My take on Australia's Foreign Affairs situation
•
by Timeoin
Back when I first announced that I was going to be running for the job of Prime Minister, Australia was in an ideal position. We had just succeeded, with the help of Brazil, in starting to gain back our regions, and Australia was in a prime position to become a complete country for the first time in many long eYears. It was then my intention to use this momentum to our advantage, to end the war with eIndonesia, and spend the month consolidating our position with our allies, by helping them out in their battles, thus ensuring that we were good allies to them as well. Circumstances since then, however, have deteriorated.
The job of the Prime Minister, as such, is to adapt to these changes, and roll with them. Ideally, if elected, I would have liked to spend the month helping our many allies to win their battles for them. Circumstances have changed, and instead, we must gather ourselves together as a people for a hard fight. We now face not only Indonesia as an enemy, but New Zealand saw the chance to take advantage of our temporary weakness and use it against us. Thus, my goal for this month is to get back as many of our territories (and hold them) as possible. We must be strategic in where and when we fight, and we must fight smart. This, then, is the aim for my term. The first goal is to gain back the territory New Zealand has taken from us, and then to make them pay for their opportunistic insolence, and then to see what the situation with eIndonesia is. (Please Note: I do not want a training war with New Zealand. I will close this ASAP).
If possible, I want to get our regions back from Indonesia, however, I am a
realist, and I acknowledge that this is not going to be possible to do without serious allied support and costs on our behalf.
It is not, however, impossible.
If I am correct, Australia will be in a much better bargaining position at the end of my term than it is currently (Its hard to argue on equal terms when one has no regions).
We are just about to win back NSW, giving us a country once more. Vote for me this 5th, and join me in taking the fight to New Zealand, and then get as many of our regions back from Indonesia as possible.
Thats all from now, I'll be publishing the rest of my platform very shortly. And remember, vote Timeoin for CP on October 5.

Timeoin For CP
What is CP? ...
cheese pizza
Well time to fight hard! We really need to sit down with these guys and talk this war over a little better.
CP: Country President. The in-game name for Prime Minister 😛
Ok, so your plan is the same plan that eAussie has always tried.
Have a victory or two & think the tide has turned.
You can beat eIndo every now & again but you can't hold them.
Try something different ffs. Accept the regions eIndo will give you & actively show them you have made a serious change by fighting against eAus RWs in those regions. Then when you have gained eIndo's trust mpp them. Then they can relax & you can talk about a better region deal for you.
You eAussies just can't get your heads around this game. RL borders & regions mean nothing here. You haven't got the population to hold all of your resource rich country.
Do something different. Gain stability and watch your country grow instead of banging your heads against the eIndo wall.
And as for eNZ, that was just the fault of our retarded Congress. All they wanted was the NE bonus. In the end it actually helped you. It was bad timing & I am sorry but wtf can u do. You don't take an IQ test to get into congress, you're living proof Timeoin😛
@Crusadercarl +1
lol if you people are STUPID enough to think we will give up half our RL population away then you are even stupider than we thought.
Timeoin: YEAHHHH... Same story DIFFERENT day
Crusadercarl: agree with you o/
What RL population are u even talking about?
Any noobs born in eIndo held eAussie will suss things out p quickly.
If u think you aren't baby booming because eIndo holds a few regions then I don't know what to say. I would suggest eIndo constantly getting angry & wiping you would be having more of an impact on that.
Just consolidate some regions & actively seek out the poor confused noobs that turn up in eIndo. The stability gained from this plan will help both eAussie noobs & veterans.
Change the plan ffs. How long does this downward spiral have to go on before you guys can figure out it's not working?
Tim Holtz you are just telling the eAussie public what they wanna hear to become CP. "We have amazing support, we will win and be free forever' LOL what a joke.
Be a true leader & tell your country the truth. That plan has been tried for close to 3 years and has NEVER resulted in a long term whole & prosperous eAussie.
You dont even have Sorlandet as a region that you want to conquer.
:/
I suspected it would be the case and it looks like I was on the money - foreign policy will make for an excellent debate topic! 😮)
lol CC ill run my CP campaign however i want.
first off im not talking crap or lying to the public. i told you that you need to look at the map, im telling you again look at the map.
"and has NEVER resulted in a long term whole & prosperous eAussie. "
wrong, again. dont you remember the good 9 months we had a country.
"If u think you aren't baby booming because eIndo holds a few regions then I don't know what to say."
thats exactly what im saying. the days we had our regions were both economically and newb based exellent days. we had a more growth newb wise
WA, SA, and Vic is a very large portion of our RL population
Excellent idea Tim, but kiwis & indos are working together.
I would love to rub Carls face in his "New Serbia - i mean Zealand has never been wiped because we are so clever" and would love to cram his patronising advise down his ethroat (sorry Carl - you are cool but your game posture leaves much to be desired) I will be there when NZ is wiped thou \o/
I cant vote for you any more - but can fight. Reject that insolent advice out of hand & do what you can for Aus
WE GONNA GET RA.... HUGGED
Fine. No problems then. Sorry if I came across arrogantly. That wasn't my intention at all.
As you were.
australian best bet is diplomacy with president's from the pkei party.. like imobil here..
pkei supports freedom for all countries, while on the other end are the nationalist.. who fight only for the progress and interest of indonesia..
careful with avatars with red and white, they play to put that flag all over the world.. especially australia..
Carl was not so much arrogant as playing as an indo catspaw. Let them state their arrogant terms themselves.
I have no doubt at all that is what indonesia wants of Australia.
A subservient cringeing role. Taking what the indos deal out to us. and then if we are very very good then maybe a role for us - but just don't expect Australia back. It was the point about Australia actively putting down any resistance wars that may flare up that really got to me.
In fact there are Australians who would/& have accepted such shite (they would call it realpolitick)- and it was them actively putting down RWs, attacking other Australians that made me leave Australia in disgust. But I will give my all for Australia if I see Australians prepared to do the same - no compromise

Thanks
First I'm an eSerbian pawn, now I'm an eIndo one. lol.
I have played this game for almost 2 years now Louise. I can't even count the friends I have lost along the way due to eAussies policy of no compromises. Too many, way too many. And some amazing people, but they just got ground down.
That's my only motivation. Not tricking eAussie into something for eNZ or eIndo's advantage. I was eAussie for a long time. I know every damn eAussie that has been through all the hard months and I don't want to lose any more good friends for some impossible dream.
I served in the ACUK, DB's & ended up DB marshal. I was fighting eIndo's long before you even heard of this game. So don't say I'm some kind of eIndo spy tricking eAussie into bowing down. A lot of people you talk too could say a few things, but I don't think they'd think that of me.
eAussie has the advantage of actual RL Aussies interested in joining this game. U can't buy the loyalty of a RL player, it's priceless. eNZ doesn't have that, eAus is very lucky. But they need stability to grow, not losing a country every week.
I'm not talking about a subservient cringeing role. I'm talking about realising your limitations and working within them.
people play for the reason of getting our home regions. you clearly dont understand that. if we all decided to stop trying to get our home regions back many would quit myself included
~hyuu~
timeon i agree with CC your plan is exactly the same as all the other potential cp's since i joined, and TBH majester was the closest to reaching those goals. maybe all potential CP's should stick to holding home regions and the potential of taking a couple from peru or eNew serbia
CC - we tried that, yet the Indo continues to attack us and wipe us every time new missions come up or they simply want the NE bonus. We have good intelligence that clearly indicates that there was coordination between some in Indo and NZ on this last wipe of eAus.
Just sitting around and enjoying half of our country is a no go as it does not ensure safety in the least bit. Besides, what other country just automatically gives up on their own regions? Well, at least countries with fighting spirit?
There was 3 NO vote 2 of them was from my unit
I vote that Aus wipes eNZ off the map. Let's liberate all sheep shaggers!

Hey Carl o/
Indos & Serbs are allies & work well together so take your pick.
whether you know it or not you are acting as a puppet or a pawn or a catspaw, or even a judas goat for them.
Those terms sound nearly acceptable coming from you - coming from any indo they would sound arrogant and just put Australian backs up that much more. Better you do it hey.
There are heaps I could say here - but maybe better on IRC or even our forum. I will save it for there.
One thing I did pick up from indo posts was that Indonesia sees Australia as a strategic threat, it is in their interests ALWAYS to keeps us crushed & powerless & NEVER to let us get any stability - your post is misleading re that. See my av - its Joan of Arc, she never accepted the limitations imposed, why should I, why should Australia in this game
