I left my phone at work 📱 ...What can I do so I feel like I'm still playing?

JonahTheBard · May 30, 2019, 3:38pm

Obviously, talking to my wife, playing Nerf with the kids or enjoying the local park are completely unreasonable ideas

What can I do at home so that I feel like I’m still enjoying the roller-coaster that is E&P?

My thoughts so far…

Rename one of my children ‘Alpha Gryphon’ and throw something at them once every 4 hours.
Dig up the garden looking for iron
Eat a gluten and wheat and bread free ham sandwich
Tell my wife to wave whenever I poke her
Ask for change at the shops and sulk if they give me any silver coins
Sit in bed wearing just a cape and pair of gloves
Design a ‘board game’ version of E&P with coloured marbles, dice and an 800 page rule book

Try to color and swap your floor’s tiles!

If you are the adventurous traveler type, maybe you can visit a desert to find some darts or a volcano for some rings.

If you like the thrill give your kids some chainmail shirts and throw some poison darts

Dress up as your favorite HOTM.
Hunt down your neighbors, and eat them. Don’t feel bad about it, they’re just feeders compared to you anyway.
Use their bones and belts to craft mana pots. You’re gonna need those when the police titans starts looking for you.
If you can’t win against said titans, fill your bathtub with water. Sink in till you start taking damage…
Game Over…

I guess those suggestions are kinda mean, my bad

I’ll wear the wings, but not a fan of the new underwear

Go to the store for a 6-pack of WE flasks

If you have a tropical fish tank, stare at it longingly while burning £50 notes. When you’re out of money, have one of your family point and go “Ha ha!” Simpsons-Nelson style.

or…just install bluestacks on any PC.

KLinMayhem · May 30, 2019, 4:02pm

bahahahahaha this x10

Time for a bedroom tournament. Prepare your def and hope for less than 4 losses. Get orbs and some trap tools.

Just call your wife Aife and your done. You may show her Richards hammer. She can steal your mana, too. Try to get 3 in a row and don’t forget to raise your talents for a delay.

You probably will leave the phone at work a lot of times for such rare events in the future.

SirGorash · May 30, 2019, 4:05pm

How about not wearing underwear then, it’d attract even more policemen… er titans.

JonahTheBard · May 30, 2019, 4:25pm

I’m F2P…so I’ll have to stand in the pet shop and not buy anything

Bruno82 · May 30, 2019, 4:29pm

Start looking for geckos in the garden, calling them Muggy.

JonahTheBard · May 30, 2019, 4:43pm

I’ve suggested it…and been Silenced

Saphirra · May 30, 2019, 4:52pm

This made me laugh till i about cried. I’ll try and add mine, [though u might have your phone by now,].

Feed your kids lots of ham and tell them they’ll level up soon.

Put your kids on the offensive side, and throw pine cones

ChoppedLiver · May 30, 2019, 4:52pm

“Borrow” a phone from your wife or children, make it so they can’t find you obviously, and proceed to install E&P, log in with your account and… profit!

Then, you must post an “You know you've been playing Empires too much when” entry to confess what you’ve done.

Saphirra · May 30, 2019, 4:53pm

Ooh, this is good.

Rachel1 · May 30, 2019, 5:18pm

Well you could always go back to work, break into the office and take your phone back. Then you could drive to the closest parking lot and play E&P. Or better yet set the game on auto play while you drive

TheBadShepherd · May 30, 2019, 5:53pm

Throw various meats, gloves and warm coats at family members while screaming “ASCEND!!!”
