Comrades,

In recent months our party has grown quite a bit and we've been comfortably in the 1st place spot for member rankings for a few months now.

While I thank and congratulate everyone who's efforts helped make this possible, lets remain realistic. Numbers do lie in this game. A small handful of those "members" are multis/spies/plants no doubt while others are two clickers. So what does this mean?

There's nothing to worry about. The ILP leadership has had a close eye on some of the potential multis and we are in complete control. They know this and I have no doubt they will eventually leave, die off, or reveal themselves.

That being said, I still think given our increase in members recently that this is an ideal time to strengthen the comradery within the party. Therefore I am throwing my name in the pot as a candidate for PP. I will not be focusing on recruitment this term if elected, as we are already where we need to be and must first focus on keeping the solid players we've gained lately.

GOALS FOR THE NEXT MONTH

1. Return of the Comrade Awards - We need to recognize when our members make us proud. There's been a lot of effort from some of the party, particularly younger members, and we should appreciate that. It may not be overwhelming, but the Comrade Awards have always done the trick in showing that appreciation.

2. Reforming the ILP Leadership - It's been a while since the leadership has been changed up. Some of the newer members deserve a spot as well. I will be replacing at least 2 spots this term if elected.

3. Attempts to improve relations with distant parties - I plan on contacting the leadership of another far-left party and attempt to closen relations. This means perhaps a joint-message thread, supporting and sharing of articles and intel on both the parties and nations. I feel this will give a boost of activity to our party and connections are invaluable in this game.

4. Updates and Activity on the ILP site - Yes the site has been almost abandoned. (again) But it still remains useful and there are quite a lot of good forum posts on it as well. I intend on updating the site with polls and perhaps some new info and conversations on our forum as well.

CONCLUSION

Best of luck to the other contenders for the position. It should make for a good election and I have no doubt the party will be in good hands regardless of who wins.

Thanks for reading comrades,

-RA
