Referendum on democracy, Help for every single player and Mass communication in game

You might have heard I'm running for Country President in the UK, you might not. In this article I'm going to talk about a couple of things I will do if elected as CP. These include a referendum on democracy, how I'm going to help people invest in their own futures' and mass communication in game rather than offsite.


Referendum on democracy

The UK needs a referendum on whether we keep democracy or we head into another dictatorship. The referendum we previously had 3 options, "organise a revolution", "remain under the current dictatorship" and "elected Country President is appointed Dictator".

50.75% voted to "organise a revolution"

22.39% voted to "remain under the current dictatorship"

26.87% voted that any "elected Country President is appointed Dictator"


We had an almost 50/50 split on whether people wanted democracy or not. The question was not a yes/no one, and the benefits and downsides where not made clear enough in advance. Once the benefits and downsides of each are made clear I will organise a referendum with the question: Should the UK be a democracy? The answers will be: Yes. No. Abstain.

This will give the UK clear direction on what we are to do in the coming term, and it records active players that chose neither yes or no.



Help for every single player

If I am CP I will issue training ground loans, so players can make the most of upgrading their training grounds when the next admin's offer on these come round. I will also issue training contract loans so people can save money on training by taking the 90% off training contract.

I will also make available Q1 house loans. These will help players that can't afford a Q1 house get one. As you will be aware if you read my newspaper players can earn 63.5 CC extra per week just by having a Q1 house!

Newspaper loans will be available for players that can't afford to start a newspaper. Writing and commenting in the media is a key aspect to improving your activity and knowledge. These loans will help take the UK forward into a more active future.


Opportunity for all and communication are going to be my theme if elected.



Mass communication in game rather than offsite

The forums and the IRC are offsite and many players don't use these. The need for these is debatable, but what is not is that they are an extra layer of hassle that new, and many established players just don't want to participate in. I believe in strong ingame communication. I will increase the use of newspapers, feeds, mass PM's and urge military units to use their chatrooms. The game has the capacity of great communication. I will get the UK connected and communicating. I'm not saying people shouldn't use either the IRC or forum, but I will make communication in the game what it needs to be!


I will be releasing information on economic policy and military plans soon, so subscribe for more on these.
