Now, enjoy the reading!
1. Greetings
Orlandio , 4x Estonian CP and famous redactor
1. Hello-Yello-Kellow-Pillow
Pentito , famous congress member and journalist of Italy
2. Until today, you were always used to listen to people answering your questions... How do you feel being on the other side of the interview?
2. I actually was quite sure you're gonna ask this question so I made an answer for it in front - "Well,
Pentito , I'm glad to be on the other side for once"!
3. LOL, I'll try to be more unpredictable from now on xD. Why did you decide to start a career as journalist?
3. Oh well, I was the CP of Estonia for a long time but you know, after months of doing something like that it can become quite boring... So I quit as the CP and since I was still bored, I started to get MM... And as it turned out, I like this so called journalism.
4. At the beginning were you inspired by any other journalist, or do you have a sort of "spiritual guide" ?
4. There was no real "legends" that I would've idolized... So I guess it was the 2nd choice, the guide-thing. I just like writing and I wanted to get MM, to eventually get the achievement for having all the medals... I'm kinda past that 1st MM medal point now, though.
5. All your success must be based on a secret, and now I want to know it
. How do you usually program the questions you will ask to the willing CP (or CP)?
5. You wanna know the secret? Okay, well firstly - someone writes me, suggesting me to interview theirselves or someone other... After that I just ping that guy in IRC and completely improvise all the questions (not always, but usually I don't make the questions up front or anything).
The interview usually just takes it's path, depending on the answers that people give me. But no, I don't sit around for hours trying to figure out the perfect questions, if you mean something like that.
6. This "technician" is rather curious, and it seems that yours is not a full-time job... how much time does it take to make up a new question?
6. That's be couple of minutes... They usually come to me real easy and fast, I think maximum amount of time for a question has been around 4-5 minutes
7. Ok, but this makes me think that you have some natural skills that maybe not all the people have: in your opinion can everyone succeed in making good interviews?
7. I'm pretty self-centered so I'd say - no, only I have got this gift!
But with all seriousness, not all has the talent but I think that many players could.
8. Talking about something else - Do you think that giving the opportunity to CPs to express themselves will help to avoid misunderstanding, and to promote communication between different countries? Or is "fun" your only purpose?
8. I don't quite understand, what you mean by "expressing"?... My opinion on CP and "fun", though, is that they don't belong together. CP "job" is for people who want to help their country without gaining but rather giving to the country. It is not for fun, it's very time-consuming and hard.
9. Sorry, there was a little misunderstanding... What I actually meant in my last question - but where it got a bit confusing - you make interviews in order to give the possibility to the CPs to express their own ideas or only for the fun of the readers?
9. I just decided that I like to do interviews. It's always a lot of reading so it doesn't get as much votes as some other articles (like the gifs from
plopilou for example, which btw are real great... you've got a talent for humour, French guy) but yes, it gives CPs a way to "express themselves". Basicly, what I want, is to have an overview on Global relations and politics. I want to have that overview myself but I also want everyone interested in this game to have it. And secondly, knowing the hard and frustrating work of being a CP, my interview series hopefully give all those selfless CPs a chance to tell their story and perhaps get some fame out of their hard work.
10. That's very important of course
. Now the last and the easiest question: do you want a pic of "the Beatles" at the end of the article?
10. Of course, that should be elementary.
The interview is over now, thank you and good luck with your activity in the future o/
Hey, that was my catchline... but okay, you can take it... bb

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.
