A Big Thank You, Some Stats and Worrying News

21 Day 767, 04:17 Ireland
Congress for Dec 2009

I would like to start by saying Go raibh maith agat do na daoine a vótáil dom. (Thank you to the people who voted for me).

Now I would like to go on and welcome everybody, young and old, man or woman and congresspeople or not congresspeople to ask me any questions they may have about the Dáil. Whether it be about the running of the Dáil, how to get into the Dáil or how you can get involved in the Dáil without being a congressperson. You can also ask me to take a look at any proposals that you would like to see go through the Dáil.

Congress Dec 2009 Stats

The IFP and ISD took 10 seats each.
The Independants took 8 seats.
The IUP and Saoirse took 6 seats each.

There were some interesting results which could only have happened on Christmas Day. It seems santa was kind to the IFP and ISD while the IUP got a sack of coal.

Now onto the worrying news about some of our current congress members. I am yet again very disappointed to see this happen yet again. We have people who got into the Dáil who contributed sweet f*** all last term. Party Presidents your Parties names will also be tarnished by these members if they do not perform their congressional duties properly. I see no need to go easy on any of the people featured on my shame list as if they are unable to perform their congressional duties they should not have run for a consecutive term. Without further a do

The Shame List is:

Arieopac_a
Longbaugh
oqpniaczek

The people listed above missed at least 8 out of 9 votes up to the 21/12. I am happy to see that the list has fallen from 4 last term to only 3 this term. Things can only keep getting better for us Ireland. Now lets get together and make Ireland the best we can. It would seem to me that 2 of the above people are only in it for the Gold. That is wrong, selfish and extremely greedy. As it is Christmas time I will however not go so hard on these people or anybody else just yet.

Once again I would like to thank everybody who voted for me.

@ Kavrocks Party presidents can't move people out of the regions - if they want to run, they can. And if someone has some RL friends in the game, they can get elected everytime, with a few votes. It's an unfortunate reality.

Yeah, Christmas Day wasn't kind to the IUP. Why? Because our members have RLs!! :p

No, only joking and congrats and commiserations.

Good article and congrats on getting elected.

I think you might be aware of the situation with Longbaugh. He seems to only consider in-game votes to be important.

You seem to have a personal gruge againist Longbaugh so I'll disregard from your biased "Shame" list.

He's active and learned about our governmental system from the last term .

In future I'd advise you in future to not judge someone at a start of term because the T.D Performance Tracker should tell that story itself

Pip, I'm disappointed that you said that. All I have against Longbaugh is to do with his needless insults at me for pointing out he is a blatant lier and claims our forums are a joke and anything on there doesn't matter. I messaged loads of people last round about taking part in our forums everybody who replied except Longbaugh was all apologies and vowed to change their ways while Longbaugh just started attacking me and saying our forums are a joke and don't matter.

JohnSmith I too have messaged him and got nothing back.

Digits However they should be getting on to their members to vote on the forums at the least it only takes a max of 10 mins per day.

I am not surprised about Longbaugh at all...

There is an obvious reason he is here, to be the voice/arm of the UK in our government.

Excuse me, but you didn't just include me in the list... you insulted me in parentheses (as you did pdiddy).

My response was quite cordial. I just happened to note your inclusion of said insult and mentioned that I'd make sure not to forget it.

And, you're pretty bad at keeping score, Kavrocks. I missed 4 votes and intentionally skipped the USA treaty vote because I didn't want to give shameful pols like you a reason to get into a mudslinging argument.

Pull the stick out of your butt and you might be able to walk upright.

Also, it's spelled L-I-A-R and you are the one, not me. I've actually never lied about one thing since I've been playing eRepublik. Not one thing.

Listen to Pip, he has considerable more experience at this game than you or I... and I have considerable more experience than you.

Lol Longbaugh. Take a look at Dash's Performance Tracker, you missed 7 votes and if you do not want to cast a vote you have to say you Abstain from the vote so don't give us any of that crap. You keep aiming your insults at me because I'm highlighting the truth about you instead of spending your time correcting what is being highlighted. You can talk as much shite as you want it will get you no where. The proof of what I've said is written in black and white.

Seven votes? You said in this very article that I had missed 8 votes. Which is it Kav, SEVEN or EIGHT?

With that said, two of the nine votes were put forth by me. In addition to those two, I also voted YES on Dash's "Active Status" amendment and Dub's last proposal. That's four out of nine.

How dare you attack me personally in your piddly newspaper when over in mine I make a routine of publishing my eRep voting record. That's leaps and bounds more than 98% of congressman do in this game... and that 98% includes YOU Kavrocks.

Also, to clarify the facts regarding baseless rumors:

1. I have absolutely zero connections (formal or informal) with the UK government.

2. This last election happened to be the very first in which I ran and did not proposition or PM anyone to vote for me.

You have nothing Kavrocks... except Dash's clearly-dubious "tracker."

Kavrocks Day 768, 02:09

Wow Longbaugh I made a mistake and wrote 7 instead of 8 it just shows how petty you are. Your gaining nothing by this except showing us how bad of a person you actually are. I did not attack you personally you just seem to have a persecution complex against me for pointing out the truth about you. Learn to read and take on board what's said. I've said the same things to you at least 3 times which still hold but your too ignorant and vain to take them on board and instead just resort to attacking me. My voting record is clear to see on the forums so there is no need for me to post such an article like yours which could be filled with lies with no way of veryifying anything.

And I did not say you have anything to do with the UK or anything about you running in previous elections. Stop taking other people's bad opinions about you and pretending I said them just to attack me.

Get a life and stop acting like such an idiot.

@ Kavrocks

The TD who makes 9/9 votes tells ME to get a life. I guess "irony" isn't in the Gaelic dictionary.

For such a congressional priss as yourself, one would think the difference between 7 and 8 is HUGE. I suppose that congressional professionalism is only relevant when you're NOT dealing with personal enemies; eh, Kavrocks?

It's curious how you avoided my accusation that Dash's "tracker" isn't accurate. Surely such a mathematical whiz as yourself could see that I proposed at least 2 of the 9 amendments... which means that I voted on at least 2... which means you were retardedly-wrong in your stupid assessments. Though, you still tried to play yourself off as a competent Dail obesrvant. You're just a n00b, plain and simple.

Also, don't pretend that you and that lowlife Memphis haven't been PM'ing each other about me. You want Longbaugh, but you cannot have him. Talk to Grainne...

Lol Longbaugh. You may have proposed 2 of them but 1 of them was after Dash's tracker was published and you did not vote in them unlike everybody else who votes in the proposals that they put up. So Dash's tracker is not wrong your just trying to fudge the facts to help yourself out of the huge hole you've dug for yourself.

For your information it takes less than 10 minutes to vote. So is 90 minutes out of a whole week a lot? Clearly not for somebody with a brain that can comprehend big numbers unlike you.

Longbaugh I would have nothing against you if you didn't keep attacking me for pointing out the facts. How many times do I have to tell you this before it sinks it?

I take it you will never stop making yourself look like such a fool and a prick. Some people just can not be helped.

Now your making up conspiracy theories. I guess we have to add paranoia to your long list of deficiency's. Lol I do not want Longbaugh nobody does and nobody ever will.

Hmm, how little you know of him.
He's well-loved, and much listened to.
Hmmm.
