If I were PoTUS

If I were running for PoTUS...

I would form a coalition government between iNCi and the other half of eAmerica. Yup.

Here's why. Our new next door neighbors with the odd-smelling food aromas and bizzare late-night backyard bocce ball bashes play this game pretty damn well. What they have accomplished within our eborders is epic. If this were a monopoly game, they would be building hotels on Boardwalk and Park Place right now while the rest of eAmerica is scrambling to hang onto Mediterranean Ave.


This ain't your fathers' eAmerica any more...Get over it.

These eRep players formerly known as Turks have become the third largest party in the eRepublik world. They have taken over 1/5 of the eAmerican Congress and are surely hoping for more. They have transformed the 5 party system into a 2 party system (most of you know what I mean, the rest of you are about to find out.) They have carved out a vibrant online community that is active and cohesive. They have done all of this imaginatively, role playing for themselves a more clear identity than any other top 5 party has done.



Now admittedly they have done this in part by cheating. They've lost some of their top level people as multis. Playing more than one account simultaneously in this game is against the rules. If this were monopoly they would be the tophat and the thimble and count them both as one turn.


Triple dipping

Of course the top English-speaking parties have had their multis as well. Wrong is wrong. If you are running more than one citizen account, stop.

Indiscretions aside, eAmerica, right now, has more than one winning team within her borders. Imagine them uniting against a common foe!

Before I lose you to anger, consider this. iNCi has the same goal as every other eUS citizen: dominate the game of eRepublik.



Domination of a game. Blowing out the competition. That is our goal. And all of us have chosen the eUSA as our vehicle for domination of this game. Want to know why iNCi wanted to PTO us? You think it is because they hate us? Wrong. iNCi wants to use the eUSA to dominate eRepublik. Same as you. eUSA offers great strategic advantages in this game. iNCi could have PTO'd eLatvia a whole lot easier. But why bother?


Which one would you want?

The primary resistance to iNCi can be boiled down to, “they are not like us”. They publish articles in Turkish (for shame!) They troll our media. We troll their media. We are acting like real life Israel and Palestine fighting over Jerusalem. You think this is going anywhere?



If you hate iNCi because “this is America and we speak English here and you don't belong here,” and so on, you are projecting your real life Nationalism onto a game. Go ahead. But you are limiting your chances to dominate THIS game if you do.

You want the Lakers without Gasol? The Mariners without Ichiro? The Devils without Brodeur? Do you really want eUSA without one of our star players? What, you'd rather iNCi go hive in Indonesia?


We need a coalition government wherein;
world domination, not national domination is the goal;
the interests of eUSA take priority over the interests of the Parties;
strength joins with strength, not against it;
everyone has equal voice;
decorum is the standard protocol;
more fun IN REAL LIFE is the result.

That would be my platform if I were to run for PoTUS. Coalition Government.

Surely more would be needed. But ideally the rest would come from iNCi, USWP, Libertarian, UIP, Federalist, and 6th party leadership. I'd just love to see what eUSA could accomplish in this game if we helped iNCi make us stronger and they helped us relax a little.

Too bad I'm not running for PoTUS.

TURKISH EDITION:


Ben eUSA başkanı olsaydım, USWP, Libertarian, UIP, Federalistler ve İNCİ ile beraber bir koalisyon kurardım.

Hepimiz bu oyunu domine etmek istiyoruz.

Hepimiz bu hedefte başarılı olmak için eUSA kullanmak istiyoruz.



Kafamdaki koalisyon;
Hedefimiz ulusal egemenlik değil. Dünya egemenliği olduğu,
Ulusal çıkarlar, Partilerin kendi çıkarlarından daha önemli olduğu,
Gücün güc ile mücadele ettiği değil, güçlerin birleştiği,
Herkesin seviyeli olduğu sürece eşit söz hakkına sahip olduğu,
kısaca gerçek hayattan daha çok zevk aldığı bir platform yaratmak.

bizim inci'nin bizi daha güçlü kılması için yardım ettiğimiz ve onlarında bizim ferahımıza yardım ettiği, böylesi bir koalisyonu görmeyi gerçekten arzu ederdim.
