Is eRep for smarter people?
The Eco State
Well I think it is, would an idiot be interested in making fictional money and dabbling with with fictional politics?
NO they would not, they would say it is boring why bother you jerks; what is the point?
So what is the point? Is it just to flex our intellectual muscles or do we play for fun and war?
Well I believe it is the concept of advancement and being able to improve your citizen buy growing levels and improving your status politically and economically. You have a lust to be better than everyone else especially if they are annoying (you know who you are).
But after playing for a while you actually find it really fun you can get in the forum, http://forums.erepublik.co.uk/, (and spam people) sorry I mean make constructive posts and suggest ideas that will help the eUK to advance. And yes you can go to war and fight the French, but I don't like using trivia to fight.
Not some people out there will be thinking wait a minute I am stupid and I still play eRep, but we are not all gifted I mean I only got 3 B's and 2 D's in my AS's which is OK so it can't be booksmart (well it can but not everybody) it could just be a natural smartness.
Now I know some people will disagree with this article but I don't care this was written for fun!!!!! so I don't cArE At AlL WhOoOoOoOoOoOoO

I agree, I find it fun to have a business and be like "hey you, work harder". I don't think less intelligent people would be interested in this. Also the avatars are back for me, woo! I can see my one legged bird!
Same I can see my EcoCity
Cool, I though I was an idiot for being interested in making fictional money and dabbling with fictional politics.
Thanks for straightening me out 😃

OMGZ I FOWND A NON CLEVERER PERSON ON EREP!!11
improving your status
improving your 'dignitas'
dignitas??????? What I don't understand, all I got was a Swiss euthanasia group

"Cool, I though I was an idiot for being interested in making fictional money and dabbling with fictional politics."
If you think about it, things that we find fun can be simple things like figures on a computer telling you you have a lot of erep money. It doesn't matter what it is.
"dignitas??????? What I don't understand, all I got was a Swiss euthanasia group"
Dignatis means dignity, can't remember what language it's either French, Italian or German, and Dignatas is a euthanasia company, that helps people to die with dignity. I learnt about it in R.E GCSE, euthanasia being one of the topics.
Well.....the thing anout this.......erm..........
*runs*
Dignitas - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dignitas_(Roman_concept)
Intelligence is relative. In my short time here I've seen some people display lots of it. I've also seen examples where it seems sadly lacking.
*cough* bob
> Is eRep for smarter people?
No. lol
"No. lol"
Probably
This game exists so smarter teenagers can extrapolate their political conquests here in Erepublik into fodder for university applications and future internships at major corporations.
i'm not sure whether i would call myself smart,but i know that there are plenty of people the same age as me who would find erep boring,but the thing that makes me like it is that i'ts like suddenly growing up,you get a job get paid and get involved in politics (if you want to)and do lots oif other things.For my age i am really mature and just want to grow up and leave school and erep is like a taste of growing up and going in to the "bigger world"
totally agree, this may be the start of somthing new, games that arent just gory splashed FPSs' (but i still love ownin' at COD).
#This game exists so smarter teenagers can extrapolate their political conquests here in Erepublik into fodder for university applications and future internships at major corporations.'
What about me, I didn't start playing till after I got into Uni.
Also how do you tell if someone is intelligent. Have we defined this so everyone accepts it yet.
exactly belquer. what's the definition of Intelligent. smart 😕= intelligent.
A little bit of intelligence is a dangerous thing. Proclaim how smart you are is rarely a sign of intelligence.
But I'm thick and I'm here.
@jack harris
You learnt something in R.E. GCSE?... lol
As to the article yes I would think that generally people who play this may be more politically or financially minded so probably have some vague interest in current affairs or just have some obsession with numbers and stuff. These traits often make people seem intelligent so that could explain why you don't tend to get too many numpties on.
i think an intelligent person is somebody who both has a great deal of knowledge and the wit to apply it successfully. I also think that there are a great deal of people who could best be described as ignorant on eRepublik, if not actually stupid (lacking in wit).
I was just into politics a lot, but I don't think I wanted to go into real life politics.
Plus I think it's pretty awesome to be at the start of countries history.
I've made my possibly nameless mark on eUK.
i disagree, erepublik is for average peeps, clver enough to play but not smarter enough to do what they do here in real life
It is not smartness nor intelleigence. It is all about intellect. This eRepublik is the game for young intellectuals.
Ya m8 ereps not 4 da smat peeps us chavs can have fun 2.
(just for the not so clever people out there,although this article seems to suggest there are none playing,this is called sarcasm)
I can't stand politics but in a way this makes it more fun 😃

Im a 14 year old and i have learnt so much in erepublik....
People say its rubbish and they take the mick out of me because i play this game but i think this is a good way to express yourself.
Belquer- no one has come up with a satisfactory answer to that question yet. Come back in a millenia our AI will be able to accomodate that request for you.
eNewZealand Government has tried to answer your question six times and failed on every single one of them. Perhaps that is an answer in itself.
lol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence Here is the wiki but it slightly unclear
It's not unclear in the slightest. It clearly states that intelligence is a concept that we don't understand perfectly, that has many different interpretations and applications, and that has at beast imperfect measures.
