For me, it was a sad bloke named mccartmz. Back in 2009, he was just a wee little lad but was unable to live longer than 12 hours on the site. In that time he was decimated in 2 games. I suspect that owen got to him before anyone knew he was even here.

Zero games zero posts, sad day indeed

1 game, Greek. Fascinating.

I got the best one! shockers4life
So one night, back in 2011, shockers4life decided he'd fancy some online risk. After a nice google search, he found out about CC. So he goes through the whole process of creating an account, manages to stay 1 minute on the site, and... that was too much for his attention span. He wasn t going to bother to even try a game!

At least you can rest assured that he is still out there, somewhere, continuing to shock the world. Either that or he is into some weird stuff with his lady friend.

I have uncovered the curious case of ryantong. ryantong joined January 14, 2007, and was last seen on the site November 6, 2008. He played only three games, the last ending January 16, 2007. ryantong was guested, likely for being a multi. So, this guy was bored of playing Harry Potter Make Believe! with his friends, logged on to find this site, tried it out by joining some games, playing a round, and quitting. For whatever reason this dude returned nearly two years later, only to say "nah" and go back to playing Boba Fett Assassin Fun! with his friends. I believe he was likely 14 when he first joined, and had already experimented with Mt. Dew.

yrrah, my father's online handle. I most likely told him about the site, and we made an account together. As you can read in his sig, it's quite possible we came from takeaplay.net, a site that died years ago if it ever lived.

No shit! I don't remember him getting busted. This was an even more curious case than I realized. Props to jdw35 for a great thread idea.

same, except he stayed 2 minutes

Ah, cookie_man, what a glorious 23.5hrs he spent on this website. Hailing from Portugal, where cookies are a national delicacy, this player decided to try his hand at online risk. I think he quickly realised that his name wasn't the most apt for a war game and, knowing he would get crushed by the mighty warriors Jack_Axe and Crazy Canuck, gave up rather swiftly. Nobody knows what happened to him after that: did he return with a more battle-ready handle? Did he retreat into the Portuguese slums to bake cookies for the locals? One can only speculate.

I also looked at the player who joined after me, MTL Hammer, who spent a solid three minutes of this website. I believe he was actually looking for this website. You'd think he'd have noticed from the front page that this wasn't a place for women's fashion, but it seems he registered and then quickly departed, though not before opening Live Chat and apologising for his rude entrance, eh.

I was hoping some "old timers" would post on here to see if we could bring up any names of some of the former greats/active members of the community. Its actually pretty fun to type in a random user number and see who you get!

I decided to check into who joined immediately after I did as well. MxHT413 spent less than a minute on this site.

Joined one minute after I joined, and quit within the same minute. Nowhere near as exciting as the now infamous ryantong.

FREAQ
This player has 40% turns taken. Has only played 1 game, a loss. That was in 2008, last visited the site in 2011.

------Well,before I speak of my bookends...I'll tell of my notice of Conquer Club...I was house sitting for my brother and his family...It was 3 o'clock in the morning...In August 2008...I have tried regular Risk before on the computer...You could download the trail for 10 days...I did it once on my PC...So as I was playing Fantasy Football for the first time...That year...I was doing a mocked draft...I was also looking at risk on the computer...When I came across Conquer Club...
------I looked C.C. over for a bit...I got back to my fantasy mock draft...I went on to other stuff...Now fast forward to New Year's Eve 2008(Dec.31st)...It was afternoon...I was waiting to see what everyone else in my family was doing later that night...So I tried to get away from the Holiday craziness...I went on my PC...I seen my Icon for The Risk game I tried months before...I remembered Conquer Club...Just as I was going to the site...My daughters came in...Like kids always do... ...As I was joining...I thought of a war name I could use...Gone With The Wind and my Father came to mind...Selena grabbed the keyboard. "I want to type it",she said...She typed as I told her how to spell Confederate...She then typed SS...Her and Sofia then started fighting...Spilling Sofia's grape juice all over me...
------They ran from the room...I joined World 2.0/1 as my first 2 games(came in second in both)...Didn't even realize they were freestyle...Before they finished(My 1st game,the guy who won,was 0-50...till we played...I am happy I could be part of his 1st win.)...I won 5 in a row...7 out of my first 10 games...Win number one came against Colemanus on Soviet Union map...Win number 2 came against steon2007 on the Africa map...I've continued to play these members for years...I think steon2007 stopped in 2014/15...But Colemanus still plays...THEY WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE MEMBERS ON THE SITE...TWO CLASS ACTS...
-------AS FOR MY BOOKENDS...I AM SURROUNDED BY CANADIANS...
-------Before me...joined, "DeeperDesigns" ....on the site for 6mins...joined 2 games...deadbeated both games...
-------After me...joined, "klaudp" ....was on the site for 11mins after joining...Never joined a game... ...But at least klaudp has a perfect record...Never deadbeated...
---------AFTER A WEEK WENT BY AFTER I JOINED...I BECAME GOLD TO PLAY SPEED GAMES...TO FEEL LIKE I WAS PLAYING A GAME AT A TABLE WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS...WITH ALL THE CHANGES IN SPEED...SPEED HAS DIED...SO SAD...MAYBE THE HIGH COMMAND WILL FIX THEIR MISTAKES... ConfederateSS.out!(The Blue and Silver Rebellion)...

f*ck off serbia!!! your less than a minute guy just beat my minute guy. It's a big deal to me. Ok I'll do my next guy, maybe he's done less than a minute too:

anglecake25 was an Irish anglican proud of his roots.

He came to CC with all the enthousiasm in the world and joined 3 games.
one of which he actually played:
https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=8590774
After a first turn where he had the great idea to attack only neutrals against his cook opponent; he tried out the cool feature called gamechat. "Hi" he said.
After 30s, he still had no reply. "Bye" he said. And that's when he decided to quit CC FOREVER

oh and holy shit! I played against him in what was probably one of my very first games on this site:
https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=8587513

cool... another forum game in the GD... can we get this sticked along with the 20 other stickied items? thank you...-Jésus noir

Lol, a colonel losing one of their first games to a private. Embarrassing.

I was preceded by Marlboro420, who managed to join 3 games, never said anything. Was kicked out of all three for missing too many turns. Earned across the board 1's from one player.
This was his whole 17 minute career on CC.

I was followed by ruru0711, who spent 4 minutes on the site, joined no games and has not been see since.

The first player to stick was 7 places after me, jeff16, who is still an active freemium as of this last July and who has risen to the rank of Cook after 3930 games in which he has won 8%.

This is kind of fun, just spelunking like this.

jeff16 sounds like a multi. 8%???

Bay+Don was from Jamaica.After searching for porn on-line he came across double cc.He joined tankgirl99 for a little action but apparently the world wasn't what he had expected and he deadbeated poor tankgirl99. Joined:Sat Aug 20, 2016 1:39 pmLast visited:Sat Aug 20, 2016 1:40 pm.

- Mine was some dude from Canada, zippythechimp? He lasted a whole minute, then went back to the zoo?

Exactly, since when i started playing i was a colonel and these guys didn't have better ranks than that!

It would be pretty fun to see how we used to play in our first games. I know I didn t know any attack stat and i would even attack 3v3.
