Questions from Yesterday's Article
Cypher Rahl: Wow I expected a few more skeletons than that?
The bond issue that I managed could be considered a skeleton. A lot of the problems raised in the most recent issue of bonds were raised in the previous issue of bonds when I was MoF. I didn't recognize the ethical issues at the time and felt that I was right and behaving in a valid manner because I was following the precedent set by my predecessor. However, the precedent wasn't ethical and I wasn't following the rules to the letter of the Bond Act and the Bond Act had ethical shortcomings. Ignorance is no excuse and I guess I rationalized this skeleton away by virtue of the fact I responded to the feedback I received and made recommendations to improve the bond act which congress passed.
Scotty Wilkinson: There are more skeletons in his closet.
For instance, I hear he once shot a man in reno.
Captain Kushskins: Just to watch him die?
I’ll bet there’s rich folks eating, spending Victory Bonds tonight,
Its Q5 food for breakfast, and Q5 guns to fight,
Well change is round the corner, on June 5 you will see,
Addy is your daddy, consider voting for me!
I Am A Viable Candidate
I am a viable candidate for Country President for several reasons.
I am an advocate of opportunity, opportunity for oneself, one’s country, one’s party and one’s company.
I am active in the game, I have a strong knowledge of the eRep economy, marketplace mechanics, and I do not live with my parents and run the risk of getting grounded or punished and not being able to use the computer.
I am trustworthy; my private bank has never defaulted on a pay-out to a customer.
I have a plan, I have three distinct and clearly defined things that I want to do, nothing more, nothing less.
I am not going to try and solve world hunger nor create world peace during my term. I would like to achieve three objectives and I am asking for you to give me a mandate to pursue them. To be candid, I don’t think any of these things is more difficult than the Team 120 Project that I am working on now.
This is the "main event" in this series of articles, this is the "eye of the cyclops", these are the mandates that I seek in my campaign for Country President.
1) See the eFrench Maid to the Door
2) Titanium Tycoon (TitTy)
3) Little Man Bonds
Primary Objective: Close the eFrance War with a peace treaty and no gold changing hands.
Presently, we have activated eFrance’s MPPs and with the strength of their allies, eFrance does not consider eCanada a genuine threat. Concurrently, eCanada continues to divide its military resources between support of EDEN’s international military campaign and the domestic war with eFrance. At the present time, eCanada’s two high titanium regions are vulnerable. Sure, we have the support of our allies to count on, but things change. Will our allies be available if EDEN has two or more fronts under attack? We must take care of our own business and not rely on others to take care of it for us.
My plan is to put EDEN on notice that eCanada will be curtailing support, both in manpower and finances, until we resolve this situation. To frame it another way, our contribution to EDEN will be the distraction that will be caused by eCanada’s complete focus on closing the eFrance war. My Minister of Defence, Muglack, will then put together a battle plan that brings a genuine war to eFrance. This war will include battles, economic attacks, trolling, and most importantly, negotiation. It will be a collaborative effort between the CAF, the TCO, the Van Doos, the Praetors, the Paradoxian Guard and unaffiliated ecitizens across the country. The communication of battle orders will improve in quality and quantity. We will hold one eFrance region until the last day of my term to satisfy the first National Goal. We will then execute the peace treaty and return the region to eFrance.
This initiative will be excellent for our economy as weapons and gifts are used daily in the war effort. It will be good for our society as people will locate to eCanada to stick it to eFrance and rally around our cause. It will also be good for National Unity as ecitizens rally around a cause to eliminate a threat and close a war that, in hindsight, we truly didn’t want.
Headway is being made in the eFrance war and this plays into my strategy, into eCanada's strategy. Without eCanada becoming a nuisance to eFrance, eFrance is not motivated to negotiate something better with us.
Secondary Objective: The Diamond / Titanium Tycoon Initiative
Titanium Tycoon. TitTy. I love it. It's lulzy, its fun and it's eCanada's future.
eCanada is endowed with two lovely tits, high diamond regions, in Nunavut and Northwest Territories. Presently, this commodity is the rarest in eRep. I intend to exploit this opportunity with the Titanium Tycoon, TitTy, mandate.
All Q3 diamond / titanium companies, or higher, that do not have an export license will receive a 10 gold reimbursement grant from the government when they do buy a license. To be eligible to receive the grant, you will have to prove that you bought the license during my term (screen shot before and after) and the license must be into a country that is a member of EDEN. Also, this must be your only license in addition to your license to sell in eCanada.
In addition, upgrade reimbursement grants will be given to all diamond / titanium companies totalling 25% of the upgrade cost from Q2 to Q3 and/or from Q3 to Q4 and/or from Q4 to Q5. The process will be exactly the same as the export license (screen shot before and after, timed during my term).
Gift companies will also be eligible for the upgrade reimbursement grants as well. Gift companies are expected to convert to copter and tank companies and having higher Q tanks and copters around at the commencement of v2 will be a competitive advantage, this is excellent v2 preparation. In addition, higher value gifts are a more effective use of inventory slots.
Gift companies will not be eligible for the export license reimbursement grants. To be candid, eCanada’s manufacturing sector is not competitive on the world stage and in my opinion this would not be an appropriate use of public funds.
Exporting is the best way to generate wealth in eCanada and our buxom tits are an awfully attractive source of potential wealth. This program will capitalize on that opportunity. It will create national unity insofar as our nation will be identified as the premiere source of diamonds / titanium in eRep and we are open for business. Sure it will skew the economy to diamonds / titanium and gifts / copter / tanks and that is a competitive advantage.
This is where my Minister of Foreign Affairs, Tyler F Durden, comes in. He is not your typical, diplomatic, follow foreign protocol and etiquette type of guy, and I agree, he is not your “high tea” diplomat and may seem like an odd choice. The main reason why I choose Tyler is that he is a strong negotiator with flair and he gets things done. He is also widely regarded as a proponent of titanium production as well as copter and tank production. His mandate will be to ensure that his ministry makes contact with our allies in the Brolliance, SHIELD and EDEN and get them on board by providing financial support to our Titanium Tycoon program. In a perfect world, allies would pay for half of the export license and the exporting company would pay the other half making this a “free” initiative for eCanada. This initiative will attract capital, business owners and employees to eCanada. What a great environment to start a business under! GDP will grow and so will our population.
Tertiary Objective: The Little-Man Bonds
I am very disappointed that the improvements I recommended to the Bond Act were not embraced in the most recent issue of bonds. Afterall, I made those very same mistakes myself in the previous issue, but I listened to the feedback and did what was within my influence to improve the situation.
To provide our young and “fiscally challenged” eCanadians with the opportunity that everyone deserves, I will be issuing “Little Man Bonds” on June 15. This will be a small issue of bonds, 500 gold, and the maximum number of bonds that you will be able to purchase will be a function of your experience level, 20 minus your level. For example, I am level 21 so the maximum I could purchase would be -1 (20 minus 21) or nil. That is right, only people at level 19 or lower would have any interest in these bonds.
These bonds will be attractive as the payback will be short, only 30 days, and the return will be solid, $10 more than the market price for gold on the date of the announcement.
The purpose of these bonds will be to fund TiTy. It likely won’t cover the entire cost of “the implants” however it will bear most of it and it will foster unity between our young and the vets, the needy and the wealthy, and that is a positive outcome in my books.
This initiative will attract young citizens to eCanada as only eCanadian citizens can purchase bonds and it will provide an economic shot in the arm to a generation of young eCanadians who struggle to get at these opportunities in eCanada given that prominent and elite senior eCanadians are often standing in the way. This initiative will also promote National Unity as the more senior amongst us step aside and facilitate some gains amongst the more junior amongst us.
This mandate will fall under the purview of my Minister of Finance, Sir DeLaRonShaun Smith, an experienced and steady hand in this Ministry.
Tomorrow I will address the momentum of the existing government that isn’t broken and that I have no intentions of trying to fix. Think “New Citizen Message”.
Your daddy in national unity,
Addy Lawrence

God I love tits
Stit evol I dog.
\o/
Yay! TitTy!
First man in eCanada history to do something that was wrong but not against the law and ADMIT to it. Canada needs more men like you....
Who doesn't like tits Salty?
No one. It's a scientific fact that everyone loves tits.
This is awesome! I'm still trying to run though 😛
"To be eligible to receive the grant, you will have to prove that you bought the license during my term (screen shot before and after) and the license must be into a country that is a member of EDEN."
I don't trust that. Too easy to photoshop. You should have the person wanting the reimbursement message the person who dispenses them, he or she should check to make sure it's clear before and after, just to be sure.
Regardless, Addy for CP!
I love tity but
"In addition, upgrade reimbursement grants will be given to all diamond / titanium companies totalling 25% of the upgrade cost"
ALL companies, including foreign ones? Shouldn't this subsidy be reserved for Canadians?
eCanada is endowed with two lovely tits, high diamond regions. That’s some funny Sh*t right there!
But I don't think we should be abandoning the war with eFrance. Just because it's not working doesn't mean that there isn’t a way to make it work. The French don't consider us a threat and that should be used to our advantage. We need to entice them with our glittery titys, get them in close and boob slap them like a lap dancer at Jilly's.
To presuppose that our mpp’s may not be there for us is just fear mongering. They will be there for us just as the French mpp’s were there for them. I just don’t think that we are being devious enough. Sun Tzu sai😛 “If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.” Are we approaching these battles as Sun Tzu would? I don’t think so.
You sound like a man with enough brains and integrity to run my eCanada but running on a platform of surrender or “treaty” won't get my vote. We CAN win, we just need a person in office willing to explore every avenue before throwing in the towel.
Vote and Sub BTW. George Kirk
Good luck Addy but I have a question for you, how are you going to close the war whithout giving a gold to France? They are asking for 1k Gold 😉
I second framboy's question.
I also want to know who is in your war cabinet.
better yet, what are you doing to try to close the war, polar bear?
Addy, what will you do if the "Little Man" does not want to buy the bonds?
George, the ending the war with france part is the non-partisan part. Don't make him explain it.
The france war was a farce.
Canada was lied to and Congress was forced to accept it via Executive Order.
It's time we accept that and leave these usurious cretins in the dust where they belong.
On may 5th, vote for Addy Lawrence!
Addy's my Daddy. Shouldn't he be your Daddy too?
Addy says "our contribution to EDEN will be the distraction that will be caused by eCanada’s complete focus on closing the eFrance war." and goes on to say that the military progress we recently made against France supports his policy. Then, the president of Canada retreated from battle and no other battles against France have been attempted. The only good interpretation I could put on this is that, France has sued for peace, having learned what is coming next term. I fear that is not the case though. I sure hope this cessation of hostilities in France isn't because Addy said the hostilities would support his plan when elected.
Good to see you're looking out for younger players.
I agree with the TitTy and the bonds program!
