Great work!!

Maybe add the total avarage percentage to the sheet.

great idea done! 🙂

wow, how can one of the least active member be dCoC, bad choice congress! 😉

Goed initiatief! Vote

can't take credit, it's been done before. but thx 🙂

yes, well, you posted it. So credit is earned..

Exactly 😁

it's your job for crying out louth, stop kissing eachothers asses, you guys make me sick!!!

it's a nice little extra to inform the public, it's not part of the job description.

oh and i'm not from louth.

alex what do we have to do? If we are mudslapping it's wrong. If we are nice to eachother it's wrong. Don't know how you socialy think :/

Als we puur naar de partijen kijken springt Iron and Wine er wel in zeer positieve zin uit !!

lol, most people were/are on holiday 😉

Missed a few votes... I will pay more attention now, and go for the 100%!

WOW!! This is a JOKE!!!!!!!!!!

we NEED NEW elections Now... we do NOT have a congress that represents the people of this country..

thats why everyone keeps leaving!!!!

if you want to keep a congress.. lets have our own elections...
or atleast try to fight before elections to get a region...
we have yet to try and fight before elections even once in the last 4 months..

this really is a joke!! and does our CP get two votes as he is a congress member also.. this doesn't seem like a very balanced government... Why not include active new players... people are NOT Happy with the state of affairs in this country.. yet our tyrannical congress will not leave... self appointed tyranny should never be supported!!!! At the end of the day they are just a bunch of bullies!

If you all are going to strangle hold the government.. why offer new player incentives or tutoring if they are just going to leave?? New players want to get involved in a community that they can participate in.. not one where we have self appointed leaders that will not leave or give anyone else a chance to be voted into office...

No I just get one vote

Cool deal.. At Least your Vote is an elected one!! & as CP you should get one vote.. and the tie breaker if need be.. imo ..

instead of ranting here. check the forum (i've said this before). we are trying to come up with a good solution to use in times of occupation. however it's not that easy since even with our small congress we have many different ideas how it should be done.

Also quite recently a law was passed to make it possible to replace inactive congress members, some of them are even in this current congress.

perhaps you have an idea how it should be done? tell us on the forum!

Cool Odan.. i just think we should have a spot for new players interested in getting involved in congress.. and even hold our own elections to replace old Congress members.. if need be.. (for the most part they are all assets to eNL... we just need a way for new blood to get involved.. I'll be back on the forum at some point.. It frustrating because i can never find anything of use when i do visit..

I am/was trying to hold alternative elections, but I can't get enough support for it in congress 🙁

Your alternative doesn't include his party though.

Then his party should become bigger, only top5 are eligable ingame

Yeah but they were talking about including the non-5 parties. Something i suggested as well.

whether we include everyone (or just the top 5 parties) it doesn't really matter.. the more important issue is having another election.. giving new players a chance to get involved.. and providing a better representation of our current population..

as for just the top 5 parties.. thats a system i dont understand and wasn't a part of the game when i joined.. but if you all like it.. then roll with it... i personally will never again be a congress member.. Once was enough.. to many people try to include all the BS red tape governments have in real life.. and i play games to remove those rules and reg's.. they are overkill and a waste in my opinion.. so no worries... I have ZERO interest in being a part of any eCongress! so sleep easy boys!

"but I can't get enough support for it in congress 🙁" This is too funny.. couldn't resist.. but its not up to the old congress... and why would they support another election when they are already in office.. this is the TYRANNY i am referencing... this is a choice that belongs to the citizens of eNL.. not our outdated congress... REALLY FUNNY!!! of course you can't get support... to ironic.. thanks for the laugh of the day! and keep up the important work Rikw!!

We should just free a region to be honest and the then-elected congress should directly find a good solution for it, because this problem will arise again in the future, but since that isn't the case yet, there should be a group to make a solution and the current congress is the most logical one for it

it's not that the support for having the elections, it's the support for this or that type of election that lacks support.

IMO..... The Most meaningful time to fight in the next 30 days..

60-36 HOURS BEFORE THE NEXT CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION...

So save those bombs, eb's & zooka's for our Independence day... coming soon to a region near you!!

(either way we should hold an election... and someone should be hired to monitor our market.. $20/ Q7 weapons.. isn't fair to our young players... we need to make eNL more appealing.. not close more doors!!)
it feels like we dont even have a congress or cp... its like a ghost state.. in our biggest time of need 🙁 sad!

.... Really your market argument again??? Cause you also try to sell weapons for 9.99 ( http://i.imgur.com/7ztzCps.png ) on the market while they are allot cheaper to buy in China or Poland. So for that price you can still buy hem in China or Poland and make a nice profit while selling them to Dutch players bit hypocritical than to turn around and act like you really care about it.
The Dutch market is pretty much death, so it be better to advise new players to buy the weapons off foreign market or work in a commune rather than complain about the prices on Dutch market.

I do agree with the best time to fight, but fact still remains we don't stand a chance in hell winning a fight unless the polish are to busy fighting on other fronts, and unfortunately even than the fights in the Netherlands always seem to get a rather high priority.

Im not in china or poland (and i dont support the polish market, i see that as a traitors move) i put 50 up at no profit to help our Citizens.. they where at 18 or 20..

I suggested fixing the market.. not sure what your play is here.. ill take my weapons off the market.. although i have been thanked twice.. and asked to put some more up.....

why do you pretend to a citizen of this country.. and keep bashing me.. im not a hypocrite.. just trying to help???? WTF

There they are off the market.. i will never again try and help with overpriced goods... you keep supporting the poles... and shut your mouth with the useless over critical BS.... what is wrong with you.. i was only trying to help.. and am not making any money off the Dutch players... i actually give away quite a lot of $$ to other players...

please go back to china town.. and your Chinese markets.. we dont need your negativity here... wow.. what a chump!

and not only do the weapons i provide help the dutch players.. they also provide a tax base for the gov... and i dont make any $$ moving prices are expensive.. and coming off the missions weapons are pricey.. but what do you know.. hiding in china.. what a joke!!!

I do not pretend to be a citizen of this country, in essence i am a citizen of this country the only reason im in China is cause i run a commune for Dutch players from PG. And when players ask you to putt up weapons there you should advise them to buy weapons of cheaper foreign markets, simply so they can get more weapons for the same amount of money, so they can fight more. And you complaining about the fact the dutch market prices for weapons is high but your weapons are compared to the Polish, Chinese, USA or Serbian market rather expensive, i would sell my weapons on Dutch market way cheaper if the import tax wasn't so insanely high that i would be selling weapons at such a huge loss, would be much better to lower import tax so foreign people can sell there weapons on the dutch market for more normal prices.

Fosite is a polish traitor.. yep.. i said it.. he supports the polish market.. and does everything he can to convince the citizens of the Netherlands we can never beat the poles in a war.. even though we have on more than one occasions since i have been here.. If the poles aren't hiring this propaganda chump from china.. they should!!!

I will no longer post anything on the market.. i dont play this game to get shit for trying to help.. i am rich in eLife and dont need any more $$ .. just like i dont need any more negativity or insults.. this hole situation is becoming a very unpleasant experience... So many other country offer an eplayer so much more.. i am obviously here in the Netherlands for a reason... i am trying to help!!!! so back off China boy!

send them to a real Citizen.. easy to avoid taxes.. come on.. you can do better than that.. instead you bash real Citizens trying to help... done wasting time with china boy.. bye now!

Wow you take criticism really well don't you, and again only reason that im in China is cause i do Commune work as i have told you in the past, acting like im there for cheap prices and line my own pocket is complete bullshit, plus i sacrifice gaining TP medals for it as result so if anything im sacrificing things by having a Chinese CS something you have been explained in the past as well. At least i moved despite than losing the ability for easy TP medals and the gold that comes with it, so 10 Dutch players can get free weapons, what do you sacrifice?

And than telling me i should keep my mouth shut yea that is real democratic of you, say what you want but if it is something you don't like i should keep my mouth shut.

So let me get this straight if you where to be president you would revoke all the special statuses of Commune owners cause they are in a foreign country? Forcing them to go back to the Netherlands and there by effectively denying allot of players access to free weapons. Yea that sounds truly patriotic of you.
And being stuck up on the "well at least i sell them cheaper as others so worse-ship me for that crap"get of your high horse, your prices are still high, new players are better served by getting the good advise to buy there weapons of a cheaper market, that doesn't make them Traitors as you putt it, it makes it so they can fight harder which is only a good thing, the fact that a little bit of money than ends up in a foreign countries treasury instead of ours doesn't make it a treasonous act.

Wow Nomadicracer is childish and in denial about anything reasonable you say Fosite o_O So glad now that he isn't CP... Let me get this right he would ruin the commune system cause he wouldnt understand it? Just Wow xD

GPN has a lower state because we voted "None" during the CoC election. We did not agree with the choices for CoC.

that's true, however you were warned those votes wouldn't count. simply creating an option and voting on it isn't an option 😉

besides it should be changed before the next election vote.

Warned that because we didn't agree with something our votes would not count. I'll let anyone who actually reads this article think about what that means : )

That's up to the reader. But to explain it simply. the law didn't allow a None option. many GPN members choose too add that option. they where warned they should change it or their vote would not count.

And as far as I know all the CM's want the option 'None'. So we are already busy with changing that law. And it's no excuse for a bit lower score. You still did better then UNP with the highest and also the lowest person.

this is so silly.. and why i will never be a part of congress.. following the exact letter of the law doesn't work in real life or elife... its ridiculous! thats why most countries have court rooms and judges... obviously voting to abstain.. is an option all governments exercise... and isn't one of neglect or non participation.. that fact that its actually a thread here.. just reinforces why i would never want to be a part of such a rigid legal system... why not make our state more efficient that our real life counter parts that have a zillion more issues to deal with than the eNL's...

SIMPLIFY.... i bet we have more laws that active citizens.... enough said!

Good stuff!

lol at the they where warned part! It's obvious that the whole forum is in the hands of I&W. imho that's not really democratic! Why not start a whole new forum from scratch, and have all parties get a say in it? That way many people would go to visit the forum.

Nee, dit klopt niet. Het hele forum is echt niet in handen van I en W. Wij zijn wel erg actief ja, maar dat is toch niet verkeerd? Ook anderen kunnen actief zijn, als ze dat willen..

het is niet echt democratisch dat het hele forum in I&W handen is. Stel dat het in handen van GN was, jij zou als een der eersten moord en brand schreeuwen. Hier worden elkaar baantjes toegespeeld. 😛

daar zeg je een heel goed ding "als ze willen" , maar aangezien t forum alleen een polariserende werking heeft op de NL gemeenschap lijkt het erop dat spelers geen trek hebben daar te komen.
Verder wordt het ook opgedrongen door spelers om het forum te bezoeken en daar te komen spelen omdat ze ander geen aanwinst schijnen te zijn als ze dat niet willen.....
Het "forum zou een uitbreiding "kunnen " zijn , maar dat is geen absoluut iets ...... misschien wel voor sommige onder ons maar nooit voor iedereen.
En als regering moet je er dus wel voor "iedereen" zijn en niet alleen voor een kleine selecte groep die op deze manier zo nadrukkelijk zn stempel op t spel probeert te drukken dat het een negatieve invloed heeft op het werkelijke spel.

Hoe is het mogelijk dat mensen die de taak van congreslid op zich hebben genomen meer dan een kwart van de tijd niets van zich laten horen bij verkiezingen? Is dat niet een signaal dat de huidige formatie niet meer functioneert?
En het voelt niet echt natuurlijk om een volksvertegenwoordiging maar te laten zitten ten tijden van bezetting. Het zit hem eigenlijk al in het woord zelf. Ik word nu vertegenwoordigd door een formatie die zich heeft gevormd ver voordat ik begon te spelen. Ik heb het op het forum is doorgekeken en het leverde een aardige discussie op over hoe je nu een nieuw congres kunt vormen, maar is het nu werkelijk zo moeilijk om een verkiezing te simuleren die hetzelfde doet als die ingame?

Daarnaast, is een congres eigenlijk wel nodig als je geen land bezit? Dingen levend houden kan goed zijn voor de moraal maar als ik dit artikel lees ziet het er meer uit als een poppenkast gezien de onderwerpen waarover gestemd kon worden. Alles ging namelijk over het congres zelf met uitzondering van de motie tegen vS VII. Dat laatste is ook wel op te vangen door constructieve oppositie te voeren.
