The Crystal Ship is newspaper owned by Bogohulja. It was founded on day 1910 (February 11, 2013). Articles are written in Serbo–Croatian, although there are of some articles with English version too.

History

The first name was Ruke Boga, name of a Slavic symbol (look at the logo below). The name was supposed to be temporary, but the changed it only after eight months. His first article was warfare analyses. It was well received by his compatriots, so he continued his work. After a few warfare analyses to start with, he wrote two articles, Meet the eMontenegrins and Djetici, our future where about 50 eMontenegrins wrote about themselves in RL. One of the most successful articles at the beggining of his career as a journalist was Scams in eRepublik, where he explained two ways people get scammed. He got his first and only MM on the day 1979,^[1] 69 days after he opened the newspaper.

Most damaging Montenegrins

This is probably the best know series of articles of "The Crystal Ship". It shows list of Top 20 (30 in later issues) citizens who have citizenship of Montenegro or are members of Montenegrin MU, sorted by damage dealt. New issued is published at the start of each month. Damage is given according to egov4you, meaning damage dealt with bombs and rockets is not counted. What counts is regular fights and guerilla. The series was criticised by some players because of this, mostly players from first and second division, who deal most of their damage using bombs and rockets.

• Mid-February – Mid-March
• April
• May
• June
• July
• August
• September

There was also one article for Most damaging Serbs:

• August

Game of Thrones parodies

Bogohulja came up with the idea of creating a parody of Game of Thrones regarding situation in Montenegro at the time. He and his RL friend Hindoid (now StriderMNE) used a scene from GoT season 3 to show that PyrrusOfEpirus is no true ruller, but only officially President, while having no authority. Parody was well received by community in Montenegro, so they decieded to make another one. Not as successful as the first one, it still got 59 votes (compared to 69 by the first one).

• Current situation in United States of Montenegro
• The South Will Rise Again (GoT parody vol. 2)
