Signs you play eRepublik too much
•
by John Gormley
1: When you tell your boss you can't work at night because you might miss out on a "Hard Worker" medal.
2: Whenever you're using public transport, and it ceases to function, you scream out, "OMFG, STUPID ADMINS?!?!!??!?! OMG".
3: Whenever you are dissatisfied with a politician in real-life, you think "Who elected this stupid two-clicker?"
4: When you worry more about the state of the eIrish economy than about the RL Irish economy.
5: When someone asks you who the Prime Minister is and you say that you think it's jamesw.
6: If you think that the IMF are PTOing Ireland.
7: If you write an article entitled "Signs you play eRepublik too much".
8: When you fail an exam your excuse is that they got rid of the library.
9: When you get out of bed at 00:00 eRepublik time just to work and train.
10: When you examine real-life products and wonder what quality they would be in eRepublik.
11: When you get to a stage where you can't stop complaining about the game but yet still play it for hours.
12: When you think that the "Northern Ireland Power Sharing Government" is normal.

Should add "when you accidentally call a real-life nation by it's eName (aka eIreland when you meant to say Ireland)
I've done that a couple times now. So embarassing 😳
13. When you think the RL John Gormley is named after the erepublik character
Ugh, one problem with the picture... it needs a full buffet to the right hand side.
14. You secretly dream that eRep is actually a training program for a potential RL career in government.
15. Back when the Oil spill in the gulf was still going on, you accidentally uttered the word "britf*g" whilst describing BP.
I had a fun time explaining that one to my friends.
16. You constantly think to yourself that you need to stop wasting time better spent on real life projects on eRepublik, but still try to get your friends to play just so you can get the work and train bonuses and the society builder medal. Oh, and to make eIreland more populous...
17. You accidentally log onto eRepublik to send emails to RL friends.
18. You put off writing essays for class because you need to wait for the right time to strike in a battle.
19. You stop reading RL news because you get tired of all the eRepublik news.
20. Losing a hard worker medal at day 29 is worse than getting a F on a test.
When you spend more time managing a fake company with fake money, than you do working for real money.
21)When you sign your school work "Paul Proteus" when that is not your real name
I've actually done that...
a lot
22) When you think Ireland has actually taken over Wales
23) When your girlfriend becomes an eCitizen so she can spend spend more time with you.
Love it james 😁

When you like the eJohnGormley far more than you could ever like the real one, and each time he's on RTE news you wonder why he doesn't look like Don Draper. Meh.
that's pretty tragic James Keiller.
reminds me of Patton - Irish Princess.
LOL James! 🙂 haha!
24) When your google docs account has a folder named "personal stuff" rather than one named "erepublik"...
25) when you're complaining about the lack of 3rd party sites with statistics.
26) when you start discussing erepublik with friends that don't play as if they understand the basic concepts.
27) when it appears as your most visited site on chrome. More than "welcome to a new tab".
2😎 when you try to avoid going on holiday in case you miss out on a HW medal.
😁
You would not believe how many times thats happened.
When the first thing you do when you get in from school is to try and get on the IRC and organise the ICA. (Was actually my first thought one day)
2😎 when you try to avoid going on holiday in case you miss out on a HW medal.
Yep.
