Congressional Candidacy Declaration - Tyler F. Durden
eFight Club
Ladies and Germs,
Whatever name or defining characteristic you choose to be known as,
there is one thing that ties all of our interests together - eCanada.
A strong, healthy eCanada is key to our constant growth economically,
militarily and politically.
In times like these, one needs to turn inwards, unto itself.
One needs to determine what it is that we really want - as eCanadians.
We are one voice, from many.
What will our voice say?
It is no secret that I support our party leader, Bruck. I support the principles of
the Canadian Empire Party.
I have always endeavoured to be as forthcoming as possible;
I tell it how it is - in my eyes, in my own voice.
I am not a war hero. I am not a business tycoon. I am not a bankster.
I am a Corporal. I enjoy clicking the 'fight' button.
I, Tyler F. Durden take this opportunity to formally declare my candidacy
for the eCanadian Congress for British Columbia.
While eCanada will always take priority in all decisions in which my judgement shall have bearing upon, British Columbia is my home - It is the eCanadian gateway to the Pacific.
It is my intention to work toward the deployment of a High Quality Defence System in BC.
The PEACE Alliance has wrapped it's tentacles all the way into the Pacific Ocean. Europe is shattered. eRomania, who can say today what that country will look like in a week. Noone.
It is my firm belief that eCanada's western shores should be able to resist any attack of any size.
It is my vision to deploy High Quality DS' from coast to coast to coast.
The best offence is a good defense.
With Ralph de Ver as my Congressional Running Mate, together we look forward to the future.
For Party. For Country.
Now, get off of my porch.
Tyler F. Durden

wootah! I'm the first subscriber
Hey, I thought I'd give you a few friendly suggestions:
So apart from a high q defense.... what else u got planned?
Say a new law would be proposed to change the important taxes on grain a little higher, what would you do?
Say the government would like to donate more money to another government institution of some kind, what would you vote?
Yes i know its pretty obvious that you would vote YES to a higher q def system for B.C., the question is though, why?
Who will attack Canada? When? Is a defense system needed so badly?
OR maybe a high q hospital may reap more benefits? Maybe it could increase wellness, and help the economy?
If your gonna run for congress, give your "supporters" a better idea of what you stand for. And give some reasons too.
"Now, get off of my porch." - thats no way to treat your "supporters", show them a little more respect. Just a suggestion...
"A strong, healthy eCanada is key to our constant growth economically,militarily and politically." - please define what a "strong and healthy Canada" means in your opinion. Cause it seems to me you were a just a little too vague on the details...
Oh and I'm glad its ur "firm belief" that Canada will resist any attacks, I can definitely sleep safer now.
And I'm thrilled you announced your great "candidacy", just make sure you tell us ur plan too. Or were you too busy takin' names and breakin' hearts? I say you should stop throwin ur hat around, and start tellin ur "supporters" some hard facts, or you ain't goin too far.
But like I said, these are just some friendly suggestions...
Good luck cowboy.
So Octavian_F, you finally decided to post publicly in conversation with me.
I remember when you cold-called me with your ebank "CIBC"
pitch about takin' my gold. I told you "No thanks, I'm good".
You continued to try and sell me. I told you to "fuk off".
You came back and bitched like a whiny 13 year old, quickly filling up my pm box. For the first time since I started this game, I had to start clearing out messages. On and on you bitched.
So I posted a comment in the Forums - Economy section about "Aggressive eBanks".
( below link )
http://www.erepublik.com/en/forum/topic/96931/aggressive-banks/1" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/forum/topic/[..]ks/1
You read it. A whole lotta other people read it too.
You also read about the eRepublik Administrators removing several Organization Accounts for suspicious activity in regard to gold.
You also read the comments posted there. All in agreement.
Still you pm'd me.
Did you post a comment in defense for yourself in the forums?
No.
You did not.
I even had your name in there - "Octavian_F" which is why you unsheathed your nails and started scratching and hissing. I had two cuts on my forearm for a week. Really, they wouldn't stop bleeding for days.
You are old novelty to me.
I don't want your support.
You're too pale.
Now get off my porch, John Wayne with no tan.
Hehe, if you made those comments I sent you public, everyone would have see what a fool I made out of you.
In fact, I still have em, wanna make em public? Haha I would really enjoy that...hahahahaha
I see you haven't let down your arrogant pose, now I see your obsessed with Brad Pitt.
Anyways apart from your useless attack on my bank, you haven't answered any of my questions. None.
Tyler F. Durden, I do not believe you are fit to run for congress. Period.
An arrogant cowboy like you isn't fit to help run a country who is under threat from the new PEACE attacks.
You can leave our personal squabbles aside, and I suggest you answer the questions I gave you. Or is your head too full of blind ego to think properly?
Think cowboy. Think hard.
Oh yea, and this is the first time I read your post on "aggressive banks"... i never even knew it existed..
But now that you've kindly shown it to me, I made a few comments here and there, maybe you wanna go check em out?
I have no idea how you were so sure that I "saw your posts", and that i "got angry from it". Stop making stuff up. It makes you look even worse.
But hey lets not get carried away here, this is about you running for congress, and I suggest you come up with some good answers and reasons or you don't stand much of a chance.
Think cowboy. Think hard.
Sadly, this article only receive 6 votes and even if someone read it, I doubt they came back to follow up on the comments.
When I compile last week's list of articles for the index, this will definitely be added with special annotation. Highly interesting and, I am ashamed to admit, entertaining.
Octavian_F!
You may already be a winner!
You have just made Latest News!

A Fascist Socialist?
That is a contradiction in terms.
You say nothing about race, yet race is a core element in defining Nationalist political policy. Nationalism is all about race.
Not the kind of country eCanada is. Nationalist should be substituted with "Statist". The interests of the State taking precidence over all other matters.
Also, such states, historically are single party states. Do you mean to say then that you intend to abolish all other eCanadian political parties once you attain power?
Besides the fact that Ludwig von Mises successfully refuted the ability of Socialism (as he defined it to be, which has not been taken issue with by his peers, in his book: "On Socialism") to maintain economic vitality over an extended period of time due to the fact that Adam Smith's 'Division of Labour' (Wealth of Nations) could not be adhered to within the tenets of Socialism.
Especially not with a resource based economy.
Socialism has failed in every state which has adopted it.
Capitalism most closely mirrors the laws of nature -
natural selection.
The most adaptive to change survive. Might is right.
We are only equal under the law.
And even then, true liberty comes only from knowledge of what conduct one may employ in his pursuits within the law.
Socialism has not failed. Communism has failed. RL Canada is EXTREMELY socialist. And in fact the nations ranked as "best places to live" are nations such as Denmark. Denmark's oil is controlled by the state, and the state issues checks to each citizen each year as a dividend of the profits raised by the national oil company. Please tell me how that is failure.
Ever heard of a socialist democratic state? Well your living in one.
And remember this is not RL. And in eRep you can't have dictatorships. Its impossible. You can have TO's, but thats different, thats like buying out votes. You can steal votes, but you cant have "undisputed" power. The way the game was designed, its a democracy no matter how you put it, and you can't buy votes forever.
And even if you are a dictator... wuts the worst you can do? Set high taxes? lol
Look at the eUSA. The biggest party in the eWorld is the United States Worker's Party. It doesn't get much more communist than that.
Now i know that a fascist socialist is a contradiction of terms, but what I mean to say is that I am a strong Nationalist (or "statist", w.e.), and I believe in greater government control. Now I also believe that eRep nations are made by their people (who are the economy, army, tax payers, etc), and in order to have a strong nation, you must have "strong citizens". I have a few socialist tenancies, but thats just because I believe we need to make this game fun for all. Other than that I am a fascist.
That is why I joined the CEP. Because I want Canada to become an unstoppable Empire (like Romania was). Look at CEP's political view, its authoritative. And I agree.
Always remmeber, this is not RL. Imagine how fun this game will be when Canada will be in the center of attention, with a robust army, a powerful economy, and runnin over those cheating PEACE dogs. Thats my vision for this nation, a powerful, ambitious Canadian Empire.
