兩年前離開eREP之後，來到e-sim，還有一些老朋友記得我，老實說我很開心。
而我同樣記得兩年前，陪伴我走過一年不長不短的日子那些夥伴。
剛加入的時候，迎接我的，是TTE的助手前輩，
那時候對我而言，還是plarq掛有耀眼光環的時代，
能加入TTE黨老實說真的很開心，而且開心死了。
然後跟著助手前輩、RURU前輩弄黨務，搞電台，
每個月都會來這麼一次，其實很充實。
後來zz就把我抓進KOKA了，老實說我也不知道我到底哪一點被看上，
不過，經歷過plarq執政的那一段時期，KOKA軍團在我的心目中早就被神化了，
戰場指揮、命令發布、外交協商、政令宣導....
KOKA成員全都是建國以來的老人，除了嚮往，對新人的我而言還有一層神秘感，
所以懵懵懂懂的我就這麼加入了。
加入之後，才發現其實他們很可愛，很值得尊敬，
會糾團打LOL、follow最新的動漫跟同人遊戲，
在政治軍事上有著積年累月下來的經驗與氣勢，
那KOKA囂張跋扈的頭像就貼著「ＫＯＫＡ出沒注意！！」
彷彿就像在訴說「我們可不是好惹的，想打eROC？你會吃不完兜著走。」
這些名字就這麼在我的生活中打轉著...
ZZ、拍拍、莉莉、毛毛、愛寶、sada、DD魚、77、Bili Bili、大河(笨笨)...
後來我發現，這票KOKA的名字基本上都是疊字，
有時候我還會覺得是不是只有我叫艾莉卡感覺太多餘了？
不過鑒於女Ｏ卡卡早就出道，我就不勉強自己弄個疊字了。
輾轉半年，國家逐漸強盛，而我創辦了報紙【YIMG報】，說說八卦，講講時事，
然後提供給不願意多花2G創辦報紙卻想說話的人一個發聲平台。
KOKA的老人們也漸漸從前線脫離，一個一個歸隱了。
即使如此，他們仍然在暗地裡為這個國家盡一份心力，
也許，有些手段不見得會讓我覺得對，也許，有些事情他們備受批評，
但是他們在我心目中，還是一群可愛又令人嚮往的堅實團隊，
那個接納我這個甚麼也不懂，卻還是把我當成KOKA其中一員的一群人。
在我加入eREP的下半年，在接了一連串的選舉感謝派包文之後，
腦袋一個突發奇想，【YIMG報】就轉型成了派包報。
找了兩個工作夥伴，發薪讓他們做事，
就算我的工廠賺不到太多錢，也因為要囤積派包而蓋了太多的倉庫，
導致我的經濟發展比別人慢上許多，但...我終於做了一點像樣的事情了。
可是，接連下來的政治惡鬥蠶食鯨吞著KOKA們對國家的熱情，
有些人選擇離開，有些人選擇繼續留下，頑強的與時事輿論奮鬥著。
而我也在發了半年派包報之後，心灰意冷。
我老覺得我發這些包，是在養肥對我們有敵意的人，
但還是得把這種想法從腦海掃除，因為我發包是給有需要的人，
而那些人也是eROC的一份子，是國家的助力。
但身為KOKA，我沒有辦法忍受我的前輩們被莫須有的罪名指責，
而我卻無能為力。
我憤恨那些為了政治成就將別人的踐踏餘地的人，
我更憤恨我自己沒有辦法阻止這件事。
所以加入一年之後，我選擇退役。
離開eREP這塊傷心地，延續我的現實生活。
接受了兩年軍事教育準備要下部隊的我，一個腦筋不對，又回來了。
兩年，那些鬥爭的人們都消失了，
只留下殘缺不齊的記憶。
上了IRC，跟一些老人打打照面，思考了一個晚上。
我決定創辦報紙【夜想曲】，
寫下那一年，我在eROC的全部。
他不會符合史實，他不會因為別人而修正，因為他是專屬於我的歷史，我親眼見證的歷史。
如果你們願意聽一個老不老，也不年少的我說說我的故事，
那就來點V+S吧w
我是艾莉卡，艾莉卡．哈特曼，請多多指教。

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.
