Estonia No Match For Swarm of American Eagles
Cromstar, Reporter of War, both international and with his inner demons

A glorious sun rises on Forward Base Camp Alpha-Scrabman here in Kesk-Eesti, my American comrades!


The Base Commander prepares his field tactics

The frontlines here in Eastern Europe have been rolling steadily forward the last few days! Previously, as you may recall, we routed the tricky Lithuanians from Russia and sent them fleeing back to the comfort of their pillow forts.

Following up that overwhelming victory, Glorious American President WildOwl continued forward with American Awesome Ass-kickery by rousting Ukrainian separatists who had taken control of Russian territory for some no-doubt nefarious witchcraft!


Editor’s Note: This is neither a Ukrainian nor a witch; find a relevant picture to replace it

Without backing from the central Ukrainian government, however, the rebels fled and Russians were once again able to live in peace.

However, America’s glory knows no bounds, my American brothers, sisters, and even sheeple!

We have once again taken the field of battle against our enemies in Estonia...quickly taking control of a beachhead within their territory. The last time Americans penetrated this far into Europe, half the continent ended up pregnant with Democracy! We can only hope the same holds true today.

In the meantime, the occupation forces are moving from Moscow into Estonia to continue buffering our defenses and prepare for the next attack against the Estonian military regime. I know from walking around camp here, and in other forward operating bases set up throughout the occupied territory, that our soldiers are more than willing to live and die so that the majestic eagle may soar over the Baltic Sea….

Interior Faces Goals Head On - Interview with Secretary Dave Gulya
Irule777, Correspondent on Slander, Libel and Make Believe


The buffalo is always watching

So, Dave, Tell us about your plans for the Interior Department this month

Well, we are looking at a few options. I have been discussing with Kodos, the Administrator of the Meals on Wheels Program, the option of increasing the disbursement. MoW is not as successful as other programs and we are looking at what we can do to make the program more attractive. Also, I am working on a game bot. I won’t have all the details for a little bit, but we are looking at a replacement for Vortex. BeachBunny has reinvigorated Bewbs for Newbs as it is taking right off and we will obviously continue to maintain that Program.

Is this your first term as Interior Secretary? If so, how has this compared to the many other jobs you've had in cabinets?

Yes, this is my 1st time as SoI. This job has been the easiest to transition into. The Staff, Mr. Swagg, Kodos, and Axl Finley keep this department going. They know their jobs, and need little direction. Bringing back B4N and having BeachBunny ready from the start meant little for me to do personally. I just handle the Newspaper, report to the executive and check in with everyone. SAR97 has a project he is working on and Avex and I are putting together an updated graphics package for the Department.

How has working with Wild Owl been so far this term?

Wild Owl is a great POTUS. I have been doing my best to meet his expectations, when he asks for something to get done,we do it. It is the perfect working relationship.


WildOwl judiciously looking over his transcripts on Interior, BUT WHERE ARE THE MISSING 18 1/2 MINUTES?

We've seen some great Interior Media activity already. I assume you plan to really keep that going throughout the term?

That is what the Boss wants. If I want to be successful in this position, I do what is asked. It really is that simple. If you want a job in the executive, or in any job within the game, you must be willing to do the work.



PARTY PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS: A DEEP AND INCISIVE ANALYSIS
Paul Proteus, Propaganda Minister, Adonis personified and writer of his own description


This image will bolster your civic pride

Surprisingly, we here at the WHPR feel a need, to carry informational, educational and, most abhorrently, factual articles. Thus, we begin part 1 of the infinite series in covering the non-stop cycle of seemingly meaningless elections that constitute the void that is eRepublik.

Yesterday's special: Bisque. Today's special:

Party President Extravaganza

So, newer readers, who somehow got past Irule's previous feature, may be wondering, what is a Party President, how do we elect them, and what is the meaning of life.

While we here at the WHPR can do little the absolve you of your existential angst, we can explain Party Presidential Elections.

Every 15th of the month, your party, be it Feds (The Federalist Party), Zombies (The United States Workers Party), Sheep (The Black Sheep Party), WTPeeps (We the People), Amplifiers (The American Military Party), or the myriad of non top 5 parties, which too are man, and will bleed if you prick them, die if you poison them, elects a new President. The Party President runs the party until his term expires, rinse, recycle, repeat, regurgitate, however you wish to phrase it.


My personal suggestion for choosing new Party Presidents

Alas, we do not live in a perfect world, where cage matches, die rolls, or trial by fire determines who leads our nation's parties, rather, we live in a democracy, and how each party elects their Party President varies. The BSP utilizes only in game mechanics to elect their President each month.

Most other parties, however, utilize a primary system, often held on their own forums, to allow their active population to choose a candidate, who is then voted in by the party in game on the 15th.

So, the curious among you may wonder who is running, luckily your friendly neighborhood SecMed is here to break down what is going on in each party.

Delyruin, long time USWP leadership, on the Process and Candidates in the USWP

Gnilraps is running in USWP,
We have a 24/48 hour nomination on the forums, each candidate must receive two noms then accept those noms. Obviously, said candidate must be USWP.
After nominations, we have a 24 hours vote on the forums using a forum poll in a special thread. Whoever wins that vote is the winner and the USWP's official PP candidate.


Paul Proteus, Fed VPP, on the Process and Candidates in the Federalist Party

The Federalist Party begins their primary on the 6th, beginning with nomination and Q&A threads, before culminating with a 3 day Primary vote. 5 Noms are required. Current candidates include Tyler Bubblar, Nick Bergman, Slybabymichelle and DaveGulya with Nick and Tyler rumored to be leading a close race.

Arrden, BSP commander-in-sheep, on the Process and Candidates in the BSP

Blacksheep goes completely on Game Mechanics when it comes to PP elections. No META Primary. No muss, No fuss. Just in game popular Vote. May the best Sheep win. And win fair. Arrden, Dominar Rygel, Jkeller, Captain Blacksheep and I Am The Best23 are candidates.

Evry, US CoS, long time level 11 Amplifier, and reliable guy on the AMP's Primary Process and Candidates

2 Nominations are needed to get on the ballot [for the AMP Primary]. We're currently voting between Aramec vs. AA vs. Swagg

Blande, former WTP PP, on the WTP Party President primary Process and Candidates

We start out with a nomination process that last about 36 hours on the 9th. Any member can be nominated. The nomination has to be seconded and then the player accepts. When the nomination period is closed, we open up the primaries between those nominated. It runs for 48hours from the 11th to the 13th. We use a primary tool designed by mikeontry for voting. This month, we have Cubby running against George Griffin. Voting in the primary is still on going

So, there you have it. Go, vote, participate in eDemocracy. And check back with the WHPR to learn the results next time.
