Getting back to the normal life of Erepublik

Day 22, 00:00 • Published in USA

• by Plato

Great news today: we've been selected to be in the top 5 finalists of Le Web 3 Ã¢â‚¬â€œ Start Up contest. We've made also an announcement on the blog here:
http://www.erepublik.com/blog/?p=20

Meanwhile, Erepublik life it's getting back to it's normal course. We started today to send invitations to part of the people that are waiting to enter Erepublik. Also we are thinking on giving more invitations to the Citizens that consumed their invitations.

This week we will implement a new industry. It's a surprise.

Here are the things we also resolved in the meantime:
- new article update link was broken on friends updates and email notifications;
- on the "Report a bug" page Plato was appearing twice, we considered that he is not so good looking to deserve this, so we fixed the bug;
- small security improvements and a few Citizens banned for racist comments;
- accessing an article page or a party page that doesn't exist, you are now redirected to the homepage;
- new articles and new profiles pictures bug fixed (pictures were mixed up between new articles or new profiles);
- when Citizens logout there was a problem with the redirection and sometime they remained stuck in a constant refreshing page;
- special characters were looking horrible, now French and Spanish articles are looking better;
- when accessing some pages your default currency was changing;
- resending invitations to some Citizens that were registered during the rollback and apologizing for the problems created.

As we've stated also in other places: rollbacks will be from now on the last, extreme option that we will take. We hate them as much as you do. So let's continue building Erepublik together.

Any chance that those who are not personally invited by user, but receive an automated invite from their request from the site can be automatically assigned a location among the lesser populated countries? It sure would help us smaller countries compete with the BIG FIVE, which at this point almost seems hopeless.

NOTE: I am not suggesting that the Pakis, Spainiards, Swedes, or Americans have a population limit set against them. Let their friends that they have invited choose where they want to live, but if someone is invited by the system instead of a person (as I was) could we randomly assign them a location among the lesser populated countries and regions?

The solution isn't to force a new Citizen to enter a country or to limit country's growth. I believe would be better to start focusing on less developed countries.
