Because

This entry into Jude's Journal provided by the Political Elite... Making People Leave the Game since V1.
Because the world is round... it turns me on...
I have been around this game for awhile now, and if there is one thing I have learned, it's that the New World is definitely cylindrical. Time after time, we do the same thing, over and over. The names change, but the results are ALWAYS the same
The latest is the whole day yesterday.
Because the Sky is Blue... It makes me sad...
According to the eRepublik wiki, a "Political Takeover (coup) - a highly organized group from a densely occupied country moves into a seperate country and gets political power of said country..."
So how can an outstanding, well-known and well-respected eAmerican running for Party President be deemed a PTO? Tell me how this man warrants the involvement of the head of the eUSA's counter-PTO unit, and sniper votes from at least two other parties?
Because, as he put it: "America is Dying. Only You Can Save It".
PTOs are, in fact, real; but this was no PTO. It reminds me of the time that I "revived" the United States Workers Party from that monstrosity that it had become when it merged with AAP and the Dem-Reps. That was also called a PTO by the CIA and other parties. I know for sure that the UIP sent snipers against me in that party presidential election, and I have heard rumors that the CIA did as
as well. Fortunately, I had people, gold, ads, and tons of propaganda behind me and the USWP was reborn.
Because the wind is high... it blows my mind...
We Owe Allegiance To No Crown
Ah! But you do.
There is an entire" game beyond the game" world that clearly determines the path of government, military, and economic policy. The" political elite" is real. I have been a part of it since my second month in the game.
What bothers me is that the openess of this group has gotten less and less as time goes on. I personally feel that welcoming new people into the" metagame" is the lifeblood of the game as a whole. But when people are even already well-established behind the scenes, who have, like you, wanted a change in the status quo? Why not offer him an actual opportunity to succeed? Why not give someone a chance to do something? Why not see if maybe there is an alternative? Are you that sure of yourself that your opinion is the only one that matters?
It especially upsets me that I hear the rumors of USWP involvement in sniper voters, considering the
A PTO is when Indonesians or Ajay runs for party president, not SamWystan.
Why am I back? Because crap like this is killing the game.

Pertamax!
Voted because you know the "actual" definition of a PTO
I voted already.
Good read Jude! voted
Sam had vowed to not do anything as PP, and allow whoever wanted to run to run for congress. That is a security threat, just as much as Ajay. It was not til midday on election day that he said he would not quit in the event of winning, by that point, the ball was rolling.
Don't get me wrong, I like Sam, but it was clear that it was a problem.
Read my latest article on the full story regarding Sam, found here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/libertarian-party-president-election-timeline-1641604/1/20 I'm done commenting the same exact thing over and over in regards to that ordeal. Good come-back article, Jude.
Agreed.
Good to see Jude back and writing good articles like this one again.

Nice to see you writing again Jude, now find something much more... I dunno, Jude-ish to write about 😉
Respected and well known?? I had never even heard of him. Top 5 parties are crucial to election security.
good to read you again, Jude..
whether or not that Sam fella was right, wrong or sideways, his candidacy was not a PTO. that phrase has been abused, turned into the cry of "witch!" and all the little villagers run to burn anyone who's been labeled so.
but, I suppose.. there's gonna be controversy and scandal everywhere.

hey look, elites!
"I had never even heard of him." -- really? Doesn't that kind of prove Jude's point?
make it betta...
good to see you after so long 🙂
The good thing about elitism is that their ranks slowly thin. In a democracy (or whatever they try to mutate democracy into), thin ranks equate to loss of power.
I really don't believe that elitism exists in eRep, though. It's more like junior high cliques trying to see who can get more people to the mall on a Friday night.

Good article Jude, voted.
Voted hard. For a while I've felt the same things about this "meta-game." But it hasn't changed.
