The Bright Side of War
Chris Stanwick
While we all have to admit that this war has gone quite poorly for us and our allies, there is at least one bright spot in it. The brightness is experience points. Since we have had battles to fight in everyday since July 13th, most of us have gained experience points much faster than ever before. Working, training, and eating normally adds three points per day to a person's total points, meaning they level very slowly. However, constant warfare adds at least an additional ten points per day, everyday. That means, if you live in New Jersey or Florida and fight five times a day, everyday, since the war began, you'll have an extra 220 experience points than you would have if there wasn't a war. War is not always a bad thing, especially if we were winning.

Hooray for leveling up.
Yea sadly for me im still a couple days from level 5.
Then i gotta work up a tone of cash and get all the gold im gonna need ready to do a bit of resistance work when the time comes 😛.
Vackert
Stanwickmaxxx!
Chris...You are a bright intelligent person with very good writing abilities. But, drawing attention to concerns of new players distracts from our dire need to focus on the exact, precise tactical methods needed to turn this war around!! Joshua Hoss for President!
Everyone should have been fighting everyday before this war, through war games and other fights throughout the world.
@John D. Rockefeller: don't exaggerate. Half the time, there were no battles regular U.S. citizens could engage in.
@Mjb: There were war games three days a week and the games were scheduled to stretch across the reset. That would allow for fighting 6 days a week if you wanted to do so.
Those war games, and their regularity, are correctly credited to the scrabman administration that HR was such a big part of. I didn't campaign for HR last month, but lets be honest about the guy's accomplishments.
EXP is hardly a bright side that can outshine the fact that our nation's capital is under siege by a foreign power, but thanks for trying. XD
Such a plus.
*commenting in a Chris Stanwick article*
The bad thing is I had to take a 80% pay cut because of the increased taxes.
LOL, our nation's capital is under siege and you are thinking about xp points. YAY for leveling up.
Small consolation Chris. I'd rather be level 1 with a whole country.
Chris, I do believe you've gone insane.
considering im running for congress soon and will not be in your cabinet i can say this: you have truely lost it. i appreciate looking looking on the bright side as much as the next guy but darn Chris now is not the time.
Then why do you want to surrender Mr. Stanwick?
As a representative of russian army I have to say that this article makes perfect sence.
Absolutely normal way of thinking.
no leveling, what's the use. Just surrender.
I like the idea of thinking positive... It's gives a reason to play after all...
actually yea i agree aabout war giving you experience points. thats why i cant wait to fight, but the drawback of war is too big just to worry about how to level up faster. if we have just three states left, will the experience points have been worht it?
poor article
And don't forget about military rank too! Most of us are using guns, whereas in the wargames we fought barehanded. I'm already Colonel!
hey... if you guys can't keep positive we lose. he's trying to keep moral up, and he's right. as we level up, we get more gold (once we reach certain levels) and we gain more rank with more fights too... it makes total sense. just let him find the silver lining.
Levelling would improve PEACE if all of us joined, fat cat. Level up whether we win or lose.
I'm thankful as I'm now level 14 instead of level 5. I have PLATO telling me I can run for president... bout as well as Ron Paul did I suggest lol.
When you lose the war, you can say at least we fought till death.
Oh, wait. You are ready to surrender.
hum... i would be more worried about other regions... but ok... worry about the capital plz 😛

FOOL FIST
wow, then I'm glad to inform you that under PEACE occupation your life will be just one big bright fucking spot since they have everyday training battles on the regular basis (take Chile vs Argentina war for an instance). And why I wonder one month-old russia kicks yo ass? 😉
I'd rather have all our regions then some measley experience points. Everybody in this country within a right mind should think the same. Plus, War Games....
neat
Hey, we Peace pay for your exp. Be thankful to us.
LOL
I'll still be a very unhappy Russian Citizen, no matter what level I am.
