Good morning fellow people, or bots, or whatever you like to call yourself at these times.
It is time for my second post in this madness of a newpaper, this chaotic piece of non-art.
Welcome back to Confessions of a Newbie
Today I'm going to write about the misstakes I feel I've done so far, and I'm also going to adress you readers for some things I'd love you to do for both me and other newbs like me.
Firstly, some quick thoughts that came to mind when I slept last night (yes, slept, I acctually dreamt of this game. It wasn't pretty).
Politics. It seems there have been elections for whatever, and suddenly we have a president. I find it rather funny how the leadership is based on the number of recruits the person did. I guess it will change in upcomming elections, since I atleast like to have the illusion I've got something to say in the matter. Here's one of the things I'm asking the readers about.
Is there anyone here with a deep understanding of the politics in this game, that could set out on the though mission of civilizing (just like that guy in the Newsroom, and write me an extensive article or teach me everything about it, so that I can write one to explain both to me, and to others, how it acctually works. Preferably someone who has been in the congress and knows not only the theoretical parts, but the deceptive and manipulative bits aswell.
Contact me through mail if you're willing.
Secondly, Travel, once more. I'm stuck in the US. didn't realise you couldn't buy things from other markets unless you were in that country, so now I'm stuck in the US without currency, tickets, or product. Hence I send you this warning:
Do NOT run wild in the world without a gun
It will only slow you down.
Bad pun, sry
Back to funny stuff, because II'm trying real hard but failing real hard at being humoristic. Though it's now the entire point with the newspaper. I like to enlighten people, learn, teach, discover and forget. So please contact me if you can help me in any way or form.
Next time I'm going to try to discuss the market a bit, the confusion and tricks of it. If someone is friendly enough to teach me a few things. And ofc the in-depth politics if it is possible by then. If not, that will be later.
Sincerely.
Masho.
Also, subscribe if you like this, and vote it up if want to.
Wouldn't mind spreading it a bit and getting not just my view of this game into these articles.
Any questions can be either asked in the comment section or sent by mail.
I'll see you in the next fight, probably shooting at you!

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.
