Ending of the season + unaired interviews

I would like to thank every reader personally in the name of God`s Notebook team. We really couldnt have achieved any of this without all of your support. My favorite moment is gonna be when people started asking when is gonna be the next interview, which speaks that we started penetrating people`s hearts.

I would like to believe that our work had a small contribution in creating and retaining player activity. Votes, comments and subs are a way of saying "Hey, we are here!". Among the bots and zombies, we can all proudly say together that there are at least 100 people active enough that have read at least 1 article and decided to stay informed.

When we take out the ASTRA-related articles, the contribution of each and every one of you, fellow readers, to the newspaper is 276 comments and 439 votes. Impressive numbers that are currently record holders, my hat goes off to you.

If i was chasing the numbers i simply would have used click-bait headlines and spammed the articles in every country`s discord server, not just in the game server and Saudi Arabia`s server. My target audience was the average joe, the guy that logs every day to work and fight without government-level access to information. My goal was to make him acquainted with the leaders of other communities that come from different environment than what he played so far. If any community leader shared these intro-level interviews to his people, i thank you for spreading democracy. Tyranny thrives in the absence of information.

Without the support i would have long ago quit printing. I dont wanna sound ungrateful but the game started taking its toll. Printing started to feel more like a chore than having fun. Eclesiar is a game with many active communities so i had at least a dozen more people in mind to invite to the GN office. I dont know if i`ll ever print more but for now im taking a break and announcing the ending of the season.

With that said it saddens me that some invited people, for one reason or another, decided to not participate. In chronological order that would be Harreki, Thracius, zerogrozavu and Svetlio77_77.  In the spirit of democracy and transparency, below you can find the asked questions that are unique to all of them.

Harreki:
3. I dont think i`ve ever heard the name of your alliance block, whats it called? And is China officially part of it?
4. I see Bulgaria`s fighting spirit is back in the game. Bulgaria already showed might that is to be revered. Have the enemy offered you a NAP so far or some plea for a peace talk? Or vice-versa have you offered anyone a NAP?
6. I dont suppose Todor Zhivkov is your distant grandpa? Are you pushing for every Bulgarian to be part of the state commune? Are people that want to play alone ostracized? What business opportunities can Bulgaria offer to people who are not focusing on warring and instead want to be entrepreneurs?
9. If you have watched Game of Thrones, you remind me of High Sparrow, do you agree?

Thracius:
3. The eagle finally landed! What did it cost to achieve this feat?
later changed to:
The eagle finally landed and had made a base in Balcan! Why did you retrieve last week after fighting so costly to own a base?
4. How is Steel Talons different from American society? Do they not have full power over the country?
6. As vice president, what is your job exactly? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0tpjs8zflQ
9. If you have watched Game of Thrones, you remind me of Ned Stark, do you agree?

zerogrozavu:
3. Has Romania recovered from the WW1? In retrospect what gained wisdom can you share with our readers?
4. Romania has always been in top 10 countries by population, it has a large pool of people with similar game experiences. Are there any plans to invite more people during this Refferal Event?
6. I see that Veterans holding has not paid a single dividend so far. Are you running a different model from the last beta or can we call you zeroscamazu with right?
9. If you have watched Game of Thrones, you remind me of Aemon Targaryen, do you agree?

svetlio77_77:
3. Are you aware that you have many fans among our readers?
4. Is Bulgaria a communist country? Are you happy with your life as a construction worker?
6. Are you a furry? Dali volis Nameless u dupe?
9. If you have watched Game of Thrones, you remind me of Poderick Payne, do you agree?

I wish everyone merry holidays that are to come.
