week on Tuesday or Wednesday. I was browsing the Minecraft forums on GameFAQs, and someone started a topic about KAG. I watched the youtube video they provided, then immediately afterwards I downloaded KAG and started playing.

    The day I started playing KAG or the first time I played KAG? :P The first time I tried the game was when the first public build was released, me and two friends tried it out and agreed that it was okay but we uninstalled it the same day.

    Now, I can't say when I actually started playing the game. What that even means? :D I remember installing the game again when the bigger graphics update came along and introduced background for the map and so forth. Then the blog post from MM introduced plans for the future premium members and I bought the game. But I still play the game as randomly as ever. :)

    I'm another May 11 guy. I liked Geti, and so as soon as he posted this new game he was working on, I gave it a shot.
    I played it for three days before making a comment, though, by which time I had decided that too much funky shit happened, and it needed some refinement. I'm happy to say that while there's still loads of funky shit going down, it's much higher quality shit, and the funk is something I can dance to! :D

    Think I found out about it from RPS as well, but in September.

    Ive just had a look for the particular thread but i seem to have lost it, i found out about kag way back when MM posted a long post on the datarealms forum about his thoughts on the new build of cortex command, (i think it was build 24/25) The first reply to his post was some random forumer saying, "why dont you build a game and see how hard it is" and the guy afterwards said something along the lines of, "wow, you have chosen the one person on the entire forum who you cant use that argument with".

    I read a little further and found out that it was the same guy who made Soldat and i LOOOVED mutliplayer soldat with my college mates years ago in class so had to check out the latest project. I cant remember what build it was on but i lost track of it for a while to come back and find much much larger ambitions to when i left. Only been playing properly for about a month now but i remember finding it earlier in the year when there was only the gold collecting mode.

    as i said though, much bigger ambitions these days :D :P

    I believe you're referring to a post made by Geti, not MM. And yeah, that poor bastard who posted first picked the wrong target! :P

    I started KAG when I had to use linux. I was looking for Linux games, and I landed on this.

    Note to the develloper, if anybody reads:
    Thats a really good strategy to promote the game, make more advertisment on linux plattforms, you know that good linux games are rare.

    I started playing KAG when it got reviewed at Jayisgames, and have been hooked since. (That was around test build 160) I love the direction Geti and MM are going:D

    I was introduced to KAG by a Justin.tv caster called Cel, he was showing everybody KAG and I was like "HO-LY Shit, I need to play this." It was around...gosh I can't remember but I was recruited to HA by Loki and Pizza only they know when I started because the first day I played I was told to go join HA :L
