Ok, there I was, for the first time, walking into the dread shadowlands. I was unaware of the game, I not even knew about the foruns and had little interest back then.
But was then that I got myself stuck with low supplies!!
It was terrifying, I had almost no food on myself! I had exactly ONE barley... ONE...
Back then, this gift trading did not existed. I had this one chance to not get to harvest in the land.
My stomach ache, and I stoped with the mouse pointer over the "perform" button for a second. I gave up, made some actions, and only a few moments later I got the guts to click.
I got one chance, but I did it... Still one of the most thrilling moments.
(all this becouse I care very much about not being tainted, of course)
And your best moment on EE? It was a close call like this? was when you got a nice place on a tourn?

When I looted my first Black Scroll in Shiro Chuda as a Scorpion Clan Samurai, oh so very long ago.

The first time I got Encircled Terrain at Toshi Ranbo and thought "Oh CRAP! This can kill me!"

For me it was the White Orchid as well. I knew I could blow away what everyone else had and so did Kiso. We agreed to wait several hours to give other players a chance to claim the prize before we took the 2 top spots. It was a very fun day waiting and talking to Kiso (who is a great guy). When we finally did click I won and took first spot. Of course Koichi just took it back from me a day later but hey that first day was really fun!

I have simple joys. Mine would be killing my first pekkle at court and keeping it's head as a souvenir.
Of course the Bloom of the White Orchid is close to my heart as well. The Master of the Void's surprised reaction of calling me a "random" Tamori taking the top spot was priceless, typical of the Phoenix and the Agasha, but still priceless.

"In defence of an Enemy" and "The Fall".
Those two are what hooked me to EE.

I'll echo Shodai-san: those occasions when something from my RP threads has been implemented as a job in-game.
Most notably: the duel to determine the fate of the trade route.

When I finally achieved Enlightement in Reihado Shinsei. This was tough for young character.
I hoped for Bloodspeaker Journals story to be equally interesting but I was disappointed it finishes only with Dragon Ally.

On the forum: Spotting that Soshi Kiso had quoted me in his sig. In the game: Getting third pace in the Topaz Championship and being one of the 15 who got the Topaz Champion position. It's still in my Iaijutsu outfit...

Not a best moment, bur sure a memorable one; My travel and "long stay" at Kyuden Bayushi, to watch the Kabuki play and a while after to investigate the assassination attempt and to discuss the moves of Scorpion's forces once they joined Hantei. That dark sinister place with shadowy red lanterns. Every turn make me feel like I'm gonig to see something that I will always regret seeing. Honor wounding corridors. They kept planting weird stuff like "lies" into my inventory and I knew I could be disgraced anytime just by being there With all those people trying to seduce and intimidate everyone around, scary court pratice. Happy moment when I went back to honorable Shinden Asahina in safety, and never had to step into Kyuden Bayushi again (until now). Well, that was just my imagination filling up the gaps of the clicking game actually But it was fun (quite scary, but fun). --- At the forums, I think White Orchid could had been a nice thread, but, in my opinion, it quickly focused in just a few chars. Would have been nice to have all the contestants do describe their presentation and really get to "trade" scrolls and knowledge, would have been fun, imo. I totally would go for a poll or a side contest based on spell description.
