Hi everyone.
Does any of you play Travian?

For those of you who never heard of it, here's pasted the beginning of the wiki's page:

Travian is a persistent, browser-based, massively multiplayer, online real-time strategy game developed by the German software company Travian Games. It was originally written and released in June 2004 by Gerhard Müller. Set in classical antiquity, Travian is a predominantly militaristic real-time strategy game.
Travian has been translated into over 40 languages from the original German version, and has over 5 million players on over 300 game servers worldwide.In 2006, it won the Superbrowsergame Award, in the large games category.
Travian is programmed in PHP and runs in most modern browsers. Its creators may have drawn from an earlier German board game, The Settlers of Catan, for layout and the resource development theme.

I played different rounds (a rounds lasts about a year) and made some friend there, we also won almost all of them :D
At one time I even played in different servers at the same time.
It's basically a pay to win (but you can't do anything alone, that's its main "pro" I think) and seems in the years it' becoming more and more. That's why, I heard, many players left it. After all I have nice memories of it :)
I even compiled some statistic about the hero's adventures in two of these rounds:
special italian server #4
2014 italian server #6
They are both in italian but there are a lot of numbers and graphs so it shouldn't be hard to understand them..

I had something more to write at first but I forgot it along the way, sorry -_- I'll edit if I were to remember.

I used to play it on Uni days. Those sleepless nights are still fresh in my memory.

Tried it years ago, normal servers were too slow, so I played on a speed server and it consumed all my time, then I gave it away to my sitter towards the end game. Never touch the game since then.

Played it looong time ago, like.. 2006-2007?
Then one evening a guy I had a months-old beef attacked someone in our alliance and I just unloaded on him and spent the entire night coordinating attacks because the fucker wasn't sleeping as well and when, by the morning, I had all his troops destroyed, 5 cities taken and capitol in ruins... I gave my account to a guy from the alliance who lost his some time before because I felt this emptiness :-) Never played again.

There was a time in the past.. when every single person that I met, used to tell me that he/she is playing Travian.
I've never even tried to make an account and I haven't regret my decision yet.

Tl;dr : No, I've never played it.

I have tried so many browser-based MMOs, maybe 90% of them, so yes, Travia was one of them. I played for 6 months or so before i move to another one.
I quit that kind of games about 18 months ago as their player bases had been greatly reduced in comparison with what they used to be 5 - 7 years ago. Mobile based MMOs are much more populated nowadays but they are just not the kind of games i like.
