Introduction

i would like to be considered. I recognize that at a glance i might be an obvious no, do to some...content related reasons...of the past. I would obviously have a higher maturity level as a volunteer and representative, than i do as a disgruntled consumer.

if we can move past that, i am an otherwise ideal candidate. i represent the "grepolis is a lifestyle, not a game" portion of the community. ive had every experience in the game you can have at this point. from trying to organize first time players far on the rim. to playing deep in the enemy core as a small group at the highest of levels. ive rage ghosted from frustrations with the game. ive participated in WW, and ive left servers to avoid them.

as one of most well known players, and biggest personalities, ive heard alot of opinions, and had infinite conversations, about the game with other players. from meta-game to the most obvious of subjects.

if you want honest opinions from someone who plays the game hard everyday without cheating. im definitely a solid choice. if you go the (more likely) route and select someone whos not me. i hope you select at least a few people who can offer similar viewpoints.

Edit: i assumed i t was obvious i was applying for en considering this is the En. externals. but to clarify, i am interested in the EN council

Introduction

I would like to be considered as a candidate for player council - in English.

I have played Grepolis for a few years now, and acted as a moderator for a short term, so I have some idea how that relationship works. As an older player, I do have some maturity to bring to the table :)

I like to help players with problems, and regularly read the forums, commenting and contributing - predominantly in a constructive manner. I have some ideas that could help the game improve for players myself, and will take time to listen to ideas submitted by players in my region - passing them on for consideration.

Thank you for reading and I hope you will consider me when voting comes around.

Introduction

Hi I have been playing grepolis for about 5 years now and I have enjoyed every moment of it and how the game has changed from a computer only game which limited where I could play it and now on smartphone which always makes it alot better and easier to play if I get picked in the council I will honor it with a sword in hand and all the small and large Greek city states that are in all the grepolis world's

Introduction

Please consider this my application for candidacy in English. I have several years of experienced as a Grepolis player on both US and EN servers. I enjoy interacting with other players and I have a great deal of base knowledge of the actual mechanics of the game. I was at one time an in game mod on for the US servers so I have a strong interest in representing players because I lost that position for no other reason than who I knew. I feel that this council will help other Grepolis players have a voice and an outlet for ideas and ways to improve the game play for all. Thank you for your consideration....... EstacyGold

Introduction

I would like to be considered for EN council.

I would say that I am one of the longest continuously playing members of Grepolis, having begun playing Grepolis in early 2010. I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly in this game (I can happily give examples of all 3), and would like to share my input and feedback with the game developers.

Additionally, I speak to many, many players in game, on skype and on forums. I would solicit feedback from all players with whom I speak and seek to use my council status to serve as a liaison between the playerbase and the game developers and managers in order to make the gaming experience better for everyone involved.

I have never had any affiliation with Innogames. I have always just been a player. But this type of role would suit my interest because it is focused on how to make the game better...a topic we can all agree is in everyones best interest.

Thanks for reading.

Introduction

I'll throw my name in the hat for this as well. I have been playing this game since En3 Gamma. You know, that thing where people like to say there was less hugging, but actually there was more of it + more backstabbing. I've been here since I was in high school and am still here as I finish up my last semester at Michigan State and begin to prepare to apply for graduate schools. This has been my favorite online game for a long time and I've had a lot of good memories here so I'd like to give back to the community.

I've always done a lot of community building from hosting world chats, to doing my part to keep the forums active, to hosting a premade of a handful of experienced players and joining late near the rim so that we could invite newer players and let them learn while at the same time fighting other experienced alliances. In my time in this game, I've experienced what its like to fight as an underdog against good alliances and the challenges that come with that and what its like to be sitting as the top dog alliance of the world. In that time I've come across the issues that this community faces and we've discussed it at length. If Inno and the community want some solutions to the following:

End Game Crown Sharing An increase to competitive play Better balances in major game changes

Then I'm the man to consider.

Oh since we need good candidates. @Miknel you and I have our own personal issues. But anyone who would say that you wouldn't do well on this spot would be out of their mind. So run.

Introduction

Hello comrades,

I have been playing this game for cloes 4 yeras now, lead many successful alliances and got a load of experience. What this council needs is someone who knows the players, what they want and need. Someone down to earth who was in the thick of it and just got experience under his belt, knows many people and just is down to earth. I am this kind of person so I will not bother with long letters and overly egos that say how awesome they are.

I get things done.

Introduction

There are several reasons why I believe I woùld be ideal for this role for the EN community. Firstly, I've been playing the game since world Pi, so have quite a bit of experience. I've played the game in a variety of different ways and with lots of different people; I've been top player in a world, won a world, even simmed all the way through one once; Ive helped lots of players to learn how to play, but never stopped learning myself. Ive fought, negotiated, whatever to get my alliance through, big or small. One of the glories of the game is that there are lots of ways of playing it, and a lot of fun to be had whichever way you play; there's no one set way, and I would represent all types of players. I've held positions of responsibility in alliances in every world I've played, and done every role in an alliance - but I've never forgotten that leaders work for the alliance, not the other way round. And the best bit of the game is that it's social; I love talking to other players and listen to what they have to say. I also think the Forums are an important part of the game, as it provides another way to interact with other players. Additionally, I've written one of the most popular Papers of recent years, going on the likes I've received - I take the game seriously, but not over-seriously, always remembering it is just a game, and a sense of humour is always useful. Outside this game, I've performed similar roles for other games, but I've also done precisely this role many times in my career - as representative of systems users to developers both internally and with SAP. As a result, I am an expert on translating a list of wishes into an achievable system spec, and even more so at prioritising changes to give users the maximum amount of improvement possible within the developer resource available - something that both users and developers almost always get wrong. So in short I believe both my game experience and my work experience combine to make me perfect for the job. That and me being Smarter Than The Average Bear, of course. ;)
