OT: Clash of Clans

Does anyone else play this game? I find it fun, but it's very addicting.

FOSTERS: Australian for defense

I played for about 6 months then got kicked out by the 13 year old clan leaders...got pissed ...never went back!

Would you ever consider playing it again? I need members for my clan, badly. I promise I won't kick you out!

shame

I'm not proud to say I spend way too much time on that thing.

Yep, I am a clammer.

I see the ads online and occasionally on tv and I have no idea what the game is about, anyone want to describe it to me?

It's really just Age of Empires simplified. No exploration, just develop your town/village, upgrade it, and attack others. You can join a clan which allows you to receive reinforcements from them and now they have where you can do a clan versus clan war in which the success and failures of the rest of your group dictate the outcome of the war. You can control how you attack but your defense is automated since you can be attacked at any time.

Basically it's this incredibly addictive game that'll allow you to build your own town. You can fight off goblins as well as other players eventually joining or creating a clan to fight against other clans that feature people from around the world. I guess the best example I have is if you watched the tv show Vikings it's kinda like that in a sense that you join forces with other people and go to war with other kingdoms while maintaining your town.

+1 for the Vikings reference. The gods will reward you

I waste plenty of time playing it. Have been in the same Virginia Tech group since signing up back during the snow storms this winter.

I play. I'm in one of the Hokies clans.

If there's a tkp clan out there, let me know the name and I'm in 8^)

Started playing while sitting at the firehouse at night. Now that we have moved and I'm going back to school and my wife has started her new job I probably play it too much. But I play with a group of firefighter from around the country so we discuss shop a lot.

Wet stuff on the red stuff.

I'm in and yes it's a sad state of affairs. Tried getting in to "HokieStone1872" and kept getting denied. Reminds me of ol' school Warcraft. And when you're a retro-grouch it's a perfect time-suck. But if you're in an adult clan it's good banter and good donations, leadership. Pretty fun...

NNNEEERRRDS!!!

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

Oh, and I came upon a UVA clan member and attacked it out of principle alone. Not much payout and the victory was fairly empty if only for intra-state rivalry enjoyment... Kinda like college football.

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

Please, somebody make a tkp clan... I want to combine my two big time-sucks

Which clan should I be looking to join if I start?

"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Colonel Sanders via Ricky Bobby

It'll take you a little bit of time before you can join a clan after you start playing, but once you do look for a clan named "Hokies". Our shield is red/gold because orange isn't an option I guess.

whats the design on your shield? I was in VTech Hokes for 2 days, then one of the buggers booted and banned me for not contributing enough! Now I am in a different hokie clan.....

Our name is simply "Hokies". Red is on the left and gold is on the right. There's a flame-like symbol on the top right. Our donation ratio requirement is 1:4 which is pretty easy to obtain. Our total trophies is 14600 right now.

cool. I just sent you a join request

You guys are full? Dammit...

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

Keep checking back. If an opening pops up, I'll post here. I would say that we have turnover at least once a week. Odds are that something will open up this week.

Spot just opened up.

Just joined VT Hokies. Will see how it goes. My other clan (I have an iTunes and Play account -yeah I know) is a full adult clan that's got their shit tigether. SUCH a time suck...

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

It's like you're in my head - I just finished Plants v Zombies 2, and was looking to fill the hole in my soul something to waste most of my remaining time on Earth for another fun game. I started playing right around the time you posted this.

Now I look in on it constantly.

Oh man plants vs zombies 2 would make me ANGRY

If anyone's looking for a clan search JSTONE it's mostly Clemson kids but I'm the leader and I'd love more Hokies

My 8 year-old son started playing last week at the request of classmates and LOVES it (his first online gaming, which must be some sort of 21st century childhood milestone). I think I will jump on there but will probably need some advice from this forum, since he is an excellent gamer but I am not.

I still play it. It's good for killing time when you have nothing to do on the metro or whatever.

"Now Miami wants to talk about it." *Cue Enter Sandman*

I'm in a clan called Hokies4Hire (which interestingly enough only has 3 VT alums). Wouldn't mind switching to a more "hokie" base clan and isn't filled with 10 year olds, if anyone has any suggestions

Those poor 10 year olds will never get a job. Damn you economy!

Started a clan called Gravity tasters.

My clan rolls deep

I have a friend who plays. When he talks about it, he abbreviates Clash of Clans and pronounces the 3 letter abbreviation as a word. And uses this word as a verb. It was rather concerning and confusing the first time he mentioned this.

wow

Rick Monday... You Made a Great Play...

I also root for: The Keydets, Army, TexAggies, NY Giants, NY Rangers, ATL Braves, and SA Brahmas

Do we have a tkp clan yet?

"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Colonel Sanders via Ricky Bobby

Somebody needs to make this happen

There's already 7 "tkp" clans on CoC. None of which have anything to do with VT. I'll start a "The Key Play" clan if everyone wants to join.

I'll join. Are there different servers for Android and IOS players does anyone know?

"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Colonel Sanders via Ricky Bobby

No, there isn't. Both play with one another, you just have no idea what each person is using.

If we can rally some more people to join, I'll make the clan tomorrow. If anyone else is interested, let us know...

I just started kinda recently (just got to the point where I can join a clan two days ago) but I could join.

VT Class of '12 (MSE), MVBone, Go Hokies!

Just started about a month ago, and would definitely be interested in a TKP clan. Someone needs to make this happen...

Just searched for the key play and TheKeyPlay. Couldn't find either. Is it made yet?

I just created the clan. Search for "The Key Play". I made it so anyone can join for now but we'll be more selective in the near future. We need at least 10 members to participate in clan wars

I joined. Name is Dinger.

"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Colonel Sanders via Ricky Bobby

i just joined as well

Joined. I'm Rabuddhafrid.

VT Class of '12 (MSE), MVBone, Go Hokies!

Just joined as well. Name is VTHokie4

I'm en route. I need to finish up a war in my other clan. Handle of Abdls

torn... I'm in a VT clan but now I want in on this one since we can talk football whilst waiting for troops and builders to finish shit... and my other clan is pretty "burl"... may hop on to visit/assist during wars every once in awhile... this is awesome, more reasons to NEVER leave the interwebs.

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

Ok, I joined, Egbert_Hokie for handle.
I'll work my way up to a clan castle repair.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

just joined - same handle.

The proud "V" in Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University spelled out in chest paint.
North Endzone @ 03 Miami.

Just joined as well.

Ill need to get my trophies up before I can join :-\

Sent clan req a few days ago. May I be accepted?

I saw the guys discussing if this was the same Adrian from TKP.
If you don't get a response soon, we're in a war that will end about 10PM eastern, resend the request.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

No worries I figured I needed to make sure I was who I was

I'll hop over from another clan when I get the chance -the one I'm on is A Hokie-based clan but they allow others to join, talk is minimal and not as educated on VT football and (and this is a HUGE "and") they don't let me curse... it's frustrating when attempting to express myself -THAT'S HALF OF MY F$@CKEENG VOCABULARY!!!

"...sticks and stones may break my bones but I'm gonna kick you repeatedly in the balls Gardoki!"

Anyone know how to reconnect with their Clan account on a new phone?

Outside it's night time, but inside it's LeDay

Unless you tied it to your facebook or google plus account, you may not be able to recover it. You can try emailing support, but they weren't helpful when my phone died. Had to start over.

@historyhokie.bsky.social

If anyone is looking for alternate clash of clans to join search for the VT Hangbelly clan. Family friendly and looking for active members.

Finally joined TKP, Ericcb51 in CoC

Excellent username and profile picture, just sayin.

if anyone plays this and wants to join us search "the key play"
