Nui04 Takes the Helm as USAF Operations Commander

With Dave Gulya stepping down to pursue Party-related duties, Secretary of Defense DMJohnston has appointed Nui04 to assume the position of USAF Ops Commander.

While the President holds the formal position of Commander-In-Chief, the Ops Com oversees the day-to-day function of all United States Armed Forces (USAF) branches.

Nui04 has been with the USAF over four years, mostly serving as Quartermaster. As Ops Com Nui04 intends to find innovative ways to add spark to the community of soldiers under his command, including running more competitive tournaments.

The President proudly bestows upon Commander Nui04 this unique Challenge Coin

Asked if there is any one thing that every soldier under his command should know by heart and never forget, Commander Nui04 growled, "Say 'what' again. Say 'what' again, I dare you! I double dare you, motherfu-ker, say ‘what’ one more Goddamn time!"


Top WTF Moments in eRep History (Part I)
Senior White House Correspondent Azazel Romanov

eRep has had a lot of crazy moments, and eUS history in particular is rich in a lot of WTF moments happening. Here’s a recap of some of the best WTF moments in eRep History, a lot of them to do with the eUS itself.
I’ll stick mostly to more recent history so people know what’s going on, but I’m old enough to remember some Glorious Failures (no pun intended). Be sure to read the linked articles for the full stories!
And now, in no particular order... full on face palm What the F...?!

: 1: Glorious Failure’s Rage Quit, or GF Day: Basically, a community moderator opened up his account-- passwords and all-- which resulted in the banning of multiple international players, including Admin himself. Presidents, Tanks, Gold Beasts, basically no one was safe. July 1st is celebrated as “GF Day”, the day virtually the whole world was banned. Well, at least the important people.

: 2: Free Area’s PTO of AMP: Best summarized in John Killah’s article . Free Area went deep undercover, gained the trust of the AMP, then turned and PTO’d them. This event enraged the nation and essentially sparked an all-out war with Serbia and widened the CoT-TWO conflict. This was most successful act of Serbian PTO in America, and one of the most consequential as well. Valiant Thor later PTO’d WTP in much the same manner, but that had nowhere near the impact of Free Area’s actions.

: 3: That time John Jay almost handed Ajay/RGR the Presidency: The Unity-era national primaries had decided that fingerguns would be the next President. John Jay didn’t like this and almost stayed on the ballot, which would have likely split the vote enough for AFA to win the presidency. This was probably one of the premiere Unity controversies that a lot of people don’t really know about.

: 4: Harrison Richardson / thisgenmedia, the President on two accounts: Detailed by HR himself, this man is so far the only known (I suppose) President elected on two different accounts under two different personas. After going out in a blaze of glory as thisgenmedia (aka Franco), HR comes back to be legitimate player and again win the Presidency. Just goes to show that you can steal the whole Treasury and the country will still re-elect you… but only if you’re Harrison Richardson.

: 5: That time we almost joined the same alliance as Serbia: Buried deep in the forum archives you can find Myles Robinson discussing how we almost joined Phoenix, the predecessor to ONE, TWO, and Asteria. This kind of thinking would be, well, unthinkable right now with our current mindset against Serbia. Imagine how much everything would be different right now had Woxan taken a different path.

If you all enjoyed this, we have a few more WTF Moments up our sleeves and we’ll do it again.


War Maps & Analysis
War Correspondent Alexander_Auctorias


Up in Scandinavia, we see Lithuania and Sweden working on each other. It used to be a multi-front war for Sweden, but Russia's has ended. Lithuania has the upper hand, currently, after winning four battles in a row. They should win Smaland, as well, reducing Sweden to just five regions. Estonia continues to give Finland trouble, winning eight of the last ten battles. They are about to attack, and Finland is down to five regions.
Slovenia declared war on Croatia but lost the initial and ensuing battle. Croatia is now about to attack. If memory serves, Croatia might have an NAP with Serbia, so she may be able to run right through Slovenia. I'm not sure how close the battles were, but Croatia should be able to dominate.
The Republic of China (Taiwan) is cleaning things up a bit in South Korea. I'm guessing either they reset determination or allowed SK to have Congress, but either way, this will be wrapped up as quickly as they can open the battles.


South of the border, our brothers in Mexico are getting beat up a bit. Colombia has won the first two battles in the war, and will win in NorthWest of Mexico. Mexico only has four regions left. It might be better to just let them wipe and RW back safely. We'll see what happens. Stay tuned.


North of the border, we will continue to help the UK wipe Canada off the map. The eUK has won nine of ten battles, and will win in Yukon. Canada is at eight regions, and I really doubt that the UK can wipe them, but its a really fun war.
Last but not least, The USA is getting back to work on its regions in Japan. This should allow us to get our trade route back to our holdings in North Korea.
Viva 100/100 bonuses. Kudos to the State and Defense Departments for their tireless work.
Keep clicking and Keep Shaking that A**.

Presidenting while RL business takes you him the road has its challenges and its perks.
”I am still awake. Kill me now. On the plus side I was upgraded to the mofo PRESIDENTIAL SUITE.”
