Dear eCanadians,
I am announcing my bid to run in the CP election on February 5th. My running mate (Vice-President or Deputy Prime Minister, whichever you prefer) will be Prince A.Joseph.
My cabinet is partially complete, and I'll announce it in a little while.
-My Mandate-
I will FOLLOW in Addy's footsteps in terms of economic policy and military expansionism. I have great respect for Addy, and I want to continue where he left off. However I have some fundamental changes to his other policies mainly:
1. Make eCanada a leader among our allies and push for a more assertive, and cooperative foreign policy.
2. Get eCanadians more involved and make government more open, communicative, and transparent.
3. Get rid Rolo's influence in eCanada
1. I want eCanada to be a leader on the international stage, I want to push our top diplomats in a position where they LEAD our alliance, not merely act as secondary players. Leadership, and not population, is what counts in EDEN, and we proved this in the past when we led the alliance even though we weren't even close to being the strongest member. I want to see our leadership shine again; I want to see eCanada be more in control of it's destiny. Either way I favour a bigger step to engaging with our allies.
2. I will work to kick Rolo out of eCanada. I want to bring back the CSIS, and work on a strategy of work with the Armed Forces (MUs) to block Rolo's minions from taking control of parties or winning any sort of elections. Basically, I want to politically and socially isolate Rolo and his people. He is destroying our society because he has nothing else to do and does so at our expense. I WILL END THIS.
3. I want to get eCanadians involved. Period. Under my administration, social programs such as fun games, greater transparency and communication, cooperation with congress, etc. will get a huge boost. I hope my creativity will be put to good use in this area, I plan things like:
-Publish two reports a week from the government as well as maintain DAILY battle orders. Reports will outline EVERYTHING the government is doing as well as Congress activity.
-Introduce education programs that WORK to help ease the learning curve of Irc, congress, forums, elections, etc. For new players. I feel that players who thing our government is too complicated are discouraged from getting involved.
-Polls that will be held once a week including questions like suggestions, government performance/satisfaction, policy performance, etc. I want to KNOW and ENGAGE with what eCanadians WANT from their government.
-Interesting games such as poker tournaments, article contests, other contests, competitions between MUs, lulzy stuff like National Insult Day, etc.
-Create an open space for new ideas and allow creativity to flow more freely. I want government to challenge eCanadians to come up with whatever they want to in order to solve a problem, make the game more fun, etc., and then take a look if it would actually be a good idea to base new policies off of it.
I feel that this increased communication, friendliness, openness and increased sense of community will lead to a more democratic, united, and prosperous eCanada. We NEED to get people involved, we NEED more decision makers participating in government, we NEED a friendlier atmosphere, and we DON'T need government elites, egomaniacs (I actually disprove of Addy's mission to "beat Jacobi" because it relates to his ego, not this nation), and a government whom only a few brave souls dare to get involved because of it's complexity.
We need an open society. We need involvement. We need good economic, military, foreign affairs, and social policy. And we need the leadership to get it done.
That is why on Febuary 5th, I'm looking forward to getting your support, and help enable our collective potential, because united we stand! o7
P.S. Ron Paul 2012 \o/

"1. Make eCanada a leader among our allies and push for a more assertive, and cooperative foreign policy."; I would say eCanada respect from our allies was never so great as when Addy invaded eFrance. Good luck though.
"3. Get rid Rolo's influence in eCanada"
Lulz...when will you people learn that by acknowledging him you're only giving him more power. Octofail, don't feed teh trolls.
Feed?
nah.
Too busy exterminating.

Well we're f*cked 😛
GL mate

good luck m8 🙂
"Too busy exterminating."
Exactly what are you plans to 'exterminate' Rolo. There's really nothing you can do. He has 'no' forum access, 'no' IRC access. Everything Rolo does is in-game. The only way to 'defeat' him is to isolate him. I think it's pretty clear that as much as people won't admit it, a large part of their game-play revolves around Rolo and people aren't interested in cutting him out. So unless you're going to start threatening to ban people that associate with him from IRC/forums then good luck getting rid of him. And the fact that you can't see that just goes to show how out of touch with reality you are.
(Insert comments about how Wally is just a troll and should be ignored below.)
good luck
mmmhmmmm
Shouldn't this paper be named "The Wayward Gypsy"? - You can't be a "Rouge Statesman" when your the guy towing the "Company Line"
I like watching Octavian campaign because when he has solid ideas, he almost always drives them into the ground by aggressively alienating everyone around him.
Can't wait to see the drama - who will be out to get him this time round?
Good luck!

Cleaver for President - Because I Can

bi weekly reports.
So you want to make a report twice during your presidency. I think a weekly report would be better.
As for removing Rolo, not going to happen.
This is excellent news for James McNamara. I don't predict him getting the fewest votes anymore.
Cleaver and Chocolate. Should be breaking out in hives any second now.
You know what? I endorse Octavian F for CP. Your platform reminds me of a young and uncorrupted DAL.
Ron Paul is a raving lunatic, though.
"Create an open space for new ideas and allow creativity to flow more freely." How is this to be achieved? I don't really feel like eCan is a closed society. Unless you take a party that has shown it is all too willing to subvert democracy for it's own purposes and stick all it's main members in the Executive. Then, yes, there will be need to "Create an open space for new ideas and allow creativity to flow more freely."
Sorry Chewytaz, I screwed up my terminology, I meant twice a week, not twice a month. Oops. Lol
Leo Balzac,
Thank you for your question.
History does not lie, and history has shown us our Presidents have oftentimes chosen exclude everyone but their trusted circle, and refused to allow an open platform for people to contribute to policy decisions.
Why must I, as a CP always have to come up with the best idea on how to solve a problem, or come up with interesting stuff? Why do we always rely on a few people to do everything? Moreover, why should I be the only one whose ideas matter? I want everyone who wishes to take part. My government will be (try to ignore the RL communist associations of this word) a people's government.
I believe that only a decentralized approach to power will work in a nation with so many ideas, and we need a CP who is enthusiastic, and open enough to work with whoever steps up to the plate.
I've always been someone whose ideas had to wait "until I got my turn", I don't want anyone else to have to wait this long, the day when our egos and bureaucratic must make way for progress has finally come.
Vote for me on February 5th, and I will make this happen.
So Rolo and I will be welcome in your cabinet?
We both want to be a part of it, and you're saying anyone that wants to be a part will be welcome.
"Why must I, as a CP always have to come up with the best idea on how to solve a problem, or come up with interesting stuff?"
You're the primary leader. In the Canadian context, PRIME minister. Why else would we vote you into office if you show no leadership?
^ Wrong.
There are different management styles, and different forms of governance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_X_and_theory_Y
Octavian's taken first year classes at university everyone!
^ Maybe you should too!
Now taking bets on whether Octavian's introductory understanding of management principles can overcome his tendency to strike a match in the figurative Hindenberg that is his politics
^
I just started a 200 000$ business in real life with my partner and best friend. I think I know a thing or two about management. I'm also the VP of the Conservative club at my University, and we've helped 3 MPs get in office in the last election. We've had the Minister of Defense and multiple MPs come visit our campus and club and although I missed out last year, our club was invited to events with the Prime Minister, while our President went to multiple barbecue events where he met the PM and the MoF of Canada. I think working in an election and helping build such a successful club out of a college with only a few thousand students has taught me a thing or two about management as well.
You're just a liberal arts student (like me) who doesn't realize nobody cares about your bs undergrad degree or bs china studies major. I ain't saying my business economics degree at Glendon is any better, because it's not. Hell it may even be "less prestigious" than the bs you swallowed for 4 years. The point is, nobody cares about either your degree or mine. Maybe you read a few textbooks more and think you're smart because you can come up with a few references you hope I don't understand.
But once you finish university, you should have realized by now that in the real world, nobody cares about either the clubs you ran, the books you read, how smart you think you are, or your ego. And nobody cares about the fact that you're insecure and the only thing you have going for you is that you're a few years above me in the educational system. Any loser can get a BA. In the real world
Either get something done, or stfu, n00b.
I'm 19 btw, and you know that, but don't flaunt the fact the you're a few years older than me. You were jerkin off in your res room at that age.
Keep drinking that kool-aid tho, cause I know you like how it taste.
Take care now.
Octavian, I was talking about eRepublik...
^ Oh I know you were.
This was a response to the things you've said over time.
My favourite part was in the first two paragraphs where he talked about how awesome his club was, and all the stuff they do and bragged about his business and blah blah blah then followed it up with:
"...you should have realized by now that in the real world, nobody cares about either the clubs you ran, the books you read, how smart you think you are, or your ego."
Maybe it's time to take your own advice.
^ Yeah it's true.
Your logic is flawed. I got something done, I'm not just a douche with a BA.
"...you should have realized by now that in the real world, nobody cares about either the clubs you ran, the books you read, how smart you think you are, or your ego.""...you should have realized by now that in the real world, nobody cares about either the clubs you ran, the books you read, how smart you think you are, or your ego."
" I think I know a thing or two about management. I'm also the VP of the Conservative club at my University"
How is my logic flawed? You bragged about your useless club, then 2 paragraphs later said people shouldn't brag about their clubs because no one cares.
Fact:
If I told Muglack the sky was blue, he'd still find some way to say it ain't so.
Octavian, your autocorrect is acting up. You meant to type "Conjecture"
