Romanian Candidate magically appears in the voting list in Russia.
Smirnoff
Vote this up if you feel that people have to know about it.
I am here to let everybody know about a really weird bug that have appeared in Russian Presidential Elections. Perhaps, this bug would not have appeared without the "all mighty outer" help.
As you may know, Romania tried to take over presidency last time but failed.
This time we were waiting for them.
I (the president of Free Russia Party) and Foreign Legion (the president of Communist Part) were chatting on MSN and looking if the Romanian Party (Fair Russia) would propose a candidate.
23:50 pm. No candidates proposed from Fair Russia
23:59 pm. No candidates proposed from Fair Russia
--
So we decided to keep our candidates and not to Unite for the Elections.
12:05 am. I decided to vote for my friend.
There are only 3 candidates:
1. Creos (Free Russia Party and Pereskroika have proposed him)
2. Manifesto (from Communist Party)
3. Smirnoff (because one party has proposed me as a president)
This is the only list that I have seen during the first minutes of elections. I make my choice and go to our Russian forum to let people know to vote for Creos.
I come back in 10 minutes. What do I see?
12:15 am. There are 4 candidates now. The candidate from Fair Russia comes up from nowhere.
I thought it was a bug or it was a delay in proposing a candidature.
However, after talking to several people (and now obviously after the fact that Romanian Candidate won), I feel that I have to let the community know about this bug.
The question is how did this bug happen? How did the 4th candidate appeared after the voting process took place and he clearly was not there?
It is up to you guys. What do you think?

what???
if it is a bug it will cost your country..i guess u know what i mean by this..if not read the romanian newspapers...i do not agree with this kind of playing this game but this are the rules for now...good luck with regain your country...

"In momentele urmatoare, Romania va deschide battle-uri in toate regiunile Rusiei, iar presedintele Rusiei va apasa butonul RETREAT TROOPS, capituland toate acele batalii. Regiunile respective vor reveni Romaniei, si Rusia va inceta sa mai existe pe harta lumii noi."
use a translator for this and publish it
/voted
this is a fair game and the admins had no implication in this. i now it is common to whine when someone looses, so i was expecting things like this.
"... the 4th candidate appeared after the voting process took place..."
= not true
even if what you say is true, if you were monitoring fair russia so closely why didnt you ask for help from other PEACE countries ?
it sounds as a lame excuse to me
Why don't I hear from the president of Fair Russia? I want to know what time he proposed himself.
"In momentele urmatoare, Romania va deschide battle-uri in toate regiunile Rusiei, iar presedintele Rusiei va apasa butonul RETREAT TROOPS, capituland toate acele batalii. Regiunile respective vor reveni Romaniei, si Rusia va inceta sa mai existe pe harta lumii noi."
"In the next moments, Romania will open battles in all Russia regions, and the president will press RETREAT TROOPS,running away from this battles. Thouse regions will go to Romania, and Russia will stop exists on world map"
Help from other countries? It should be that you cannot vote if you enter a country on the day of elections.
No lame excuse. Either it is true, or it is false. But they examined what happened. Like observers to see if elections are fair. Seems they were unfair to me. The admins could clear this case.
What they decide we will see. We will see after that what will be the impact. And no whining, war will be there.
The romanian candidate was "in the game" with 10 seconds before. He was there at 10:02 when I checked... so... use F5 (refresh button) more often. Seriously...
What you are saying here is just a lie. And I understand that you want to make propaganda... you lost. It's understandable.
On the other hand, I see that Gregorius Maximus it's the same here as in Romania. You can keep it. Or you can take him in Russia. We don't care. 😃
Yeah Karolina, of course... accept the fact that you lost. This is it.
We made you a great offer in this war a few days ago. You decided to ignore our very attractive offer. Now you pay your ignorance.
This is life (or e-life).
Fair Russia consists of 2 members. LOL
Goons can take German and Turkey. I even do not talk about South Africa and Swiss, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland, Australia... And this is not bug this is feature))
If you country has president with less then 200 votes - you easily can be next. They do not need to cheat with q7 weapon and extrastrentgh. Just make or buy 200 tickets and fly to you country. This is more cheap.
Bye, bye all small states. You will be die. eRespublik does not have any balance at all.
cocoamok: you dont seem to know the rules.
you can vote if you enter the country the day of the elections.
i moved to russia 10 minutes before the elections ended.
and smirnoff is not an independent observer: he is an active figure of russian politics and a candidate for presidency.
even if such a bug existed ( bugs seem to fly around in erepublik when you least expect - so anything is possible ) it does not excuse the lack of action from the russian government.
"What do you think?"
What do you want us to think?
it's no multiaccount, it was carrefully planned..
i know your frustrated , but there was no bug..
just strategy.
i was in at 00:01 and all 4 candidates were there.
tHE mIHAI: I voted at 12:05 am. He was not on a list.
Besides, at 12:15 am your candidate had only 1 vote.
Admin, please look after the_mihai and lic_ptg. They can be one person. I suspect them/him in multying. Both nicknames have underline. Funny coincidence. huh?
This is life. LOL.
So in RL Russia or China can make coup in RL Romania. LOL.
Maybe you used russian time instead of eRepublik time.
@Smirnoff
Maybe you didn't refreshed your page before voting.
Fair or not, its wery odd that you can candidate for presidency when the elections are _going already_
@smirnoff: 🙂)
Your name starts with a capital S, just like mine ending with one 😁
strange coincidence.
The era of goons.
"Felicit Soimii Patriei, FAR, FTR, FNR si VM care au raspuns ordinelor de a vota in Rusia, felicit Armata Romana pentru performantele obtinute, felicit SRI pentru implicare si eficienta si felicit toti actorii care au facut posibila aceasta victorie a Romaniei."
In English (Google translate):
"Homeland congratulate Hawks, FAR, FTR, FNR and VM who answered orders to vote in Russia, congratulate the Romanian Army for the performances obtained, to congratulate SRI involvement and efficiency and congratulate all the players who have made possible the victory of Romania."

Here you have a printscreen with me as candidate
http://img387.imageshack.us/img387/9996/candidatkf2.jpg
I proposed myself 2 minutes before the end of the time, probably there is a certain delay on the server.
I'm wondering why didn't you ask that BEFORE I won the elections?
here you have your proof...
NO BUGGGGG
just frustration
Shame on you to make such lies. Fair Russia candidate was there from begening. It's not romanian fault if you can not organize.
no morality sigh....
wow. you definitely knew that there is something like that gonna happen.
i say photoshop
lic_ptg:
Why did you take picture from that?! Sounds a bit odd..
Hahh, it's not a bug. It's a feature! But sadly not for all...
@lic_ptg, does your screenshot have the upper part of the page with eRep time? I betcha it doesn't. I have reported you anyway.
@ghishae: I know the rules. I now that you can vote on voting day if you enter a country. I said it should not be possible to vote when you enter a country on election days. The meaning of the word should is that this needs to be changed because I think that is an improvement.
@Smirnoff, learn to loose. don't make false accusation, how do you have to sustain your complaint???
you said that at 12:05 he was not on the list, at 12:05 am he already had 1 or 2 to votes, so please change or reinstall your browser 🙂
Please stop with lies, if that was an issue, you should have complained from the start, every person that complains after he looses is just a looser.
Funny. Why you prepared a printscreen?!
You may have known something already ahead.
karolina's report tickett:
"Dear admins
It's not fair, these romanians are too smart for us. It's not fair! We want to play this game too.. but we can't because they outsmart us every time. Please bann them, all of them. It's not fairrrrr"
@sebahmah
Ok,but let's write a list of every bug in the whole life of eRepublik, how many times eRomania has been "damaged" ?
How many times hundreds of players have voted an article beacuse of a bug or anything else that his unfair...
Do you mean we are all dull ?

what Russia?! 😁
@sebahmah
400+ players ! Yes this is because for the first time,you,eromanians, experienced a bug !!
You'll see tha same thing with the next eChile,at the first time a bug will change something,we'll se a "big revolt"...
take it this way..
if i would own erepublik i would never help romanians..jsut because things like that. I want to make money, and youc an't make money when users blame you for not being fair. I love my people, but this is a business, sometimes a business full of bugs.
Where in this just like any others, we are affected by bugs and we try to play the game as best we can.
Have the admins check my inbox.
I have orders issued about this 2 days before the election.
Stop whining.

Most likely the cache tricked you or you didn't refresh the page...
Do you realise how ridiculous it sounds to acuse the admins for this?
Voted.
Voted! Bug again?
In love and war everything is allowed so don't whine about the morality of this situation. This was no bug, just ca carefully planed action. You lost russia; we'll soon welcome the russian players to e-Romania
I do not support this action by the Romanians. I will fight them myself if I have to, I don't care if I'm labeled a traitor. I was a good help to the USA during the wait between the wars with Argentina. Hopefully this will open some eyes.
As much as I do not like the Indos, I will fight with them against Romania if I have to.
People of Russia .. I hope you understand that eRepublik its not a game made for Romania ... erepublik = = eromania . The admins are aware of that and thats why George Lemnaru didnt made this game as a romanian game, he made it as an international game. The investors are not romanians, and everybody is aware of the fact that this game shouldnt help any countries in particular. The admins wont cut their checks just to morally help eRomania in order to conquer eRussia.
The admins are working very hard to make this game a nice environment for everybody; the goal of the game is to gather more players not to get lose of the existing ones. And everybody from erepublik staff knows that very well.
Now you understand that this is a strategical game, its very shameful you cant accept the defeat and reorganize yourself in order to regain your country in the future.
I had a lot more respect for Russia till this moment. (even if i know your are just a small bounch of russians ..and u are not semnificative for the whole real country).
It is time to reorganize and do a deeper thinking of the game..in order to get back what you've just lost. Good luck.
Great article, Smirnoff.
I still think it's funny that we're discussing a bug itself, but not an arrogant attempt of Romanians to usurp the power for the second time. As we already noticed, the Romanian party consists of 2 members, the other people used tickets to move to Russia and then again to Romania. About 322 tickets summary. It's impossible without the support of Romanian government.
Of course now it's obvious that all attempts of Petrescu and Nemeiah to call themselves an independent group are ridiculous. Simultaneous action of Nemeiah and Alex Craciun, starting a war after several minutes after RW in Moscow confirm it.
Voted.
