Greetings cats and kittens! Welcome to the 2nd edition of The Daily Planet. Today I would just like to take some time and let you all know what you can expect to find in this paper. I can't guarantee that I will be publishing on a regular basis but I can guarantee a good read whenever I do. The Daily Planet will be written for all of you out there looking to play this game in a competitive but fun atmosphere. The editorial staff wants the sUSA to grow into a major force in this world but we will not be taking it any more seriously than we would a game of monopoly or basketball with our friends. Log in, play hard, chat with some friends and then log off. It is a winning strategy and you can trust me on that.
I am a firm believer in the Rule of Five so here are the five things you can consistently expect to see in this paper:
1. TOP GUN
2. A Global Point of View This paper will take a global point of view. That is I will focus on the most important aspect of the game. The strength, weakness and interdependence of the nations involved in this game. I will seek to educate myself and my readers on what is going on in the sWorld, who the major players are and what the sUSA can do to become a major player. In order to play this game well we must understand who we are playing against. We are playing a global chess game and we should never forget it.
3. Team Lex
I need any of you with information to contact me and tell me about. Anything interesting and I will publish it in this paper. I can do this anonymously if you like. In the previous game I played that was much like e-sim players that achieved a certain amount of "power" would often keep vital information from the public. This was detrimental to the long term stability of the USA and often tied the hands of those leader our team. I will not let that happen here in the sUSA. If you have knowledge that certain large company owners are subverting our markets or taking advantage of new players let me know. If you are aware of something our government is hiding and the rest of should know than let ME know. I will get the information out and your identity will be my little secret.
4. MORE TOP GUN
5. Interviews While I can't promise to do a better job than fellow TOP GUNAbroham Lincoln I love interviews and I will publish one with an influential foreign citizen with every article I publish. First up is Julius Big Man current Senator from Brazil
Can you tell me what you think Brazil's greatest strength and weakness is?
The greatest is our people. We have many people determined and honest to make Brazil go up to the top of richest nations.
The weakness is that we have only few ways for entering in a war because we have few neighbours countrys and mostly are our ally so it's hard conquering new regions too. I think this can make the game boring to some Brazilians and maybe make some of them left us.
Are there any countries you think have been good friends to Brazil? Yes, I could say some from Alpha, but the one that shows more loyalty to our country, are our Argentinians friends.
Does Brazil consider any other nations to be enemies? Yes, Mexico. At least one of our neighbours needed to be, don't you think!? [EDITORS COMMENT: I DO Think...I wonder what "neighbor" should be the sUSAs' enemy? I would say the one that should not be here in the first place but that is just me ]
What alliance is Brazil in? Are you happy with your current alliance? Alpha and it has being good for us till now.
Would you be interested in a closer relationship with the sUSA? Hmm, I can't see how it's possible, we have different alliances. But we don't know the future.
What is the irc room for Brazil? #e-simbr , our official IRC Chat.
Why are Brazilian women so beautiful? hahahaha, our treasury man! ^^
That's miscegenation from our country. We have a mixture from our natural native indians, with the beauty from all europe, and of course... of beautiful africans asses.
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth.
Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit
different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be
efficiently
managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation.
Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the
game.
Work for the good of your country and
see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules.
First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you
will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress
as a fighter.
You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which
are owned by the state.
After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your
own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock
company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics
in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes.
From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability
to run for the head of the party you're in.
You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws
proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself.
Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you.
You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential
elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state
(for example, who to declare war on).
Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have
a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military.
In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control
over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials.
For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have
to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on
their territory.
You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life
as a pacifist
who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling
products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game.
It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present
in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth
according to their own.
So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
