一年/One year in this game(+有包/free food)

To my English readers: This is just sort of my reflections after close to one year in this game. There will be sections in English(You can skip the beginning). Read whatever you want or just leave your COMMENTS(ie hopefully not just vote number or sub number) for free food XD

好吧,其实一年没到,还有20天,不过估计我下几周比较忙,先发了
从我的好友列表开始吧


恩,没错,我是传说中的新宋党,上线是可爱的愚昧酱,不过貌似只给了我三个q1小面包(虽然在v1还算值钱)。v1的日子很简单,双击,打仗,偶尔看看报纸,例如dSokre和7赖的。我不是很清楚为什么我会那么早就加了后来成为美国总统的Haliman同学,不过看来人家当选不是偶然的

Let's start from the beginning. V1 days is quite simple, work, train, fight. Occasionally read some newspaper, for example from dSokre. I have no clue why I added Haliman (who eventually become US CP)so early on. But I guess that's partly why he did win an election (good at socializing). Same thing for v2, except I spent 12 hrs a day in library. Occasionally I go on battlefield and pick people to berserk, mildly fun. Bought gold a few times(Still remember, first time is to buy a q5 house for 24 gold in v1)

之后就很好说了,由于学业和不用qq的关系,我基本就一个人双击了6个月。冲过几次值,还记得第一次完全是为了买v1的q5房子。v2变化巨大,但对双击党实在有限。每天12小时图书馆,偶尔上上战场,无双一下。国际消息大约知道一些,例如紫娘娘,NK PTO,教授当总统等等。报纸也看,不过依稀只记得那时候赛罗莎,大雄,傻卡经常对喷。辽宁几次激战都有留意,不过说实话,从来都不是很在意,因为时差只参加了v2那次.当时的偶像是长期外长Xenon大人

好友第三页

其实没什么特殊的,不过几个名字还有些印象。积累N个月并改回v1.5后,我在印度某起义是抢到的了第一枚BH,Mecak同志就是抢章是认识的,tina和Flakerjj貌似也是差不多那时候军帐群认识的,好像也是差不多那时候抢到章的。其实还有前巴基斯坦总统Kualkerr同学,记得当时抢章的时候经常让我们新人(当然,前提条件是打赢)

第四页

这一页的意义在于,上面的大多数是我的好员工。我的第一家厂是在罗马尼亚开的,所以有不少优秀的罗马尼亚工人,而我对工人也一直很好,基本上有什么要求必应。刚开始我还是很勤快的,比如天天手动做google doc算利润,或者辛辛苦苦的走私麦子(恩,我很久才知道wangweiautodonater).虽然辛苦,赚的钱也不多,但是乐在其中。后来走私坦克也一样,不过那个利润更大,每个能赚0.05g,每天5g问题不大

This marks the beginning of my company owner career. I opened my first two companies in Romania. I am lucky to have many good workers, some of them still working for me today. Back in the days, I used to manually update google doc to calculate how many people i should hire, how much wage i should offer. Or I would spend hrs clicking just to smuggle a bunch of grains thru org(I actually did not know scripts existed). Quite a bit of work for very little money, but that sure was fun, and also made me realize I am never a business material, here or RL XD. Later I start trading tanks on #itrade, back in the days I easily make 0.05 per tank just by buying and selling, comes out to be 5g pure profit everyday

跳到第8页

这一页上有不少外国人,例如西班牙外长qablo,匈牙利外长Nalaja.出于对Blodance政府外交工作的不满(为何不满我下面会具体说),我主动加入了外交部(多谢KK给我机会)。第一个任命是西班牙/波兰/匈牙利大使。月内亲眼看到了波兰离开eden,和西班牙一步一步地跳反.月底末还和RL SK的人谈判过,不过最终因他们下台而不了了之.

也许不少民众以为西班牙向来是敌国,其实不是,就是西班牙在和罗马尼亚闹翻的时候,西班牙罗马尼亚也仅仅是被一票之差否决,我一直想知道,如果有一位议员改变主意的话,世界会怎样。

This is the beginning of my diplomat career, which is why you see qablo and Nalaja. I joined MoFA partly due to dissatisfaction of previous' month's policy. My first assignment was as an ambassador to Spain Poland and Hungry, back when those two were still in EDEN(Yes Athompson, I was right, the 3 countries I was assigned to did end up in the same alliance, as I predicted in the beginning of the month). During the month, I witnessed Poland leaving EDEN and how Spain comes closer and closer to leaving EDEN.

While I believe somethings can not be helped, but I really wonder what history what be like if just one person, changes his mind. In the case of spain, they rejected Romania MPP by 1 vote. I often wondered how the world be like had one congressman, just one voted differently

我的下一个任务,是驻美国大使。由于RL在美国,对他们的语言文化都非常熟悉,所以对我来说很轻松。经常去他们的irc频道刺探消息。直到今日我还经常上他们的论坛,看看各种消息。这样一直到了Yoman政府,忘了具体背景,反正看着人手不够,就主动问Yoman要来了次长的名分并打入内阁。后来Takt大人辞职,我就直接篡权自封外长,一直做到现在

一个月来,各种各样的事情都见了一些(我非常不幸的和亚洲所有国家都打过交道,不是简单的打招呼).有时候很无聊(比如来找你要国籍的,或者议员把你当作移民官),有时候很无奈(我至今不赞成打日本的决定),有时候压力很大(比如后来两次和日本谈判,国内外压力都有),但有时候也很爽(例如现在,拿着国际地图当棋盘下的感觉,的确很好).如果不是工作要开始忙了,我还真有打算试试看打破Xenon前辈任期的想法

My next job was ambassador to US, which is quite easy since I live in US in RL. To this day I still spy around various US channels and usaforum. Eventually I became the MoFA thru some random series of events. Probably not a good thing, but in the one month plus I've been working as MoFA,I've worked with every nation(Phillipine,Indo,SK,NK,Japan,India,Pakistan,Iran,Russia) in East Asia(ie, swapping, war, not just say hi) and even in Europe. It's definitely a complex experience.Sometimes irritating(stop asking me for citizenship!), sometimes painful(two negotiation with Japan, both internal and external pressure), but sometimes damn awesome(ie now, when you look at the world map as if you are playing chess)

最后,数据上看自己的成长历程


恩,没错,虽然买了起义章,虽然坑蒙拐骗的拿到了SB章,暂时还没有MM和总统
迟早有一天我会补上的,不过不是现在
Yes, don't have MM and CP medal, they will be fixed eventually

最后,一些零碎的想法
Some random thoughts:

关于外交
做好外交部长不容易,首先需要收集情报(大使或者自己做间谍),其次需要一定的战略眼光,要清楚地知道我们有多少实力,什么可以做而什么不可以做。经常需要在线时间来应对突发事件,谈判技巧也很重要。

说到谈判技巧,我个人认为,外交是实力的体现。国家有多少实力(人口数量,质量,盟友,组织,体制等等),将会决定谈判时有多少筹码。没错,谈判的时候可以用些手段,尤其是对敌人甚至可以欺骗,但一切到底以实力为本。没实力耍手段,只会让自己死得更惨,而即使有实力,也最好尽量少玩把戏,因为国家的信誉和记录是长期的(比如UK至今尚未洗去叛徒的标签)。再多的周旋,再多的手段,终究有摊牌的一天。另外,做出决定前须要清楚地知道自己的目标,并评估这件事情的利益。现实里很多事情,不是我们可以,我们喜欢,就应该去做的,那些事情也许短期内很爽,长期却有害无利

About MoFA
At the end of the day power(size of population,allies,organization and institution etc) of that nation determines how much chips they have at the negotiating tables. Sure, you can play games, you can trick people, but one must know what can they get away with and what cant. Even for those situations that they can, it is my opinion that those should be minimized, unless you have a clear strategic goal to go for. Just like real life, there are things that you can, and you want, but that does not mean you should

关于游戏
游戏改了很多,不喜欢的人也有很多。其实我对无头鸡一直比较宽容,一直觉得v2不差,v1.5初期压秒也有很多可操作性,就是现在的比分制,也不是一无是处。然而,有一个改动我是坚决反对,那就是NE,自动攻击和免费开展导致全世界烽烟四起。当初辽宁之所以举世瞩目,是因为全世界所有国家都为了这一战准备很久。第一次SGP会战很激动人心,第50次就没人关心了

About state of the game
Game changed a lot, for better or for worse. I am generally receptive to most of the changes, I can see certain values to v2 as well as v1.5. There is only one change I hate wholeheartedly, that is NE. Free war and auto attack lead to battles everywhere everyday. What made LK and HK so epic, was the maneuvering by the entire world, the buildup for days even weeks before the battle. As I have experienced myself, first battle of Southern Great Plain was epic, the 50th one? who cares

给新玩家一些建议
1.恩,不要等着机会来,自己争取去,我出身第六大政党,自己要来了大使的位置,自己要来了次长,外长也是我自封的。要什么,就自己去争取把,不要等着别人施舍
2.这只是个游戏,心态要对,你是为了享受这游戏才来玩的。做外长之前我一直是以看戏的心态来看军国大事,对我来说这游戏的历史比某些连续剧还跌宕起伏,比看电视剧更有意思(剧情闭着眼睛都猜得到)

Comments to new players:

1. Do whatever you want, that's the beauty of this game. In RL you might be bound to many things but not here. Don't wait for opportunities to come, go get it yourself. I started in the 6th party, I asked for my Ambassador job, asked for vMoFA, and took over MoFA on my own. You can go as far as you want in this game, if you just want it
2. It's a game, play it as one. Try to enjoy it, whichever way you prefer. I used to view the events in this game as unscripted drama. To me that can be more entertaining than real drama series on TV, minus visual effects.

恩,先说到这里了,留下v/s和留言会有包/礼品(包的分量视留言的质量)哦
