So it's quite possible that he was the first conqueror, and that the conqueror changed many times at that point. We'll need some really old hands to comment

Sweet, it would be nice if we could put together a list of conquerors from Bondra all the way up to alstergren. I'll start the list inst case anyone knows number 2, although I doubt we'll be able to find too much. If anyone knows who was right before alster we could work backward too. Yes, I'm bored.

1. Bondra


...
Alstergren

In fact, it would appear that Conqueror wasn't introduced until the end of May 2007:

I'm pretty sure conqueror rank existed when I first joined the site, Blitz was the conqueror then - maybe he can shed some light on it.

The was no such thing as a Conqueror term or symbol back in 2006 and early 2007. I know when I came in August 2006, there was a scoreboard and rankings, but no conqueror. I was #1 for all those months, so I would of remembered. I think the conqueror term came out sometime in mid year 2007, not sure exactly, somewhere around there, give or take a few months, they also changed the rankings some, a couple of different times throughout the year. No one kept track of stats really in 2006 until I came along (well robinette and myself). I did because I thought it would give something for players to shoot for. However, I posted a thread of the 1st 5 players ever to reach # 1 on the scoreboard, but had to have a minimum requirement of 3000 score. From 2006 myself and robinette secretly kept track of a lot of stats and shared information amongst one another, at times we would shared some with maniacmath, sully800 who was a math wizard and liked stats and graphs, then we shared some for info. with others who were early in super elite user group like pedronicus, and in time we shared some with johnnyrocket24 because it was getting to become a really big job, then the public, then the threads and posts came, a lot liked them early on, some did not, hard to please everyone. Overall, we thought it was good for CC.

I remember when the rank of conqueror was created, but what I'm really looking for is who was #1 on the scoreboard from the beginning up till the people we know.

like others said george, it changed so so much early on it was not worth keeping track, and it mattered none who was 1st place at 1215 score, and or 1303 score, starting out there were dozens who may of had theses scores, so, we just kept track from 3000 score on, it was much more respectable.

However, if this helps out at all, The very 1st player ever to reach 2000 score was a player named brunnings and pilate was the 1st to reach 2500 score and alstergren 3000 score. Other notables who were around scores of 1800-2500 were scorba, highborn, qeee1, zawbanjito, bretzsky, sully800, ak_iceman, robinette, master chief, osujacket and pedronicus. There may of only been around 10 to 12 total players that had reached over 2000 score from Jan 2006 to July 2006, and perhaps only half of them kept around that until the site starting growing more. Only 2 had ever hit 3000 score until September 2006. It was a hard grind then as the pool of players was so small.

Blitz gets back to #1.Congrats pal

Congrats, dude!

We should just have a small symbol show on the homepage whenever Blitz gets conqueror, these threads are getting too long and numerous from the several times he gets there...

Congrats once again Blitz, once again taking the top spot.

Congrats once again Conqueror B.

I believe "Jork" was #1 for quite a while when I came on in early 2007; Blitz may remember this....He came on in 11/06,,held #1 at 3495 before he quit the site. 80% win rate playing majority triples games. Very respectable player.
