Fourth step:
If you hadn't realize it, the most important aspect in this game is not answering weird trivia. If what you did everyday is only that, I am pretty sure you won't played this game more than 1 week. Exception might be exist though. Anyway, the most interesting aspect in this game are communicating with other people, flaming or ignoring people that you didn't like, messing other people eLife, etc. So...

1. Register on the e Japan forums and check it daily.
LINK
In this eJapan private forum you will be able to pick up other tips, asking question, make new friends (and enemies *cough😉, bug other people, seeing the progress of (Non Existent) Japan Army, find active eJapan citizen, voicing your opinion about current eJapan government, have chance to get some donation if you are lucky, and etc.

2. Checking eJapan (Or eWorld) media.
In your Home section, you should be able to find 5 top eJapan article, 5 eJapan latest article, and 5 eWorld top article. If you want to see more article, you can click more news. Please remember that only article that was published less than 48 hours that able to appear in those top 5 list. So don't be shocked (or worse proud) to find stupid or useless or nonsense article or shameless advertisement sometimes appear in those top list. To reduce that kind of article appear in top 5 list, make sure you didn't vote any useless article even if the one publishing it was your friends or boss or party leader or president and vote only article that you think worth to be read. Btw, don't be afraid to leave comments to the article because people usually like to get response from their readers.

3. Subscribe to newspaper that you think worth to be read daily.
Actually there are newspaper that publish their article in different country, so if you really wanted to not lost chance to read their article make sure you subscribed their newspaper and check your Subscribe list daily.


I'll end this "wall of text" for now.
I might or might not publishing the next part tomorrow.
So if you still have any question please join the forum and bug someone else there.
Just post your question in eJapan forum and ignore the fact that sometimes no people are there.
A few hours later somebody will give respond to you.
