The results of the eRepublik survey

Day 475, 09:22 • Published in • by Plato

Dear citizens,

The results of the eRepublik survey have been compiled and analyzed by our team. We were very pleased to receive your responses to our questions, and get a better idea of what you think about eRepublik. We would also like to thank you for the feedback you have provided.

The survey has gathered over 16 000 responses, and we have also received thousands of suggestions through the comment box at the end of the questionnaire. Many citizens used this comment box to congratulate or criticize the eRepublik team. We were glad to see positive responses, and we were also grateful for all the constructive criticism that was received. Finding out the weaker areas of eRepublik was one of the main objectives of this survey.

We have learned that most of the eRepublik users are between the ages of 19 and 24, and that social interaction is the most important activity in eRepublik. Many citizens believe that countries should have different government types, and that rich graphical content is important for the New World. Owning a company and fighting in wars seem to be the most important features in eRepublik. Citizen responses have also shown that the military module should be improved the most. Additionally, many citizens suggested that we improve the country administration module, as well as create a wider range of products for the market place.

Other popular suggestions included the implementation of an animated world map, of more languages and more countries. Citizens are also interested in the possibility of getting married, having cars or even pets. Some went as far as suggesting that the exploration of outer space should be possible. The trivia module has caused mixed reactions, as many citizens declared to miss it, and others asked that it never be restored.

We have also received some funny suggestions. For instance, the recognition of Dio Brando as the supreme ruler of the New World, or a “Dishmcds Ruler Day”. Many citizens wanted to receive Gold, but someone was more inspired and asked for a money tree in his back yard. A citizen suggested that Plato should return in the New World, while others asked for features that would make more women interested in eRepublik.

Citizens who participated in this forum contest had to guess the number of male respondents to the eRepublik survey. 15 041 male citizens took the survey, and Zsim won by answering 15 044. You can see the complete results of the survey here. Thank you again for answering this survey.



Special Note:
Today, a problem has occurred in the work module due to the Daylight Saving time change. Fortunately, this issue has been solved in a timely fashion, and things have returned to normal. The citizens who have worked during the early hours of this day have noticed that the counter for the hard worker medal had been reset. With their help, our staff has taken the proper measures to correct this problem and reverse all its effects. The number of consecutive work days is now displayed correctly, and the hard worker medals were awarded to all the citizens who should have received them today.

The eRepublik team would like to use this opportunity to express its regret for the appearance of these problems, and apologize for any inconvenience created. Also, we would like to thank all the citizens who have noticed these issues and helped our team by reporting them.

Regards,
The eRepublik Team
