    I got busy at work and had to stop for about a year. I want to start my journey from scratch. Any thoughts for a path to start. I played as a kid and am rusty. It comes back pretty quickly once I start playing regularly.

    Welcome back Jon! I would suggest going through the skill courses and see if you want to brush up on anything: https://tonypolecastro.com/skills/

    But I would jump right back into the daily challenges as soon as possible. Based on your experience you should be able to pick up from there. There is not need to repeat anything, TAC is already cyclical and has repeated elements.

    I did a similar thing… I started AC about 2 and a half years ago and I really did not make a good start. I’d played for years so I figured I’d just get straight to the challenges… well, that didn’t work out. So I recently returned (about 2 months ago now I reckon) and I followed the formula that Tony lays out in Pete’s link to the Quick Start Guide. The 30 Days to Mastery and the 5 Day Routine Challenge are essential! Take the time to do those as written. I’ve played on and off for around 35 years and I made more progress in those 35 days than the rest of the time combined. It really helps! Enjoy your journey!

    PS – for some reason Pete’s link is not working for me so I’ll try this… https://tonypolecastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/TAC_User_Guide-v5.pdf

    If that doesn’t work, a link to the guide should be on the left side under Downloads: Quick Start Guide. Refer to it often whenever you are not sure how to proceed.
