De PublicaDivitiae (Sorry my Latin is a little rusty)
I was very interested to see via the Immortal (it seems) Connor MacLeod the Ian Keers article in eUK regarding a new Commonwealth. Of course I used to know Ian Keers well some years ago (I came from eUK) and he is a reasonable and rational man, although deluded in his socialist idealism. His contention and mine extend to real life British politics but I never had any trouble working with him in the eworld and I believe his idea deserves some consideration.
I would very much hope our current MoFa is already is already sounding people out in this regard. If not he/she should be.
So what would a Commonwealth alliance look like? eUK presumably... eCanada, eAustralia and eNew Zealand? Possibly eSouth Africa. Well I am all for helping liberate eAus and eNew Zealand but does our CoT membership preclude this? I would also include in 'Commonwealth' eIreland and eUSA as well as open it up completely non Anglophone or traditional Commonwealth nations. For us Brolliance geographically must come first. eUSA must be saved or we will be re-occupied. Don't kid yourself.
So here is my offer to eUK: We too shall forget the wrongs done to us and welcome you home (for it was you that deserted us) IF you help defend eUSA as a show of good faith and accept Brolliance as part of a Commonwealth agreement. In the meantime we should work together to better co-ordinate our military strikes at a renewed Brolliance HQ where eUK will be welcome.
On Congressional Elections
Ladies and Gentlemen for the first time in a while we have the chance to elect a nearly full Congress. Do not vote for those who are after 5 gold. Do not vote for those who will propose an impeachment for a laugh. Do not vote for those who you don't know or haven't told you what they think. Do NOT alow your vote to be bought, the cost of which we know all too well. The liberty of eCanada depends on your honest view... it is the gold on which the community runs. If in doubt you're pretty safe voting CPF...

your view of Commonwealth is naive and unattainable. eUK leaving TWO and fighting for eUSA just because you ask them to ha.
Also your grasp of congress elections seems to be dated....
unless your grouping a whole party with your description of who not to vote for lol
you're
I've mailed Keers.
"I've mailed Keers."
...You know he's the leader of TWO, right?
shhhhhh dont argue, just nod and say good job
"So here is my offer to eUK: We too shall forget the wrongs done to us and welcome you home"
Who's "we"?
Our survival.
What I mean is, what group are you referring to? "We" the CPF? "We" the canadians? "We" the supporters of this commonwealth?...
also, I think people vote for parties and not for people. at least that what I gather from the election page (http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Congress_elections) is that it's party presidents who choose who to campaign
But good parties listen to their members and recognize talent 🙂
true. but it seems awfully arbitrary for PPs. I don't like individual empowerment 🙁
They use the term commonwealth to make us feel all warm fuzzy over what they really want. Us to join ACT/TWO.
ACT/TWO is the first alliance that has embraced the fact that all nations wish to participate in the game but is brutally honest about larger nations being better suited to participate in the military aspect of the game.
If there was a Commonwealth Alliance that had a sub-group of the top military nations in the country, say the G4, then I would be interested. The fighting nations would form the G4 and they would get the "play" the military game. The rest of the members of the Commonwealth would basically be Non-Aggressive and would support the big guys via MPPs. As a nation of less than 2,000 citizens, I wouldn't expect eCanada to have an equal say but they should expect their alliance to preserve their congress in exchange for MPP loyalty. Pretty basic stuff.
I believe that TWO/ACT works this way, and aside from the fact I have an emotional disdain for the members of the alliance, I like the way the alliance is structured and organized.
Something needs to happen to fix the imbalances in the game. Having one super alliance is pointless for a war game. It is like the last turn in risk, is there really any point rolling the dice anymore when the outcome is obvious?
@ED
It is the responsibility of the players to come up with the solution to the superalliance issue. Ever since EDEN fractured splintered into EDEN/Terra/CoT, there hasn't been a united front to oppose the "Evil Empire"
Hopefully CoT is the solution but my money is on an option that does not exist yet.
emotions cant always be the ruder of the ship.
Its not entirely true about smaller members Addy, they supported Belarus in there Scandinavian romp and they support smaller nations in some of there expansions
Naturally they must return to us and not vice versa. I rejected Peace GC long ago and reject their heirs today.
Though I hear you sentiments on ACT/TWO, it would be closed minded and foolish to not at least consider all our options. This is a game and we need or be willing to play. I am not a lover of any incarnation of PEACE GC but I am also not so naive as to not think that we can close our eyes and doors without considering what is being offered.
I know you're not naive either ED, you and I go a way back in this game and I have come to know you as a very level player. I respect your position and I suspect you would consider other options if a case for them could be made.
If I was not fool, would I still be playing?
SaraDroz is an idiot of EPiC proportions
What's a thief that steals knowing he will be caught?
Hero and Patriot...... See You Next Tuesday, Sara.....
PEACE GC and Phoenix of old aren't really the same as TWO/ACT now. If you look at the alliances you will see many countries who have switched sides.
For the record, I am against the Commonwealth. As Ian states in his article, the other "commonwealth" nations are already essentially aligned together, all but eCanada. This is a zero win situation for us, basically. What do we gain from joining it? They won't fight against Spain because they're allied to Spain! All they get is eCanadians killing our by then former bros.
And Australia and NZ chose their path with TWO so fight for Macedonia against them since Macedonia is in CoT with us. Let me tell you that when eCanada tried our airstrike two months ago, Australia was a big hitter against us. I share no sympathy to them anymore since then.
Hence my stipulations.
huh
My roleplay is intentionally silly. What's the excuse here?
Talking about betrayal is sooo childish. Get connected to reality Sara. I made the channel for two reasons. One - because now the UK, NZ and Aus are all in TWO we have the opportunity to work together more closely. Secondly to make somewhere for English language speakers to hang out. Nobody I going to leave TWO, and the chance of allying the USA is zero.
PS. you'd think after nearly five years you'd learn how to spell my name!
Pps. This deluded socialist is probably one of the richest people in this game.
