Interview with (former) Czech president.

Day 618, 16:09 Published in Germany United Kingdom by Elisa Vorimberg

The German ambassador to Czech, tmv23, asked me to post this for him since he doesn't have his own newspaper (I highly recommend he gets one!).

An interview with radim, impeached president of the Czech Republic.

Question: First before we start with the political affairs of the last week, i'd like to ask a personal question: since how long you play eRep and how did you get to know this game?

Answer: "I play eRepublik from 15th September 2008 (Day 300). I remember this game in beta. I read great article from user called Baci. This game is like drug and I love this game from the first moment."

Question: In the last congress election the RL-Czech people lost the majority - just like the RL-Germans. How could that happen?

Answer: "Because we were takenovered by Poles. It weren´t official takeover by Polish goverment, but takeover by guy called Uner and his group. They made multiaccounts and buyed few votes in Poland. Admins weren´t able ban these multiaccounts."

Question: A few days ago you were impeached by the new congress. Are you diappointed?

Answer: "I wasn´t impeached because I was bad president, I was impeached because our congress was takenovered, takeovers have constitutional majority. So I´m little bit disgusted. To be a honest I´m not dependent on this seat, but I liked it."

Question: The new citizenship-module was announced a few days before the election. Was this a mistake by the admins? What do you expect the admins to do now?

Answer: "A little bit. If you look around the world, you see that at the last congress elections before citizenship were problems with takeover in more countries
(Czech Republic, Germany, Canada, France). But in eRepublik are everytime some elections. Bigger problem is admin´s inactivity, our takeovers used many multiaccounts
and admins banned them after my impeachment, but I wrote yet before elections. The biggest problem is because citizenship, we can´t invite any foreign help."

Question: Because of the citizenship now many RL-Poles have Czech citizenship. Do you think Czech will ever be ruled by RL-Czechs again?

Answer: "I´m sure that they doesn´t want be forever there. One day they will leave us."


A big thanks to radim for answering the questions.
