A Gag From A Gag Part One: Pre-Game

Day 2,555, 19:50 • Published in USA USA • by Jude Conners


EDIT #1: Article reflects changes due to new information from the Congress sub-forum moderator, Tenshibo. I thank him for the corrections.

I'm sorry, but I heard there is a gag order in the American Congress concerning events that surround and are a direct result of... well... me. As it turns out, it is actually a restriction of speaking of the events by a moderator of the Gen Section of eRep, who is also the current standing president. I was working on second-hand information, since I cannot see the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is the forums. I did not intend to besmirch Tenshibo's stance as an unbiased moderator.
Well, since I am not in that Congress a USA Forums contributor and I am not even an American at all anymore, I'm quite sure that the gag order has no bearing on me. What's the worse that can happen - Will I get BANNED from the US Forums? 😛

I want to first thank a very good friend of mine, who - when faced with not one, but TWO ultimatums to end our friendship and publicly denounce me by another fellow player - decided that a real-life friendship is more important than a browser game. For that, I thank her. BFFs 4EVAH ❤!!!

With that said, it is time to spend a jolly splendid time to explain the events from start to finish that have resulted in a multitude of reactions;

➀ I announced my request for account deletion from the USA Forums and the game as a whole,

➁ I leave the eUSA and head to the eUK,

➂ Another player also announces retirement from the game and also drops out of the American Congress and heads to the eUK,

➃ I take a play from the Pfeiffer playbook, and cross the line, and finally

➄ eUSA Congress Oblige announces a gag order over talking about the incident. EDIT #2: Apparently, Oblige has lifted his ban on discussion. Again, this is secondhand information.

HOW DID ALL THIS EVEN START, or WHY DIDN'T I JUST STAY IN SFP?
It was a dark and stormy morning when I announced to the Socialist Freedom Party that I would be leaving and looking for a new party. Comrades cried, the vodka flowed, and Karl Marx flipped over in his grave. The sad truth was that the party and I had been slowly drifting apart. I had nothing against neither the members of the party nor the party itself... it was just time for a change of scenery.

Anyway, I started forum posts in each of the Top Five's forums, seeking for a simple answer to a simple question from members of each of the respected parties: Why should I join your party? At first, I didn't even bother asking USWP, since Pfeiffer has instituted a permanent life ban on me - forbidding me to join the party that I am directly responsible for its existence in its modern form. But that's a looooooooong and drawn out story, full of sex, lies, and videotape. In the end, Pfeiffer distorted a factual story and replaced it with his own version of the "truth".

As I said... I wasn't even going to post in the USWP's subforum, but decided to show them the same courtesy I had given the other four parties. Unfortunately, no courtesy was shown in return. After a drawn-out show of pure stupidity, started by Kemal Ergenekon... Pfeiffer decided to close the thread with what I guess was his attempt at getting the last wor😛 "You shouldn't. End of Discussion".

Now some other person would have just walked away from that, but you have to know the history between Pfeiffer and I. I took the complete disrespect as just another challenge from "The All-Father." I decided to have a few laughs at his expense and prove a point at the same time. Despite what he believes in that deluded mind of his... PFEIFFER DOES NOT RUN THIS GAME!!! So I said to myself (and a few other people in my clan, "Challenge Accepted"... joined USWP (for what was to be just a day)... and ran for USWP Party President.

THE RACE FOR PARTY PRESIDENT, or A VOTE FOR JUDE IS A VOTE AGAINST PFEIFFER!!!
Let's get one thing straight... this was not a PTO nor did I have any inkling that I would win. I just wanted to make Pfeiffer sweat a little bit. I knew it was a losing battle, but as I said... It was supposed to be just harmless fun. I even had a sweet campaign slogan...

A VOTE FOR JUDE IS A VOTE AGAINST PFEIFFER!!!

It was funny as hell. But Pfeiffer didn't think so. He even tried to sick the Head of Homeland Security on me. I explained to Tyler that I didn't think I was going to win and that it was purely "for the lulz" and he was satisfied with my answer. But that showed me that I was getting to Pfeiffer, so I launched my second wave of attack... Mass Messaging.

I know that Pfeiffer has a tight grip on just about every member of the party that isn't a multi of his, so I went through the list of party members and identified those I thought were the key players - party leaders, pfriends of Pfeiffer, other VIPs, and those who I thought were Pfeiffer multies. This created the illusion of me mass messaging the entire twenty-six page list of party members even though I really only messaged a total of approximately three pages of members.

Things were all fun and games until this point, but then came election day.

I will discuss how things went REALLY downhill in the Part Two of this series.

Till then, it's been your pleasure.
