A few days back I established a new stock company.
"But Nova, why? There are already countless SCs out there!"
I know and there are some very good ones at that! I already invested in a few. This game is getting boring without new challenges. Not doing much else than hunting BH medals every other day is fun for a while but you will eventually want to do something else.
This is also why a lot of citizens try to find something new - Some go into politics, some try to set up their own MU, some try to become a business tycoon. And that is how I ended up creating the SC.
So, what are my plans?
For starters, I would like to have each Q5 company to take up 100 shares of the SC. This makes calculations easier and ensures a high share value.
I'd like to start out with 6 Q5 companies, which means we'll end up with 600 shares. The first few shares shall be sold for 5 Gold. Every share that is issued above 600 will be sold for more. I am not sure of the details about the pricing yet. That said, I guarantee to buy shares back to at least the estimated share price, as long as I have the money to afford it. I will also help in keeping the price high by buying shares myself, if the money allows it.
As for dividends: We'll have to see how much profit each company makes and then decide about how much of it stays in the SC. I will most likely make some public spreadsheets (soonish) so you'll be able to follow our progress. There will be polls in which shareholders will be able to decide about it in which I, as CEO, won't participate voting in.
Well, this is about it for now.
I just wanted to give you a rough outline about my plans and why I created the SC. Thank you for reading and sorry about the lack of pictures!
Once there are more shareholders I will write a follow-up with more information.

Es tut mir Leid das dieser Artikel in Englisch ist obwohl er in Deutschland veröffentlicht wurde. Das Schreiben in Englisch fällt mir einfach viel leichter und gleichzeitig können internationale Leser auch etwas verstehen. Auch wenn ich bezweifle dass dieser Artikel viele Leser außerhalb Deutschlands bekommen wird. ^^;
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.
