[Saoirse] Congress Lineup

Day 1,830, 11:53 • Published in Ireland Ireland • by Stilpo



Greetings Ireland,

With congress elections coming up in just a few days, we would like to ask you keep Saoirse in mind as a party that is worthy of your vote. As a party, we believe that we have made great strides in becoming more representative of - and more responsible to - the Irish people. However, we do admit that Saoirse isn’t for everybody. If you are perfectly satisfied with the way things have been going for our country lately, Saoirse may not be the party for you. If you take solace in broken promises, half-truths and endless excuses, Saoirse may not be the party for you. If your political ambitions revolve around real-life ideological dogma that has only limited application to this game, Saoirse is definitely not the party for you. If, however, you are a practical and open-minded citizen who takes genuine pride in your country and wants to see Eire lifted back to its rightful place of glory and respect in the e-world, Saoirse might be just what you are looking for. Our lineup of responsible and innovative candidates share your vision and are eager to work hard to see it come to fruition.



But don’t just take my word for it. Below is detailed information about each of our candidates for your review (in order of highest to lowest priority on the party list). As you can see, our candidates include some of the most successful veterans and promising new players that eIreland has to offer. In fact, our final priority list has so much depth that even those near the bottom of our list would likely to do an excellent job if elected to congress. A vote for Saoirse, therefore, is one of the smartest and safest decisions you can make.








SELECTION PROCESS:

Before we get to the lineup I would like to take a moment to thank everybody who submitted an application for congress this month with our party. With 25 applications the competition was very steep and the choice to assign priority to certain members over others was extremely difficult. In order to make the decisions as fair and objective as possible, all applications were reviewed by an elections panel that included myself, our vPP, our party advisor, and our three party directors. Each application was carefully reviewed, weighed against personal knowledge of the candidate, and given a priority rating between 1 and 5 by each reviewer (reviewers did not rate themselves). These ratings were then averaged across all reviewers to determine an overall score for each candidate. Final placement on the priority list was determined by this score.

I have started the process of improving our country by donating 100 gold to the treasury. Small steps lead to bigger and better things, hoping that others follow in my foot steps to improve our country that was ruined by a few selected people.
