Cooke4444 for CP (for real this time)

Day 1,673, 10:43 Published in Belgium Belgium by Cooke4444
So now for real this time. I'm going for CP... Well, if I get chosen by the HOPE-members. But here is what you can expect in a short version. Longer versions will come later.

1. Why would HE do that?

To make it easy to rea😛

- I've got time now. Holidays you know 😉
- To make debates more concentrate on the SUBJECT, not on personal vendetta's
- To increase fun in eRep
- To show that "it could have been better", is also a good evaluation of a CP term 😉
- To increase my and eBelgian foreign contacts

2. Points of view

- Neutrality: keep it. It saves us from being conquered all the time and if we keep good contacts with other nations, we will always get supported if some other country wants to attack us.

- Training War: in favor, but only if the countries around us are stable theirselves. A short TW with Holland could be fun again, but as they have minor problems (aka. conquered by Poland) it seems unlikely atm.

- Citizen programs: in favor, not to say: psyched about it. It stimulates citizens to come on forum and it's not damaging the state treasury. Also, young citizens can get a lot of support from this.

- Economy: see later.

- Military: Keep supporting the BNA, the official eBelgian army. Also the para's: they have to be constant re-evaluated. Not to annoy them, just so we can exactly see the damage, supplies. Criticism is good, it keeps you on guard 😉.

- Foreign affairs: Keep up-to-date with other countries, and personally contact the CP's, as this increases trust and in case of a neutral country: support.

- FUN: see later

- Immigration: as eBelgium is a small country, we have to be ready against PTO-attempts. Guidelines in immigration could be very usefull here. Also if people don't like to come on forum: contact me or the person(s) for immigration before accepting request.


3. FUN

My favorite 😉 Having fun is, after all, the point of eRep according to me. What would this be without a laugh, satire here and there?

I will keep on posting articles, though there will be also a minister of FUN. Also, I will retake the eBelgian championship track cycling and "the great war" as they have been on hold due to RL.

Also I want to stimulate the writing of articles! How and when will be explained in a later article.


4. Why NOT?

Criticism is good, bashing is not. You have to know your own weaknesses, and I'm not scared to admit them:

- Lack of economical knowledge
- Too much fun? 😉
- Not active during night (GMT+1 time) (In need to sleep some point) 😉
- Some minor lack of game mechanics.

How to compensate this? By GOOD MINISTERS! I won't say names...yet, but in my mind I have a few ready. Appointments are also welcome, but I will announce that in another article.


5. For now...

What to expect now?

- More articles, more in-depth
- IT IS NOT CERTAIN I'M GOING BE IN THE RACE FOR CP! HOPE will decide CP candidate after congress elections
- Vote me in congress 😉

Feel free to ask questions in PM or in the comments!


6. If you're not convince😛

For the guys:


For the girls: (no idea if this is good)
