Welcome to Community Effort Online on June 27-28th!
While our hopes are to still host the official offline CEO 2020 Championships in December as announced here we wanted to spend the original weekend to spend it looking back on a decade plus of CEO Gaming events with never before seen community interviews, highlights and tournaments.
We hope everyone has been staying safe in these times. In 10 plus years of FGC events, I have never had to cancel/postpone an event. It’s in my DNA to enjoy running CEO events and I want to do something to put smiles on supporters faces even for a short weekend while we can.
For some of these highlights and memories, we would love your help. We have created a form here for past attendees to talk about their CEO experiences. Please fill it out if you can as we’ll be raffling off a couple prizes during the online event to viewers and those who have responded.

Our selection of games were chosen to represent the early community years of CEO with titles that helped CEO grow into what it is today.
