Hello everyone,




This article is adressed to people like me, I mean those who are active in the game, being often in touch with the community, fighting and enjoying the game even if it isn't the best we've ever played.

Where to start... Well, about the way we play, I suggest people to not taking the game too seriously, especialy when it comes to alliances.
I mean, alliances... A group of members ready to help each others in any situations, expected to sacrifice in emergencies. Sharing, based on a democratic way to be ran...

Ok, so now forget that, forget alliances, because eRepublik doesn't count alliances but group of people being selfish and thinking they are the best.

Today, you're playing for a country, for example, you fight for USA, you sacrifice yourself a bit, give your efforts, maybe you tank, and that's even worse.
Why ?
Because you're not even sure that next month, USA will still be your ally. There is like a smell of chaos in the air lately. Rumors about alliances coming this summer, rest assured this is more than rumors.

Next alliances are said to be gathering countries like Poland, Brazil, Spain, USA, China, Argentina...

I think you can easily see what's the common asset in all those countries, they are strong and having a huge amount of inhabitant.
They don't care now, only victory is their interest. One day I asked someone being a part of those coming events:
"What about France, will we be welcomed to join ?"
Answer :
"I don't know, maybe, but you would have to deal with the fact of being permanently occupied by Poland."

Alliance eh ? So that's how they see it ?

What is sometimes making me exasperate is seeing countries saying like :
"We get no support, come on we're not listening to..."
And they have 100/100 as bonuses.

And then you take a look at the map and see that :




For example, Germany, occupied for months now, do you hear them complaining ?
Do you hear anything from them claiming that they have no support blabla, they are erased, and yet enjoying the game, supporting their allies, helping in any way they can.

The main idea behind this, is when a country gets bonuses, then it wants more and can't appreciat the least of what it has. It always worked like this since I play this game.

I come back to what I said earlier :
"because eRepublik doesn't count alliances but group of people being selfish and thinking they are the best"

You've maybe been a bit shocked or something by those words, now let me explain :

When I was TERRA dSG, at the end of my term, countries had to vote for two SG for June: Oblige and Kev.
I was in the Oblige's cabinet as a dSG again, the day before elections was about to be closed, Oblige was winning the election, every countries voted and that was normaly done.
But what a surprised when I woke up the day after, kev won the election, how comes ? Well, I took a look at the sheet and saw that America and Canada changed their votes, why ? I was wondering so... I came to Oblige and asked what the hell happened.
And you know what, here's the fact :
Rylde said he had pressure to change his vote...



Am I the only one being able to read that candidates have to not begging for votes in PM and querry ?

That's the way it goes guys, alliances are ran by people who doesn't care about you. They took decisions without asking people about their opinions.

What is funny, is the way how new alliances are created, those old fags create them, they don't even ask their people to know if they agree.
It's like this, one day they are fed up with the current situation, so they start shit you have no control on, and you see things collapsing around you, without being able to change anything. And the day after, you're supposed to fight against a country which was your ally yesterday.

I don't want that and I guess you too, so I suggest you, to choose a country and/or travel, set your ass somewhere where you feel good, do not expect too much from the country you're in, just enjoy the game.
Create around you a circle of friends, a good one, people you feel good to be with. And play quietly. That's how we should play now,

This is a short sum up of my thoughts and what I saw for all those months spent working for countries and alliances. I don't read what I write before publishing, I'm too lazy for that, I just wish you to have fun, and really :
Do not take this game too seriously and do not expect too much from countries/alliances.


Have fun !
