I have tried out this game since the very beginning, under a different Facebook account (no longer used, deleted), since I played Backyard Monsters with my friends at that time, and both games are by KIXEYE. However, I am mostly into Army Attack and Empires and Allies, both military-themed games, and even more abstract, with both of them already closed by the time I made this post. However, I have watched all the War Commander videos and visited this wiki often, and soon after in October 2012, I started playing this game on a new Facebook account. However, I didn't progress very far, and I went into a hiatus again. Until early 2015, which I first played this game as Mulliganaceous. And so until April 2015 which I took a hiatus again. And I made a return, again as Mulliganaceous on September 2017. Please note that KIXEYE does not allow multi-accounting; my Fb account I used to play War Commander are gone, and I only play as Mulliganaceous.

I am also an administrator and a bureaucrat nominee of Candy Crush, a game I first noticed rapidly overshadowing even Zynga's most popular game at that time in late 2012 and early 2013. Though I initially dismissed this game as too simplistic, I am intrigued about how this company adds new elements every few episodes during the earlier years since the game's launch. For the first few years I don't have much to contribute, but since Feb 2017 I decided to return to this game, and seriously work on extracting configurations using F12 tricks. Though Candy Crush is past its peak popularity, it still remains one of the top games in terms of popularity, and my contribution as the config extractor ensures that I will stay on this wiki until the game's theoretical closure.

I am surprised that War Commander is alive and going relatively well for over six years, and how completely changed this game has been. There has been rants and complaints, but the forums are still active to this day, and that having rants and complaints can be a good thing, as it is definitely better than leaving and no longer contributing to the game. It outlasted the once popularity-topping Cityville, as it lasted less than five years. It outlasted both of the social games I actually played, with Empires and Allies lasting just less than two years, and Army Attack lasting around five and a half years. All of them also showed very poor forum activities in the last months of its lifespan. Hopefully Kixeye is able to convert this game to HTML5 of Steam for desktop players, while player progress is saved before Flash's downfall at year 2020.
