Okay, I will try my best 
But as usual don't have unlimited time for everything.
Name(Which I can call you eg. "Sally" instead of "Forwards Unlimited...blah blah blah): Konstantin
Company Name: Dynamic Company
Age: 28
How long have you been playing Kapilands?: about 1 year, but I had an account about 2 years ago, which was abandoned
What realm(s) do you play on?: both
Do you "understand" Kapilands, eg have you been around long enough to help people along in the game?: I hope I do But there is always something to learn here
Do you have a good fun-loving personality?: I think yes
Have you ever written before for any kind of newspaper/magazine? If so what type, and did it go well?: No
Are you willing to work towards a united goal of making the Kapilands newspaper the best it can be?: Yes
What area do you wish to be part of in the newspaper?: Mostly "Hints and tips", and may try to help in "Articles"
Of your chosen area(s), can you please give an example of each(must be of decent size, relevance and quality)?: I'm a mathematician and like different numbers and formulas. So, if I find something really useful, I will be happy to publish this in the newspaper.
- Hint for small companies:
Don't try to produce everything yourself (it's the most common error of small companies). Focus on 1-3 products and work on their qualities, buy all other materials from other players or from market.
To prove that just try to calculate profit of the buildings slot.
- Hint for medium companies:
When you are able to buy premium, use free slots for the contest buildings. After the contest you will have enough cash to start big expansion, and you don't need to renew your premium until the end of this expansion.
- Hint for big companies:
Don't overestimate worth of materials quality. Do better materials bring you more profit?
Example: cotton X+2Q, textiles Y+10Q
With cotton q0 you spend 3*X and get 1*Y for textiles q0
With cotton q3 you spend 3*(X+2*3)=3X+18 and get 1*(Y+10*1) = Y+10 for textiles q1
As you see, with this price for cotton you lose money. The maximum acceptable price for cotton in this case is X+1.1Q

Agent00skid: Thanks for that, now I can read the older papers as well, even on R2
I'll read though it, and I'll definately want to help out with this thing later on, as soon as I figure out what section(s) I want to do, I'll fill in the form.
by the way, online translators: Bad idea.
some words cannot be translated properly by websites, when several meanings go into one word or whatever.
example:
The dutch word "wat" is used for the english words "what" and "some".
the translator cannot see which english word it would have to use if you translated into english, translators are NOT a good idea at all, it's best to have a human editor proofreading and editing the text.

Well ok screw this auditioning thing, some of you guys I know can speak in english So if your active on the forums and good at it no need to apply so formally- The formalities are more for those who I haven't seen writing around the forum.
Of course No-body put me in charge as I was reminded "kindly" by GoldenEye in a mail
If I get a team together though it would be awesome and I'm sure i can make the "un-official team" into an official one XD
If your interested can you please send me a mail EITHER in game or on the forums with contact details for you. Eg an e-mail or MSN or skype.
No other messengers thank you- I get confused enough with skype and msn as it is! So either skype msn and definatley an e-mail address

Ok all leader positions taken XD
You leaders need to get recruiting a bit. Just a small team for each. You only need one page every 2weeks at first. If you get loads of things then you can save them up over time and use them in later editions etc.
When you get some ideas/a team together give me a mail. You need any help also mail me. I'm supposed to be organizing this so I EXPECT mails XD Mailing me isn't just a possibility it is a NECESITY!!!!
