La zingarella! Il Trovatore and this Game.

Dear friends, e-opponents,
"La zingarella!" is the cry of the Anvil (because of the hammering...) Chorus, seen in the first scene of the second act of Il Trovatore (1852) by Verdi. The transcription is from Therion, a metal band formed by excellent musicians:

A. Trovatore is a very complex (and confusing) opera, where love, hatred and magic are thrown on the stage in a quite peculiar mix. No happy end there. Only the old ones and the cheaters survive, LOL.
B. The original score (partiture) of the piece I brought above:
Un diruto abituro sulle falde di un monte della Biscaglia.
Nel fondo, quasi tutto aperto, arde un gran fuoco. I primi albori.
Azucena siede presso il fuoco. Manrico le sta disteso accanto sopra una coltrice ed avviluppato nel suo mantello; ha l'elmo ai piedi e fra le mani la spada, su cui figge immobilmente lo sguardo. Una banda di Zingari è sparsa all'interno
Zingari
Vedi! Le fosche notturne spoglie
De' cieli sveste l'immensa volta;
Sembra una vedova che alfin si toglie
I bruni panni ond'era involta.
All'opra! all'opra!
Dàgli, martella.
(Dànno di piglio ai loro ferri del mestiere; al misurato tempestar dei martelli cadenti sulle incudini, or uomini, or donne, e tutti in un tempo infine intonano la cantilena seguente🙂
Chi del gitano i giorni abbella?
La zingarella!
C. Now, the english translation of the score:
The slopes of a mountain in Biscay. It is dawn. A great fire is burning. Azucena is sitting by the fire. Manrico is stretched out at her side, wrapped up in his cloak. His helmet lies at his feet, his sword is in his hands, and he is staring at it motionlessly. A band of gypsies is scattered around them.
GYPSIES
See! the heaven's great vault
removes its gloomy, night?time tatters!
It seems like a widow who takes off at last
the dark clothes that enfolded her.
To work! To work! At it! Hammer!
Who brightens the gypsy man's days?
The gypsy maid.
(to the women, pausing in their work
Pour me a draught: strength and courage
the body and soul draw from drinking)
Oh, look, look! A ray of the sun
sparkles brighter in my/your glass!
To work! To work!
Who brightens the gypsy man's days?
The gypsy maid!
D. Ok, and now what has Trovatore to do with this game?
Indeed. But it does have to do with this game: Who brightens the gypsy man's days?
E. To my opinion, we are all gypsies trying to make a living here by hammering (Anvil Chorus...). Who brightens our days?
La zingarella! The little gypsy maid.
Now, we are the gypsies, who is La Zingarella who brightens our days?
1. La zingarella is every little girl who is cheating and thinks that she is not seen because of her charm.
2. La zingarella is every Politician who begs for votes.
3. La zingarella is everyone who pays money to a sick game. So, it is me too.
4. La zingarella is every non punished multie/zombie.
5. La zingarella is every nationalist who believes that in this game he will fight against his untreated inferiority complex.
6. La zingarella is every e-idealist who thinks that the Revolution will begin from digits. Every mouNio in this comic Matrix.
7. La zingarella is you and me.
We ALL brighten the days of few who are earning their money here.
Thanks a lot for any vote in this quite difficult article,
exohoritis/Kostas
P.S. I do not fight against non-fighting, even proven cheaters, opponents. La zingarella.

Dear Kosta you maybe remember 7-8 months ago when the Turkish president was banned from admins (cheating again - ddos attack ?) and the Greek government decided NOT to attack to eTurkey because of that....
And was the result ? After some months Turkish cheaters made fake gold, fake products, fake accounts and fought against us, against your RL money....
The Turkish players boycott the game NOT because they want a FAIR and HONEST game. Be sure that when they find again an exploit to win against your RL money they will do it again and they will not have the honor not to do that..
They boycott the game because of 2 reasons:
1. They can not sign peace treaty with eGreece with no turkish grain region because the turkish people will get very very angry.
2. They don't have (for now...) the fake golds, products etc to fight.....
My opinion is that we can take all the turkish regions we want to take, WITHOUT SPENDING 1 GOLD...

Dear Kostas.
As very well know, I did my best with the Turkish President in order to made peace. We had an agreement. At the very specific time which an action from Turkish CP was waiting for (in terms of our agreement), he "forgot it". So he was broken the agreement at his very first obligation. It is very difficult for me to explain to our citizens that there is a "road to peace". WE NEED AN ACTION FROM TURKEY POINT OF VIEW, that show us respect and our agreements will be on line with our words. Apart of this you can see the way that they looking the game. Scripts, illigal applications, cheating etc. NOT ALL but a team of people. I am very close to Nekont opinion. At least for the moment. Waiting a "move" from the other side.
Try to watch also what Therion made out of the Ninth in E minor of Dvorjak and the Third in C minor of Saint-Saëns.
"P.S. I do not fight against non-fighting, even proven cheaters, opponents. "
Me too. I prefer Skopians in each case xD
e-tr made a mistake on boycotting the game without making peace with enemies. i also believe all e-citizens must boycott the game cuz its getting worse and worse, but not like this.
All presidents of the e-world should make a meeting and decide about stopping all the wars, everything. just wt during the boycott. The game is going worse for sure, i am also one of the players thinking about quitting soon.
Admins only think of money and reputation. Look they want us to vote for e-rep as the best strategy game, strategy my .ss. first answer the tickets on time, be brave enough to ban all the cheaters,fakers,multiers,be objective, then you can deverse to be the best strategy game and ask us to vote for you.
I believe there are cheaters all over the world, not in e-tr but only turkish ones are unfold by the admins cuz because of the last babyboom in e-tr, e-tr become a strong country and they dont want to change the balances of the world.
People of the e-world please dont act like e-tr is the only country who is creating and using multies, fakes, bugs. Nobody believes it.
This game is going worse and worse everyday...
I am not a la zingarella hehehehe : P
and i am still waiting on the world to change. lol

@romper rofl, what age are u 7-8?
@ Romper,
bro do you really believe that the game is getting worse by only one single group of players?
and others, you were saying cheating is nonsense 'cos winning by no real challenge is not satisfactory which I totaly agree.
now your opponent is standing up to admin. you believe them or not its your choice.
So you dont have to stand beside them but having pleasure to invade such opponent while he is not fighting is little bit childish if you ask me. But invade no worries we can take it back faster then you invade its not the point. The point is, is that the way you want to play this game?
@exo, I usually dont regard highly the players that plays with rl money, but I should admint you are a straight forward guy
good game to everyone
romper, i think you are insincere.
is the lazokrats only problem of this game? then why dont they ban them all if it is gonna be solve all the problems.
try to walk in other people's shoes maybe then you can have different points of view.

Your level proves eR sux.
It may sound insane, but - Admin should allow multi accounts for everyone and change the Fight button in a way that allows players to input the multiplier number. Thus, removing the scripting advantages.
The logic is :
If they cannot handle it, let them allow it.
If some wankers have time to open 2000 accounts let's them do it.
Sell for real money only inventory space and right to vote!
No GOLD for sale.
More money = Victory ... Can you say me , we are equal ? or at least can we ? , no never ... coz more money spent more power you gain, its NOT fair... You guys just talking about cheats stuff, Someone cheat because game gets unfair for him/her/them(etc), He is thief - but ever you asked why ? Ever you tried to make game equal for all, no coz you have money, you can spend, and dominate! Thats why Admins let ppl cheat (coz you'll never buy gold if there was no challenger). I'm playing this game nearly 2 years, i left my country twice for 'illegal activities' - I'm Head worker of eTurkey Communes (aka TurKo) - Also member of RSP (Left Wing Party) - Me & my friends reported nearly 3k player (with %90 ban rate), Now i'm asking to you how much script user you reported ? OR ever you tried to stop script ? There is an unfair advantage for all legal users... That's why there is a boycott !

We want peace. Is in Turkish hands to make peace with us. We can give them back all their original regions and we can keep Cyprus.
About the boycott and fairness, i didn't saw turkish gov making statements when Lazocrats exploiting the game for a month or more. All i did saw was "unban alexa, unban zappa, unban fernu.." etc, in a few words unban all the cheaters!!! In fact i didn't saw them taking our side about fairness in any matter, the opposite, they were making fun of us. The point is, everything they do, they doing it for self interest and only for that.
