The Rylde Effect

Day 2,655, 01:51 Published in Canada Canada by Rylde


I've been sitting here staring at the computer drinking beer occasionally scampering to the bathroom to smoke cigerettes while my pregnant GF plays fallout new vegas wondering WTF to do.

I'm not a bad guy and I don't want to be. I wish to be fair about safeguarding our nation

Having a dictatorship has always been my dream. In Dec 2010 me, Muglack and powerown created the Military dictatorship party as screw you to mechanics. It was all about who's going to make trouble against the ruling order. Who's coming with us for fun and activity. Now after all these years its finally being realized.

The game doesn't have the mechanics for a true Dictatorship knob.

Anyone that's ever been in the MDP grew up with those words being thrown in our faces. I won't laugh about it as it took over 4 years of waiting. We can't laugh because it took so long and were still here.

Just want to say since its birth MDP is and has always been here without PTO or name change. (Sasha and Aeriala don't count go screw a goat)

This drinks for you Muglack...Cheers



Miltary plans

If you saw my article a few weeks ago I outlined how I would be a very boring peacetime president. I'm sorry to say I'm not coming in guns a blazing advocating war and entertainment for you as a dictator.

Can you blame me, this endeavor just cost me 200k.

I'll be moving forward with a very conservative plan of rebuilding the govt coffers for defence. Sorry but after so much war and spending we need our cooldown period. We'll sign MPP's so MU's have something to fight for and start counting coppers.

Rylde's Wants

The 200k I had on stand-by in Cordis Die was for the defense of the country. I'll be using taxes to replace 100k which will be replaced back into the MU for the exact same reasons. Its was alot of money and its fair as I plan on trying to be fair holding this position.

I'll be dictator for 2 months with an option for a 3rd month. After that elections rule and I'll step down.



Rylde wins the game!!!

That could easily be the title to this article and you would all have to suck it until you raised 200k cc to fight me.

Political Module

What we have up there is an open page to write. I enjoy the infighting and the disgusting politics of this nation. There's no way I will let that die.

Congress

Congress has always been a bit of a joke. Fighting for players to be active, join the forum and vote when required. We barely meet quorum anymore even when its something important. Now we can be done with that and make it what it always was. A cash grab.

The govt will pay every elected congressmen 5 gold in CC every month under my watch. It will make party politics relevant to a degree. You will support a party and get your friends money but have nothing to vote on.

Party Presidents

Being a party president has always been a thankless job in this game. I want to change that under my dictatorship.

The party presidents of the top 5 parties will receive 10 gold in cc after elections.



Democracy is not dead.

11 Vote system

An in game pm will be created to vote on national affairs.

Under my rule all commanders of the top 5 MUs will receive 1 vote.

I can't base a top 5 MU's soley on damage, membership matters

Current top 5 MU's

#1 Cordis Die
#2 CoI
#3 Pickles
#4 Nights watch
#5 CAF

It comes down to a mix of membership size and damage output. Will be reviewed every 15 days.

Under my rule all Party presidents of the top 5 in game parties will receive 1 vote.

Dictator will receive one vote.

All votes will be honored

No Govt laws will even be proposed until a majority vote is achieved.

Votes can be stacked by position.

Taxes

We want our defensive bubble and politics so i'm sorry to say Plato can't pay the bills, we'll have to. I'll have a sit down with our smart minds and i'm guessing 8 MPPs plus our politics payouts will put us around 7-10% in taxes. Drunken estimate.
