Back on 24/7 Convoy. I was scrolling through the list of servers, since I'd only had TF2 for about a week at that point, and played five or six times. When I saw the eGO servers, I was like, "eGO? That's a rather strange name. I bet they're all a bunch of elitists or something." However, I figured that turbine sounded cool, and the server was nearly full.
I played on Turbine regularly for a couple of weeks after that, and the proceeded to join up!
