Interview El Tarlo

Today interview is with El Tarlo, former long time King of Netherlands and Iberian colonies most famous for erasing Spain twice.

- Tell us something about yourself...
Hello. I will try to write a lot of things. I am just a normal player with lots of fans all over the Edom-world. I am just the king of Netherlands and Iberian colonies even some people don't believe me.

- Who is El Tarlo in RL?
El Tarlo in RL? For those who don't know me, I'm Savvas from Kavala, Greece. I will be 39 at 2nd of June and I work now at a regional tv station.

- Why did you choose this nick? Is it from a song?
About my nickname, is from a movie called Les Daltons, a funny movie. https://youtu.be/hKmPeFUIA_w
I don't want to spoil the movie so if you want go and watch it. El Tarlo was a guy with a magic hat that used to steal gold from a small village.

- What is most fun thing you did in edomi?
The most funny moment in Edom was wiping Spain for 2nd time a few days after the first time. We were waiting for this moment many years even before Edom born and the reason we joined this game and picked Netherlands was to be close to Spain and also to find a country that we could control easily.

- You tanked a lot against Spain in good old times when it was defeated...
About Spain, our allies helped us make our dream come true and if they didn't fought in our battles and if they didn't let us to make the last attack and wipe them, nothing would be done since we couldn't make it alone.

- Were they any attempts to bribe you or talk you out not to go attack Spain or not to erase them completely?
I can't remember. I was very excited with the idea and i didn't listen to anyone. I don't think that there was any official message from Spanish gov.

- What aspect of game you like the most and why?
The aspect of the game that i like the most is journalism. I really like to make some "funny" articles in order to try make some people a little bit angry and fight harder while we farming. And i think that this worked well for us.

- You play for Nethelrands and you were president of it many times. How is community there? Looks like no activity...
As i said i am not a president but a king but now things are not good enough in Netherlands. We were a small community with 3-4 rl Dutch players, 3 Romanian, 8 Greeks and some others but now we are just 3-4 active players left. Most of players left the game a long time ago, I invited them to rejoin the game, they joined and now they left again. Something tells me that i will leave too since we completed our mission to wipe Spain. And i would like to that once again our allies for letting us wipe them.

- You call yourself "founder of the Tarkin Doctrine"... Can you elaborate that?
I don't want to comment the Tarkin Doctrine

- What do you don't like in (some) other players?
I like everything in every player. I like and love every player in every game!

- What do you think needs to be changed in this game? What would you like?
I don't think that there are many things to be changed except some new  and funny tournaments. Admin always try to improve the game and i think everyone is happy with that

- How much time you spend here? Be honest...
I used to spend 5-6 hours per day online in the game and talking with friends in discord about battles and othe funny things but now i spend 20-30 minutes per day at the best case.

- Do you think politics in game is like that in RL?
RL politiics sucks and if we make game poltics like RL things will be bad for the game.

- Tell me how is your character in game alike you in RL?
About myself in game and in rl, i am just a different person. El Tarlo is just a role for me in games. There is also a game where El Tarlo is different character from Edom El Tarlo.

- Have you some message for other players?
My message to players is " we have all something in common, we all like this game, Even if we fight in battles against each other, we are all members of the Edominations community. We are all friends"
