Afternoon WTPers,

Good News; I come bearing updates from Internal Affairs

As promised once upon a time, Internal Affairs was going to make its own newsletter. We'd report on our work as WTP's largest dept, let you (the partiers) keep us on track for our goals, take in new ideas and brainstorm..etc

But because Hale is.. um....absorbed, in other things, I thought I'd make an article.

(Trrbl excuses FTW !)

Firstly, FPS is back up and running. For our newer members who may not know what that is, let me give you a brief rundown....

(I love this paragraph break)

Waaaayyyy back in the days of John Jay, our forums and shout feed were utterly dead. At this time, I thought of a way to get some more activity on all accounts-

Forum Points.

Now, some parties use in-forum scoring systems to judge activity. Little vague charts, showing a rough idea of how many posts you got.

Us?

Thanks to a f*** load of beta testing, point revising and deflation (Candor, if in WTP, is still in the T10 for activity because of the old system xD)..

We don't.

Rather, we use a specialized point system. Not only does this system mark your forum usage, it also marks your shout feed usage.

Maybe the only thing on awesomeness-par with our FPS

Thanks wholly to the efforts of Noa, John and Concept, FPS is back. FPS, when first implemented (all thanks to Concept for doing the work there) was a raving success. People started getting competitive, making stupid (but funny) posts, getting active..etc.

Personally, I'm sure something like that will happen again this time around.

Remember WTP- Activity is fun and rewarding.
So get involved 😁

Second main issue- Operation DODSA has begun.

Operation DODSA is probably one of the odder things WTP has done as of late. See, it combines 1 fact about eAmerica, with one fact about WTP.

Those facts ?

1. That eAmerica has a hard time getting its orders across to our newbs. Because of our vastness, the "2 clicking" army is difficult to control.
Point in case- Our 2 clickers can wipe Canada.

2. That WTP, being populist and wary of power, loves communication. Weekly newsletters, shouts, these articles..etc. You name it- We love it.

When combined, those facts basically sum up DODSA.

OP-DODSA (Operation- Department of Defense Spam Attack) involves PMing every "e-baby"* for the first 6 days of their life with a link to the DoD orders. Also, 100 health will be given to each one of them that comments something to the effect of "Voted", on these articles.

Now, this program isn't going to change the face of eAmerica forever. But, it will definitely help direct a little more damage in the right place.

Every little bit counts, right ? 😉

That about wraps up this article. Forum points will be up on the boards tom, and those voter referendums I mentioned awhile ago will be beginning soon.
