I decided to have a quick read of the manual after I did the pegasus thing: I made two or three and I tried to attack with them.

I also kept pressing Shift H CCCC instead of Shift H VVVV and ultimately realised you only needed to press H V-auto.

I thought all the God Powers were agressive. WHen I played Thor (I Think) i cast that gold mine on my enemy thinking it may reduce their Gold collection rate. WHat made it even worse is that I said to him "Yeah well take that..". And he said "Thanks"....DOH!

Another Noob event was yesterday when I made 15 Gigantes in Zelda Zone Of War only to realise they dont cause any damage physically....well insignificant amounts. I was blowing his army away for atleast 3 min before they started to die and his army was pretty much still strong. I guess you only use them to support your army.

So today I amd much better than when I was a NOOB, infact today I am a Super Noob

When I used to be a noob, 1.5 years ago, I did meteor in my city, to try and get rid of invaders.

Cleverest thing I have ever done in a random map.

Maid, I don't think that will be necessary.

When I was a noob, I used to spam hydras and minotaurs, and I hardly ever made human soldiers... I also thought pegasi could attack, like many of you did, appareantly.

Well how bout this: when I first got TT XP, I first saw the Tartarian Gate GP after worshiping Hecate (by the way what a hottie!). Thinking that the tartarian spawns would obbey my commands I thought I could invoke it near my base and make an army. It wrecked my whole frikkin' town down. Meanwhile came my opponent's army, which was egyptian, and got killed by the spawns in my own leftover town. Just when I had like 2 villagers and no resources, I realized I could just press delete to keep them from coming out again.

What about the accidental Titan gate drop. Your busy mouse clicking everywhere doing your micro and then OHcrap...you just placed the titan gate under an enemy tower, fortress or army.

He probably thought it was game over, if you lost all units.

I remember thinking that some offensive godpowers like Earthquake and Meteor Storm only affected enemy units and buildings. I really learned well after casting Tornado on an army of enemy Destroyers who were attacking my Town Center and then seeing that it just destroyed it for them.

Ahhh the good old days....

nubiest thing i ever did was... well Cast bolt on things like Hoplites and Only build Myth units. Once i even tried building a wonder in the middle of the map. Another thing was CHEAT and fight eazy computers alot. I really didn't Inporve and i became scared to fight moderates

i eventually broke my fear and now do battle vs titans and real people

Ha-ha. Nice one, tarmo_flake.

The noobiest thing I ever did was I was upset because my cities weren't as big as the ones in Age of Empires 2, so I'd cheat and make 3 of every building; armory, barracks, etc.

Haha. I always remember when I was playing the Titans I made a titan on the islands map and quickly found out they couldn't walk over water . What a waste.

ok, here's a noob.
I had no idea what the auto-queue was for...clicked on it a couple (or more) times in the Town centere and forgot about it.
Then i noticed that i was going short on resources (food) and pop cap! And when I switched view tomy Town centre i was horrified to find a huge army of 30 odd civilians just standing there doing nothing!
man...i had to turn savage and kill them all to get space for my army :-)

Well, I was playing norse wars once (for ladder) and a guy attacked my base, and he did about 1000 damage to my Hill Fort by the time I killed all his units. I then repaired my HF (Hill Fort) by the next time he came and he said "You cheater, you fixed your HF", "n00b", "Cheater". He then quiet, only to find out you can repair your HF. It doesn't matter that he left, because I would have kicked his ash anyway!

This has happend to be a few times now, its really annoying!

oh you can wait for what I can give
you know what I am so you know how I live
try to look proud but you�re not in the slightest
its happening now and it�s always been like this.

Haha to the above post, you will laugh too one day. In the noobie days I used Isis (didn't know how op and lame she was back then) and I would just spam petchutos and phoenixes (my name kinda gives away how much I love that mythical creature, not in the game, in myth) against a moderate computer on the continents maps. The petchutos killed ships galoor, and the phoenixes just kept going to the enemy island in mobs, just to get shot down by towers and tc's and migdols. Haha, I don't remember if i finished the game, last time I remember it was at the 2 hour 30 mark.

Best game ever made, don't dieeeeeeee

I once tried being the norse and made alot of villies, thinking i would ragarok to victory, but, i then realized i was loki.

Another time I got confused with implode and vortex, and used implode in the middle of my town.
