Today marks the start of the new moHA weekly interview, designed to help UK citizens get to know others in their country. By this I don’t just mean those in government, cabinet or even the CP, I mean the regular citizens who you might not know much about. This series is your chance to have a voice.
To kickstart things I’d like to introduce Bradlad9 . He has been getting an increased involvement in e-Sim since he joined but I’ll let him tell you more about it (the smilies are all his, I didn’t add any )
Me - Hello Bradlad9 Brad - Hello there
Me - So to get the ball rolling, why did you join e-Sim? Brad - A friend used to play, and i was playing erep, so i decided to start again with him
Me - Ah ok cool, so are you enjoying the game so far? Brad - Yeah im loving it getting as involved as i can
Me - Thats good to hear, I noticed you took over The British Party , how have you looked to change it under your authority? Brad - Well when i joined, there were only 5 members, i was looking to completely change that and get as many members as possible and become as strong as we can We have also got two people into congress which nearly met my goal so hopefully next month we can improve again!
Me - Thats really good for a smaller party, how many seats are you aiming for next month? Brad - My aim for the party would be at least 5, hopefully 7 but we are still small and that would be a massive jump! I would work with everyone who is interested in signing up!
Me - It's good to hear a party president willing to take an active role like that. What has your time as a congress member for the UK taught you? and how can you use that to benefit others? Brad - Well from the start I have been active on the forums giving some good ideas and helping others Being in congress has really helped me mix with some of the other members and higher up members like yourself. It has been a superb feeling so far
Me - Haha cool, hopefully others will pick up on that enthusiasm! There has been a lot of recent changes in the world. First with the loss of Canada East Coast, which came as a shock to many, although it was a deal with the USA, and the following invasion of Ireland. How do you feel about these events and was it the right decision? Brad - My personal feeling is we did the right thing. It was a good idea giving Canada East Coast away, we gained a new ally which we have been working closely with, and also with people getting restless on the shoutbox it was a good chance for a British war! I think the situation in Shannon has really helped the UK weapons industry and we need to get the laws right about the weapons and that has got more people in weapons which is always good!
Me - And it really helped getting the nation talking! In the UK there has been an increase in the amount of MU’s recently, do you think this is a good thing? Brad - The UK only had two, and then castellane created one (great guy) I think since castellane has stopped it hasn’t been as good as it was, Occulte Mortis is an amazing MU, and I highly advise people to join up! They are growing quite quickly and that is good, the two newest MU's I am not completely aware of why that has happened because there are already MU's which are not full and could of been helped by the new creators!
Me - We also see you have created your own MU, what brought you to decide to do this? Brad - Well me and lionheart121 wanted to get as involved as we can, and we felt this was a great way to do it we are a close community and regularly use IRC to chat on new options for the MU! I also have a business mind and this has really helped because we use the MU to generate as much money as we can and do damage!
Me - Combining business and an MU can really bring great benefits. Do you think your MU will ever rival the British Army and Bonkers in terms of size and damage? Brad - Hopefully that is our long term plan. We know we are not close yet and our realistic rivals are the Royal Marines, but we are working together and growing quickly so hopefully we will be that strong! We are looking for new members weak and strong!
Me - And finally, Is there anything else you would like to say? Brad - Yeah please I would like to say a massive thanks to lionheart121 for introducing me, Solymer & Smack, for being such a good friend and helping me with my ideas. You, for also the help you have given me, and my whole MU, for giving me a chance and being wonderful people My main guys who are here from the beginning! Reeper666, Arsenal42, Annihilator999 and also dave32x, lkjoij, thank you
Me - Haha no problems, thanks for the interview Brad - Thank you, see you soon
So there you have it, a quick insight into the mind of a party and MU leader. He certainly has ambition, but will his party and MU really hit the heights he envisions? Only time will tell. Keep an eye out for next Thursday when we will be interviewing another UK citizen, it could even be you!
With thanks to Shedden for his contribution to the questions amongst other suggestions
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.
"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"
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.
