With game-related articles and player-focused content often taking a back seat, weve decided to launch a new interview series dedicated to the people who make eDominations what it is.

Through these interviews, well get to know different members of the community, exploring their experiences, memorable moments, opinions, and ideas about the game.

In this edition, we sit down with GubaOtrovna.

1. How did you discover eDominations, and what made you stay?

I’ve answered this question before, but since not everyone has read my previous answers in other interviews, here is the short version. I came for a brief visit, invited by friends with whom I used to play another game. eDom was in a coma—no admins, hardly any active players, and nothing interesting going on. 

Just before I got completely bored, the admins were resurrected, the players started returning, and it started to get interesting. I liked the gameplay, and I appreciated that the admins are active and strive to improve the game and move things in a better direction (sometimes successfully, sometimes not so much, but I can’t deny all their efforts and everything they’ve done so far). They always respond to questions and tickets, and they listen to the players opinions—even if it sometimes happens only after heated debates. 

I’ve made many new friends, lost some (who turned out not to be real friends and just showed their true colors...), and most important: found a community where I feel at home! That keeps me here mostly and so… the eDom adventure continues 🙂

2. As your country currently leads the first League of Nations, how has the experience been for you so far? How much effort has it taken Cuba to reach the top, and has it been easier or more challenging than you initially expected?

Since I was a little late with the answers, the event just ended. But... yes, Cuba—the country where we decided to gather, won decisively. Was it difficult? Definitely not. Our organization was just like for a standard battle with some OH at the end. Everyone contributed according to their available time and capabilities. 

It was fun, as always, and most importantly – that was long time wanted war 1v1 with our beloved “enemies”. And we crushed them as you can see. When they saw where things were going and that their chances were extremely small, they simply withdrew from the battlefield, making the end of the event a bit boring, but... sometimes losses are hard to swallow. 

Regardless, we appreciate their strong performance. And, last but not least, we also thank our loyal allies who supported us, even without taking a direct part in our battles.

3. Which player has had the biggest influence on your experience in eDominations, and why?

Honestly, no one has influenced me, but there are many players who stand out for their style of play.
Some are skilled at leading and motivating.

Others who are magicians in the financial sphere (I note that there are magicians in increasing your funds and those who magically bring you to bankruptcy)

There are warriors who are always at the forefront of battle and never give up, right to the very end.
There are players who are always ready to help anyone, no matter if they are friend or enemy.
There are those who are completely dedicated to the game and the events.
Some are always ready to bite someone else.
Or just troll and make a joke...

It’s such a colorful place here—and I won’t mention any names, because I’d inevitably leave someone out.

4. What do you think is the biggest challenge facing the eDominations community today?

The biggest challenge? Tough question, but maybe we should just stick together and make the game what it is. The fact is that the desired baby boom is never happening, and honestly, I dont think there would be any new players to join. But let’s never say never, and let’s keep having fun together—with or without new people!

Be colorful, be smiling, be kind 🙂 Thanks for inviting me 🙂
