Baja News
The White House would like to thank everyone for paying attention to the papers, in particular The Press Room, and successfully letting Mexico take Baja back. This was going to happen in 2 days regardless of the outcome of today's war. By letting Baja be taken back by Mexico today, we managed to disrupt PEACE, who was behind the unplanned RW that started last night. By attacking one of our mainland borders, PEACE tried to ensure that we couldn't attack elsewhere in the world. When we are attacked on a border, we aren't permitted to start an attack elsewhere.

MILITARY PREPAREDNESS REMINDER
On behalf of the Congressional Military Committee, I would like to remind everyone in the Military, citizens who are involved in War Games and the general public to remember to always be on alert and prepared for battle. Here is a short list of reminders on what to do:
1. Start each morning with 100 wellness. This will allow you to be prepared to defend your country when/if it is needed. If you can't obtain 100 wellness, aim for the highest possible wellness you can achieve.
2. Hoard weapons and have a moving ticket. Weapons and moving tickets are necessary in case battle arises. Moving tickets to get you to a state with a q5 hospital/a state where we are bordering a potential threat or the slight possibility that you may need to travel to a foreign country to fight for our country. A weapon is beneficial as it will boost your total damage points. Q5 are the best, Q1 are the weakest, but a Q1 is more suitable with people on a fixed income. Statistics show that citizens who aren't overly wealthy fare better with Q1-Q2 weapons. Don't spend all of your income on higher quality weapons if you can't afford them.
3. Fight later in the day so you can still do damage at night if a battle shows up in the middle of the day. If a battle occurs in the middle of an eRep day, you can fight twice in the battle's 24 hour period. The first fight will happen within the timespan of the 1st eRep day in which it takes place. You fight, work then train, then you heal yourself at the q5 hospital. Then, once a new eRep day occurs, you repeat and heal yourself back to 100 wellness in case a new battle starts elsewhere. Always end your battles with 100 wellness from the Q5 hospital. Below is an example:
Battle breaks at 1400 hours eRep time on Day 527 of the New World. You fight and then heal yourself back to 100. After the eRep time passes 23:59 hours on Day 527, you will be able to fight in the battle again until 1400 hours on Day 528 of the New World. Each new day on Erep, you can heal yourself at a hospital. You can only heal yourself ONCE each eRep day from a hospital.
Keep the above in mind, especially with the current situation the eUS is in. Stay tuned for further developments.

Can I have the gold you get for Media Mogul?
I'm done voting up articles that don't say anything.
When do we find out who we are attacking? I've given up hope on finding out why, but who would be nice.

@fingerguns: Yes, let me lay out the entire plan for you and the world to see... then lets see if that plan will be successful.
Good job on the claire-ification for the reasons behind the baja strategy and our limitations there. We need more of this in the future. Simply saying "don't fight in baja" won't help unless we have reasons.
> we managed to disrupt PEACE
Haha, are you sure? :')
Thanks for the medal though! 😃

voted, Good job again Us for voting this up.
@Pablo J. Diablo: That was a quick release that needed to be put out there in a hurry. I didn't have all the info, so I just posted the basic message. I will try to be more clear in the future.
@Gladdos: Where is the graphic? I'm still waiting on it.
@Jazar: It was our honor, you are welcome.

That scammer tried to do the same thing last month, unfortantly for him he sent me the PM while I was speaking with George (one of the admins) so it got contained quickly.
Ugh...whatever. This administration is exhausting.

Thanks for the update and the explanation.
I realize it is hard to be patient. But please realize, this is like a chess game. Giving away our strategy before the time is ripe would be suicidal.

I will be voting in the forthcoming presidential election for the first time. It seems to me that the continued alert is merely a campaign strategy to boost the President’s chances of re-election. It will not work on me. However I like to be positive so I suggest to the President’s election campaign team that they rent Wag the Dog to find out how professionals fake a war, To everyone else, if you are interested enough to read this comment, you will split you sides laughing at Wag the Dog.
I'm pissed. I wanted to invade someone....
Russians will kick your ass

Thanks for the updates, Claire. Weapons are stockpiled.
I am amazed that these type of scams still work anywhere at all. I did not buy such stories when i first used the interweb. wow.
Voted
bump
propaganda
you cant do anything :d
re: the scam.
I DIDN'T get a scam e-mail, and I'm NOT registered in any forum.
Perhaps that's where the scammers found the email addresses?
crap or get off the pot already
I want to buy a Q5 house, i'm waiting for offers.
@RolloOReillie: The forums have nothing to do with the scam message that was sent in game. Not everyone got the message, but those who have are reminded to not share their password with anyone.
so my american friends.. when are you going to help us beat some peace ass? as you can probably see, we could really use an ally, because the 3 countries that are attacking us are tearing us apart.
be prepared.. leaves no man behind..
this newspaper is boring don't vote or subscribe to this
