[PN] Interview with... Neil Lewis

Day 2,747, 14:19 • Published in United Kingdom

Hi everyone.

For my next interview I have chosen my MU's current commander and a man who obviously loves gingers, Neil Lewis.

1. Tell us a few words about your real life self.

- I'm in my mid-40s and currently "looking for work". I've worked for 3 supermarket chains (at various levels), worked in banking (retail, not merchant) and taught IT (i.e. how to use a computer properly). Outside eRepublik, my hobbies are reading (sci-fi/fantasy/horror), watching TV/Films (mainly comedy, sci-fi & documentaries), WoW, SWTOR & supporting Crystal Palace FC.

2. About eRepublik Neil Lewis.

- eBorn in Feb 2012, invited by Woldy from another game. First MU was TUP Family. Joined Royal Navy May 2012 (been Commander 5 times, 2-i-C numerous times, lost count how many times i was Regt Captain). I'm author of "Thank Ginger it's the Weekend" & the eUK Election Service.

3. How do you see your future in eRepublik? (Any CP ambitions?)

- Carry on as I am, may run a 4th CP campaign.

4. eUK's future? (Any suggestions to the current and future governments?)

- I'm sure we'll carry-on as we are (with occasional wipes). I'd like us to wipe France (again?) just for the lolz.

5. eRepublik's future? (Is there light at the end of the tunnel?)

- The way the admins are going, the player population will decline. The dictator module wasn't thought through properly. They need to cherry-pick ideas from other games (and vice-versa) to improve the game (MU owned companies is one) and penalise CPs who steal the treasury.

6. Who is your favourite person in eRepublik and why?

- Hmm .. too many to mention & I'll only inflate egos by naming names. But mick cain is head & shoulders above all.

7. Any person you dislike and why?

- I'll just call them the 3 stooges & leave it at that.

8. A few words about your military unit, The Royal Navy.

- By far the best MU in the eUK. Now beating RADC in the damage charts as well as kills (that might be due to a lot of RADC coming to us).Best organised, and probably the most helpful.

9. A few words about your political history and current party.

- Member of UKPP (PP 3 times, MP numerous times). Moved to UKRP (PP 2 times, MP twice). Now in WBUKP (PP twice, MP once). Lost CP race 3 times so far. Been MoEd, MoEnt, MoHA, aMoD.

10. Do you lift?

- No.
