EU+US What is your F2P's "Oldest" achievement?

Months ago, there was a brief discussion in the F2P picture thread about determining a F2P's "date of birth"... and it's been vaguely nagging at me ever since.

@Chops had suggested simply using the date of the Level 20 achievement, because the vast-majority of characters hit Lvl-20 on the same day that they're created... but @Crystalpall pointed out that the Level 30 achievement displays the Lvl-10 "prerequisite", which can be moused-over to get an even more accurate date!

With that still filed-away in the back of my mind, I recently got-around to examining my own achievements more-carefully. It turns-out that you can actually click on any of the "completed" ones to see their prerequisites... and after systematically clicking-and-mousing through my F2P's entire archive, I found her "oldest" one:

Granted, I'm quite certain that I'd played for a few days before getting 50 Quests Completed... but as far as "verifiable evidence" is concerned, it makes today my 8th birthday! :D

So help yourself to a slice of Delicious Chocolate Cake, and let's see yours! ;)
 
Happy B-day @Sin'dor !

It's quite easy to get the chronological sorting of your achievs with the addon Character Achievements ;)

From what i saw, my character had only one idea in mind: get out of Gilneas, rush to the Darkmoon Faire to kill the ferocious Rabbit, before going to a concert to celebrate that!

And at that time, i had no idea that playing at lvl20 was a thing and that other people were doing it (and the word or concept or twink was completely absolutely unknown to me)

So yeah, Brihan was born already adult on May 6th 2018, and has a life long of 105 days of playing!
Just hoping that Shadowlands won't kill him too soon :eek:

The problem with this is that you need to be on your oldest character to see this. For example when I am on my mage which was created in 2019 I will see when my mage got the achievement and sadly my oldest character is no longer with me.

Whats the 29th month?

Well, given the Latin roots of the calendar... the 9th month is Septem'ber, and the 29th month is Septemvig'ber. ;)

It must be a pretty common birth-month, because a surprising number of the women I know seem to only increment their age every 29 months or so... :confused:

Sometimes it takes people a while to advance to the next leve.... I mean year.
