What is it like to be a CP?

Been a CP means that the people of the country give you their trust and the exclusive authority to control their country for a month. 14th time now not the same as was 1st time. I can tell you some story. My 1st Cp therm was in September of 2015. This was my 1st Hungarian CP month and it just started when we got a coup form Nemesis (Romanian MU who celebrated something with this coup on Hungary) 2nd one was also memorable, hard times too but my close relationship started then with Greece and Croatia too. But not comparable of been Croatian CP ( I was 4 time and 1,5 years long croatian MoFa too) or Greek CP. There is a big difference between the load, it is much heavier and the pressure and expectations huge always!.


To be a different CP in every nation?
Each nation had different expectations and thinking! Hungary was challenging and always balancing between different opinions, it was so hard to make any decision cause there was always many opinions and endless talkings! I was always so anxious of what will happen on each and every step! Croatia is a top fighting country, always in the middle of wars, with great and quite united society the biggest challenge was (the time that I had to spend in order to cover all wars and laws etc) to be CP ther, it was almost 24/7 most of the time, but I always had too much support and help from many people. This was a really great teamwork led by the one and only Lemmy. I have some of my best friends in the game there! Greece is a combination of the other two, I took over in really hard times, always having the support of really caring people and the load was always great to handle, mostly because too many people in Greece have extremely limited time to spare or no interest to spend time in government!


What is it like to be a MoFA?
Great job anyway, I enjoy it too much, mostly because of all the communication and the international friends I got from it! Really hard work too, it needs too much time and in many cases it is uncertain what the output of any talks will be!

To be a different MoFA in every nation?
That was not much of a trouble, the job is the same and all countries I have been Mofa are on the same side… Here I have to tell you something that I consider very important! It is impossible for any of us not to make mistakes. The only way not to make mistakes is doing nothing at all! So as many more things you try to do, the more mistakes will come on the way! Sometimes this has to do cause we trust the wrong people, other times it has to do cause we let our insecurities lead us in rush actions or poor thinking words. I want to say a big sorry to any people I may have hurt because of that, my intentions were never to hurt people's feelings, just to protect my beloved nations from possible trouble in game. And it is a game, we must never forget that, we play to have fun, sometimes win, sometimes lose and that’s it! We should never let it get bad in our head, heart and soul.


How do you rate the Croatian community?
Croatian community is so united and focused! I love playing together with them, I consider myself one of them too!

For me, the Croatian community is good and I am glad to be there. How do you evaluate the time spent with Croats when you were also a CP and MoFA?

It was some of the best times I had in the game, these are so precious times for me. They treated me as their family and this is what we are since then! There were many people helping and as I said before, Lemmy has been like a father and friend all the way through. This had a great impact in my personal life too, Zadar, as much as Athens, is like my 2nd home, we have spent and keep spending great time there with friends! And additionally, there are some other people from other countries that I need to mention, as our friendship started through that time! MaM, Fanis, Vaggelisker and Zeus! This international group of friends is like a second family to me, caring, supporting and being by my side all times, in and out of the game alike! There are too many players that we have bonded together that I love and care about and have a great friendship from this game but I think that these 4 together with Lemmy are the closest of all!

Now you are with the Greeks or CP and how do you see the Greek community?
Pure love, I have some of my best friends here and their love and caring, value too much for me! Our bond is great, I feel myself Greek over the last years! I learn Greek language and I travel to Greece to meet my friends every year!

What do you think about the coronavirus epidemic?
It has a really great impact on the world, everything has been working different ways after that! Too many restrictions, economic disaster, many deaths, life of too many people has changed dramatically. Governments will try to help people recover at some point, but my opinion is that the only way to get over really hard situations is people helping each other.
