1.For the beginning, tell us something about yourself in Real-life. Hi ^^ I'm 29, french, computer engineer, and i'm currently creating a company to develop online games, with my honey, Lyne Faynel. 2. Are you the strongest player of eRepublik ? How does it feel to be one of the strongest players of the eWorld. No, i'm 4th in strength, but my rank is quite bad, i have no platinum card (and no gold exploit either...) so i rank slowly. It's cool to be strong though, especially since my darling is strong too: we are often hired as tanks or mercenaries to fight all over the world, so even if we don't play as much as we used to, we still meet a lot of people and stay involved :) 3. You've been playing eRepublik for 2 years. How didn't you get bored ? What kept you so long ? There's only one reason: Lyne. Without her, i would have left one year ago, at least. As i said in my first answer, we work together IRL, we are under pressure and deeply involved in that project, so eRep is a great way to have some leisure together, to take 10-20 minutes breaks during our work, etc. Before our collaboration on this project, i was also staying for the community, but now, honestly, too many cool people left and i feel less and less bound to those remaining. 4. What is the current condition in eFrance ? I'm not involved in french politics anymore, so it's hard to tell. I'd say they lack of leaders, of people with foresight and the ability to cross gaps. 5. What do you think about the breakdown of PHOENIX ? Hmm, "lol" ? You know, i was among the people who led PEACE GC, saw some countries tear it apart... Phoenix was just a PEACE without the people who tried to keep the spirit of the original alliance, so, in my opinion, it was bound to die like that. And you know, alliances forged over a common hatred or common short-term interests can't last too long. Trust matters, and when you've broken trust once, changing the alliance's name doesn't heal the wound. 6. If you could chose, with which countries would create a new alliance ? You mean, for France ? I'd say UK, UNL, Italy, Germany, Romania, Croatia, China, USA, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland. And maybe Brazil, Argentina and Russia. 7. What do you think about the Bulgarian-Macedonian war? Gold fountain against gold fountain ? ^^ I don't like the RL nationalist stuff behind all those wars. But at least, it gives us bloody battles, and the usual DDoS/hack/cheat/etc talk after each round xD 8. Were you ever in Serbia in Real-life ? No, sadly enough i never left France. 9. What do you think about us, eSerbs ? I hate you, you won Davis Cup ^^ Nah, seriously, i like the way you became a superpower after being TOed and invaded. I'm not very found of the ultra-military look of your community but most Serbs i've met here are really cool, which i definitely can't say about some other countries. 10. Should Admin add eKosovo to eSerbia ? As i said, all the RL political stuff looks wrong to me. I understand it's a major income source for eRep but i feel much better in imaginary worlds to play war games. Politics are serious business, and 99% of people giving their opinion about a political debate don't really know what they're talking about, and just repeat what someone got into their head. 11. When somebody mentions Serbia to you in Real-life, what's the first thing that crosses your mind ? Tennis and eRepublik :D 12. What's the job of an eRepublik Ambassador ? How did you become one ? It's not a job, i think it's a reward. I became one because i organized the first french babyboom (april 09) and helped the second (august 09), while building most of the (still in use) operations to welcome newcomers: the french invitation portal (ebabyboom, created first by my friend niouton), the "service militaire" and "conscription" (baby training army, still very popular ^^), a unique family system (with roleplay and benefits for the parents), etc. I'm just sad because i did most of these works with my darling and she didn't get the Ambassador status... Never understood why. 13. Do you buy GOLD for RL cash ? What do you think about that ? No, never did and never will. I could pay for an extra-storage if needed, but i don't like direct ingame advantages bought with RL money. And heck, i'm not rich enough to buy enough gold to be worth it anyway :D 14. Do you think that eSerbia can conquer eUSA one day ? Why not ? Even France did :D 15. How do people in eFrance look at eRepublik ? I think most players are bored and disgusted by the crazy "updates" since V2, and by the blindness (not to say unfairness) of some decisions from admins. I think many players will leave if they find another interesting game. So, i work :D 16. What's the craziest thing you did in eRepublik ? Wow... Maybe trying to talk seriously with a 15 years old iranian citizen who was telling me (PEACE GC Secretary General and French president) that his country would immediately leave the alliance if i, personaly, didn't admit that Israel was the root of all devils and forced the ePakis faggots who wrote the Holy Book of Dio to beg pardon and erase forever the chapter about Dio breeding men and goats to populate eIran. Yeah, that was epic :D Never understood how this kid could have been in power in a country with so many cool players (and much more open-minded that you'd think reading the line above, lol) 17. Now a few flash questions. What do you like more : a) rifle - b) gun None ! I don't like weapons :D But say gun, it's smaller and easier to hide in your jacket :3 a) FIFA - b) PES Last time i played a soccer game, it was PES3... So, PES... a) beer - b) Serbian brandy I gotta try your brandy, sorry. So, beer. a) Romper - b) Desert Hamster I'm quite neutral with both, neither friend nor enemy. a) kidney - b) heart Heart, obviously. Mine keeps thumping hard for my darling, i can't forget it, even one minute - while i definitely can forget my kidney xD Or did you ask what i'd better EAT ? xD 18. Which country is currently the most economically stable ? No clue, sorry. Well, ok, let's say China: stable currency, lots of resources. But i may be completely wrong. 19. What are your future plans ? Making a browser MMO game that won't disappoint players. We'd take a deep pride in it, really. 20. What's your position in eFrance ? With which part are you proud of ? I'm lying over my honey's warm body, and definitely proud of the shivers on her soft skin. (Seriously: we are lone cannons, and we're proud of our work done long, long ago... that's all.) 21. What would you say to eSrbs ? Ohai o/ When you see Lyne or me fighting for a BH, please don't waste your money (and ours), just send a pm and we'll find a deal so that we all get our medals :D And most of all, keep playing for the fun ;-)
