Love on the Rocks; An Abuse of Trust.

106 Day 729, 13:26 United Kingdom



Good Evening!

Over the past day some pretty interesting things have been happening in the eUK. The Commanding Officer of the Special Forces hijacked all the companies and funds that were used by the troops in the Special forces. Being in charge, Widdows9000 was trusted with managing the companies and so had access to the organisations used by the SF.

Next, he opened a thread in the General section of the eUK forums, stating;

" Hello there. I have recently raided the Ministry of Defence and its the 6 military orgs. If you search 'widds' in game you will see my 6 orgs that currently hold all the military companies.

Here is a list of what I have stolen:

70 gold
1788.35 GBP
0.36 EEK
0.14 ESP
41.63 FRF
48.51 HUF
29.31 IDR
0.26 RON

5 q3 companies
2 q1 companies
1 q2 company

577 q3 weps
4 q1 weps
1911 iron

19 market licenses

I know it's not that impressive but still will cost a bit to get those companies all back up to where they were. My terms are simple, attack the eUSA, and you get everything back.

No negotiations or I give it all to the eUSA. You have 24 hours from this post.
If by 11 o clock British time you have not attacked eUSA the demand goes up to attacking eSweden and eUSA. I don't care what region just push the button Woldy.

Lord widdows9000 MBE, VC
RRS wannabee
"


However, The eUK will not negotiate with thieves, attention seekers, or terrorists.

People who make such demands after listening to the views of a small group of individuals rather than approaching people diplomatically are much less likely to achieve what they set out too. Furthermore, the select few should not try to force their views on the citizens of the eUK.

We are not closed minded when it comes to attacking the USA, we know that we have to plan carefully and time things right. Unfortunately at the time these demands were made, the timing was not right. There is a lot going on in the international scene that makes an attack on the USA non-sensical. We understand the reasons behind attacking the USA are sound, but I cannot emphasise enough that right now, doing so would simply be mad, we wouldn't win and would only serve to put us at a disadvantage by activiting all of their MPP's. It is likely if it is ever done, it shall be part of a larger plan - wether it be devised to take regions or simply create activity.

In other words, When the USA is attacked, it will be on our own terms.

It is of my understanding that the eUK has not been involved in any direct battles, so for training and healing purposes we shall aim to open battles meaning you can use your hospitals, for now you can fight green.

It will not however, be long until we are involved in direct and exciting battles, and until then I advise joining the navy, where you will be moved around to fight for our allies overseas.

Widdows has been removed as Commanding Officer and is in the process of losing his Lordship.


Mr Woldy,
Prime Minister of the eUK.

I'm prepared to follow in whatever course the UK leadership wishes to follow. Attack US, don't attack US... I'm not prepared to do so because an ex-member of the house of lords embezzled a bunch of money, then promised to return the money if we declared on someone.

Time to start saving up money again, and hopefully find more trustworthy people for high positions.

Let him sell it to the US, they can't seem to use them right, since all invasions they've done failed, as well as liberating their country which also failed.

Woldy, I think it's time you purge your government from american spies and agents. Only entrust the people you fully believe will do the UK justice.
