Ten and Seven
September 4th, 1997: The Lands of Solan launches on a Smaug 1.2 codebase, with Samson and myself the initial staff. Over time, we will become Alsherok, and our heavily modified Smaug 1.4 code will become the influential AFKMud base. Here I will hone my proficiencies in area building, game design, and even write a few lines of code.
September 12th, 2000: I join Tonto Clan, the last of the third wave of membership. Here I met a lot of great people. While I played a lot of great games of Age of Kings as a Tonto, I also had debates, offered advice, and ranted a lot. Indeed, you're reading this because my Rants of the Day series prompted Whir to get me into blogging, and everything I've accomplished with that. Ultimately, I went on to become one of the most popular members of the clan, and a leader of it. Those were good days.
Don't forget the alien.
