As you know I'm back and ready to spam you with articles again. That also means I'm restarding my interviews and waiting for your requests for them. My first new interview is with daenyboi and it's actually pretty interesting to find out HIS version of his e-sim life, because there's lots of rumors about him and his character. Have fun!
1. Hello, daenyboi , liberator of Sweden! 1. Hello, and nice to chat.
2. You self-proclaim yourself to be the president that managed to get Sweden rid of Lithuania's occupation after so many months. How did you do that? 2. Well i did it with the help from others and a lot of external factors of course (to be honest). To boost my ego i will tell you a cutdown version: We had CP election in June which i lost by 20 votes or so to Lord Rahl . Lord Rahl stated in his manifestation that he wanted a NAP to free Swedish regions and to give up after 7-8 months of fighting for them (never give up), which led Nenne , who was the previous CP, to form a riot with me with troops to fight for him and his followers in a Civil War. We tanked up and won and i was happy with the new congress elected. After that and when a referendum about "Yes" or "No" to NAP was voted down the work began. We formed alliance with countries that were "leftover" but it suited our purpose perfectly. With the help from Portugal, France and some from other Wic members we started to pound down on Lithuania. I also got contacted from Romania early on and that's when i started to think it all could be possible. Sweden's freedom and Romania's claim of hate towards Lithuania was the boost we needed. Some might say the right person (me) on the right time made Sweden the free liberated country it is today.
3. As the president of Sweden you declared war and conquered several regions from Estonia and your long-time ally Norway. What are the stories there? 3. First of, i didn't even want Norway in our alliance from the beginning. Sweden won't work without Vestlandet but we made a deal with them so it was just an agreement that they finally let us have Trondelag and Vestlandet. The first deal which was made between me and VikinGutt (CP of Norway at the time) was without Trondelag. For some reason they didn't let us have it debuffed and all.
The attack on Estonia was done after i made Finland and Poland talk about giving Finland % from their High region Oulu. I threatened Poland with a DoW from Sweden so they negotiated. Then i attacked Estonia "with the purpose" of freeing Finland and continuing on towards their High Grain and get regions close to Latvia so they wouldn't have border with Lithuania. I did this because Sweden needed to be the aggressor for once not only defend or play war in decided battles.
Initial thoughts were to let Estonia have their regions back also but last week of my CP period i noticed that the gold spent on attacks was more then the income we could make for a good period of time.
4. Many people have called Sweden's actions after liberation hypocritical, since in a lot of ways you seem to be doing the exact same things you used to blame Lithuania of, when it was the world power. What is your stand, as the current MoFA of Sweden, in this? 4. Well, owning Vestlandet is critical for our survival and Norway acknowledge this and get a good % from region so ppl shouldnt be so mad about that. Vestlandet is as crucial for us as Latgalia is for Lithuania (all citizens money are invested in companies there). For Estonia we´ve havent had prios for a long time, though 2-clickers and bh-hunters might fight. I can only suggest Estonia to fight hard to take it back.
I can add - they shouldn't be that critical about our attack on Estonia. Firstly Estonia attacked Finland when they were on their knees. We pushed Estonia back with first purpose to free Finland, then Finland started RW at the same time as my plans were formed in my head. My other motive was to be to play attacker for once.
5. You were also one of the founding members of the alliance WIC. What did you do there? Sweden also a part of this alliance? 5. After the CW was won and the referendum i made was shutdown as i wanted it to, the talks began to finally form a new alliance for Sweden after the fall of Phoenix. Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Netherlands, Ireland, France were on initial talks. My MoFA Nenne threw both Ireland and Netherlands out. At later stage Norway was added and 5 countries formed the alliance. I just helped by having long meetings. Also hedinho and rkiIler9999 helped a lot in these meetings. When it was done i passed the job over to other people, and after that i was kinda exhausted as CP and of politicics overall. (had to be on irc and type and chat daily for hour after hour).
6. What does the nation of Sweden think of you in general? Because you've been said to be quite a controversial figure. 6. My bet is either they like me or they dont, as i'm kinda new in this game and have only played actively since December. I also think some older players have some issues with me and were pretty sceptic when i became president. I would say 50% were against it in the beginning, but my only words to those sceptics now are: I freed Sweden not you. I gathered a bunch of countries without alliance not you. Special thanks in process were to all that helping rebels in CW and those who stood by me during this time and made it possible. This was not an act to get power it was an act to get Sweden where it is today.
7. People that know you seem to think that the biggest part of you is your ego... Any comment? 7. Sometimes you have to put up a nice front that shows you won't back down too easily. In general im not that big of an ego in my own opinion. I just make some bad choices in terms of how i express myself sometimes.
8. Thanks for this interview and I look forward to the Swedish comments! 8. Thank you, now time for some left4dead2
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.
