My Challenge to CP Candidates
Callumh123
Region names in this game mean nothing, if you support a 'complete' eAustralia in this game as it currently stands you are roleplaying just as much as the senate, but obviously you will not see it as you are blinded by your ignorance and your arrogance. A duo that has always stunted the progression of the country, because for some reason eAustralia always goes down that path. The only thing garnered by that extra region is resources. So i ask you this, what is more important: Resources, Region Names or Stability and Retention.
If you did not pick the latter, you are part of the group that is destroying any chance of progression.
Obviously regions are important, we need resources and we need regions for congressional elections. eAustralia has a good amount of regions for congress elections, we hold 5 states i think and we are in the best position we have been in, in a long, long time. And yet some seem to want to spoil our good fortunes.
Let's be realistic here, we are eIndonesia's gimp. Statistically speaking we don't stand a chance in hell against them. I have read some want to stand up and fight them for holding our sovereign regions and because we are apparently "bowing down to eIndonesia". Yes, we are bowing down. You know why? We are tired of the constant need to fight eIndonesia, or the need to win back regions we don't really need. We don't need to show eIndonesia a lesson.
Now to addressing another concern, eIndonesia breaking the peace deal.
Let me ask, what of ours does eIndonesia actually need? Nothing. The eIndonesian populace are enjoying peace as much as we are. They see no reason to war us. Obviously that can all change month to month.
But the only way we would be able to defend ourselves is if we begin massive retention operations. I know Marcos Arolia and AVT have begun a massive NPS revival that concerns it self with player retention, but we need more than that. We need every person to help in this process. See a new player? Ask them if they need help or need money or anything to get them to stay. May it be for your Military group or Party, do your best to keep them around, entice them to stick around, become a member of our small community.
So i issue this challenge to CP candidates.
Break the conventional style of the occasional article from the Department of Education. Create something audacious, never seen before. If it doesn't work? Who cares it will be better than the current system. We need change if we want to build.
Don't use the conventional 'keeping the boat chugging along' mentality, create something worth playing and fighting for. Be the change eAustralia desperately needs. Not diplomatically, but internally. Something that has been neglected for years.
I would also like to thank the APP for there resounding results in player retention, remarkable.
Take it or leave it, this is just 2 cents.

I agree with you completely.
This game revolves around war. Just sayin'
Obviously, but we can only war if we are strong enough. You can stand up to the bully, but if you're not strong enough you will end up in a worst position than you where before. This has been proven time and time again.
Its not a matter of being strong or not. We are just grossly underpopulated. We need mass immigration.
Not even Immigration (Though it would be awesome). We get a decent amount of players (non multies) regularly, it is because they get no help and have no idea about what to do in this fucked up game. They have no purpose in this game. Get them to Military Group or party and they will find purpose.

See, boobs in the article Henry.
Considering the way you bullshitted me and the other candidates for your support in the last race, you really don't have the substance to comment on how we're in any kind of predicament. This is typical of e😜ats that's called cut and run.
I bullshitted no one, ask any GnG member, i put up a vote as we always have and Schris won. That was also a time where i had limited access to the computer access and i forgot to message you the results, which i apologise for. You dropped out of the race, and Srg was notified of the results.
I agree with this article. Srg91 for CP!
remarkable article.. let's hope it gets heard !

Nicely put Callumh. While I can understand people wanting to hang onto our RL regions, its more important to put aside the RL issues of the game and realise that the game is a game, it as Infin pointed out revolves around war and as you pointed out Callumh, it revolves around regions and their resources. Its not RL its a game, losing a couple of states doesn't make it bad or good, it just makes it as it is. Again, well put article Callumh.
Great article! Many eAussies need to read this!
I wholeheartedly agree with the conclusion made by this article. I don't think that we are doing a good enough job to retain new players. I would like to offer my assistance to improve the process - as I am only new I do not have all the knowledge necessary to develop a solution myself but I am willing to offer any and all assistance that I can.
I think that eRepublik is very confusing and somewhat scary to new players, and I think a lot of hand holding is required to get them through the first week of play, and to introduce them to the eAus community.
I intend to write about my first month experiences once I get my first hard worker medal in 8 days.
Are you in need of gold to make the paper?
No - I have enough gold to make the paper already. The medal is more a milestone than anything else, marking one month of playing 🙂
