<zeppe> how does an argentinean commit suicide?
he climbs to the top of his ego and jumps off
This insight into the way of life(or at least ending it) into his country was provided in the main e-sim IRC channel by
Sheimi amidst the frustration that players felt following the recent server problems. People are inclined to believe that E-Sim was gone for a day or so while, in fact, its life for some of its more dedicated players continued within the IRC domain. In this article, I will attempt to go over some of peoples’ IRC quotes (in a more refined manner in italics) amidst what’s happening in-game.
In #strade before the crash, its business as usual with some people offering their goods:
While others are looking to purchase whatever they need:
But then everything comes to abrupt end and traders start to panic:
<+LTPanda> Finaly free evening. Hey, you! Go call your girlfriend, take her for dinner! e-Sim is out today. Come back tomorrow! Cheers!
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

E-Sim is down for hours! No one can get hold of Railman in #e-sim so players are starting to wonder if he is doing anything about the servers and, if yes, at what speed?:
<janniemoney> but changin servers in a single day
<janniemoney> thats pretty impresive
<OwenHargreaves> not rly
<janniemoney> ow -_-
<janniemoney> so you could do it better??
<OwenHargreaves> changing servers can be a lot faster than 1 day for one
<OwenHargreaves> and secondly, its not even done yet
<janniemoney> by 1 man>
<OwenHargreaves> him being a man is debatable

<Costinha4> E-SIM IN THE HOUSE
<blowfly> buying all double price
<Black_adder> selling all for 0,0001g
<nico_agusto> lol
<andrefma> E-SIM DON'T WORK :o:o:o selling e-sim pm me
<fotis> selling server
<rado> why the game is dead ?
<loody-chincho> because it died
<+michal3922> buying esim
But trade must go on:
<+lokiju> Ok, i'm buying
Despite the despair:
<Diana> It's dead, isn't it?
…:
<+sectorclear> sTrade..........is so calm...........shhhhhhhh
With nothing to sell, players have to start selling one another:
<+BrucePD> Selling AcertijO's soul PM
Others cannot overcome the idea that not everything in e-life can be bought with money:
<Pentito> buying lost day of work and train :|
While others are just being pragmatic:
<Greven1> selling nothing.. there are no server to sell from
...or would rather have some fun themselves:
<Norsk> Selling everything, only PM ingame
But lets not kid ourselves! Its good to be back in-game and we should be patient with Railman to have the time to put everything back to normal. Either way, just enjoy the conclusion underneath that every E-Sim article should have!

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.
