Tänkte med denna, min första, artikel dela lite tankar om IRC.
Dem flesta av er har säkert ingen aning om vem jag är och bryr er säkert inte heller om vad jag tycker.
Oavsett så kommer denna artikel att gå i positiv riktning. Efter denna helg, då Sverige haft krig på flera fronter, vill jag starkt framhålla vikten av IRC. Innan helgen tillhörde jag själv dem som inte tyckte det var så viktigt. Organiseringen av striderna på IRC visade iallafall för mig hur viktigt det faktiskt är. Framför allt blir spelupplevelsen sååå mycket bättre. Och man träffar många roliga kufar. Var inte rädda för att ställa dumma frågor, jag har personligen aldrig blivit hånad för att ha, som jag tyckt, ställt dumma frågor. Och jag kommer att fortsätta ställa dumma frågor. 
Till de nya som kanske tycker att dem inte utdelar så mycket skada så det gör ingen skillnad. Det gör det visst.
Många bäckar små blir en hel flodEtt slitet uttryck men många är de strider som avgjorts med små marginaler.
Första steget mot att bli en stor krigare, gå med i en military unit. Att tillhöra en grupp känns alltid bra och man känner sig genast starkare. Som ny spelare tycker man att det kanske inte händer så mycket. Man jobbar och tränar varje dag och i stort sett inte mer. Men håll ut beroendet kommer.
Finns faktiskt spelare som blivit tvungna att helt sluta spelet p.g.a. att beroendet gått ut över det riktiga livet. Hexagon och jag har flera gånger pratat om den egendomliga kraft spelet kan ha.
Svårt att förstå på ett så ändock relativt simpelt spel.
Nåväl, avslutar med att ge massor av beröm till alla som deltagit i helgens strider. Min spelarglöd har iallafall fått sig en rejäl boost och ni kommer absolut att se och höra mer av mig på IRC. I mån av tid givetvis.
Riktar en extra stor eloge till alla de som sköter organiseringen av strider, politik, supplies och allt annat för se till att e-sim Sverige faktiskt är så bra som det är. Linnew10, Hexagon, Wilworin och trimmarn, bara för att nämna några, vet inte alla namnen så alla som känner sig träffade ska verkligen ta åt sig.
Hälsningar
Från en sliten Swedish Viking

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
