Interview with eRepublik Co-Founder

44 Day 608, 16:36 USA
Back in mid-June, we sat down with George Lemnaru, co-founder and CTO of eRepublik.com. Over a 3 hour period we asked him questions that hundreds of community members had been itching to have answered. We'd like to thank him for taking the time out of his busy schedule to do this and hope our readers enjoy the interview as much as we did!

"These improvements are coming for sure after citizen ads, citizenship, newsletter and world map."
Excellent interview, although I can't help but feel as though adding a wellness monitor to a company's Employees tab (and adding a Wellness requirement to even accept a certain job listing, I'm tired of people joining my company with 3 Wellness) is far more important than a newsletter or citizen ads.

George said, "However, this leaves out the citizens that don't log in so regularly or that are active only during elections or during wars."

Wouldn't these citizens be prime multi suspects.

You said, "I was really happy to see that people do consider eRepublik--and especially the war module--as just a game and that in real life we are friends."

But so many DON'T see it as just a game.

George sai, "The most important thing that we lack right now are improvements in the military, politics and economic modules."

Excellent. I've missed the original war module since it was cut. And, all of those who complained about it to the point where admin had to let it go should, in the words of George Costanza, "Apologize and be fired."

With that said... excellent article. Probably the most important interview anyone has ever conducted on eRepublik. Congratulations Big Brother. Voted.

"There are plenty, but I don't know if I should make them public...but what the hell. One interesting case was when somebody bought a domain-name with my name in it and created a g*y p*rn website just for me as revenge for an in-game action that we did. So I found the guy's name and phone number, and called him to thank him for the effort. It was quite nice because I contacted him asking stuff about his professional experience and talking about this cool start up that I have and I would like to collaborate with him because the guy was very good in his professional life. Then I told him that I'm George from eRepublik. He put down the website and we are now friends (in a normal kind of way)."

Aww yeah. I know right. Friends. In a normal kind of way. Uh-huh.

Good interview, though the answers were as ambiguous as ever.

Some amount of honesty was shown, but it still lacked the most important part - the actual plans for the near future. I am guessing it doesn't exist at all, and the whole project is steered like a Lada on a road covered with burning vodka.

Does George Lemnaru really speak in Asterisks?

Besides, Big Brother, you didn't ask the question we really wanted to know: Who would win at arm wrestling, George Lemnaru or Alexis Bonte?

A good question would be how do they assign names for regions? A lot of them, particularly in South America seem quite arbitrary...
