Dictatorship v2

Day 4,491, 17:02 • Published in Canada Canada

• by Thedillpickl

Hi kids!

The gig is about up for Emperor Mann. I purpose that it is time for me to continue the saga. I must say that Mann has graciously offered to allow me the opportunity to take over the dictatorship. This is so that I can also have the medal. I already have the Liberator medal, it sure would be nice to have a matched set.

Read Mann's recent article.

I would also follow his lead in allowing our Congress to make decisions as well as donate the necessary funds to the treasury and compensate the lost gold from government medals. You shouldn't notice any change.

I've always liked Pink Floyd. In an earlier time I would while away an afternoon, sunken in my favorite recliner, a drink or two at the ready and I'd let their music paint images in my mind.

Ahem...
Back to the point.
I would like this medal but most importantly it would be wonderful to know that you, the Canadian people, still trust me, your forever loyal pickle. Please comment below. Yay or nay, I want to know if I have your support.

Thanks,
dill

I suppose it goes without saying, but you have my support in this. You are a trusted individual, and I believe that you will carry on with what I have initiated in personally covering the cost of the dictatorship and reimbursing elected government members so that the cost to eCanadian's is 0.

I also don't believe that you will do anything stupid in the dictator's chair.

TL😉R:

Yay

Thedillpickl Day 4,492, 15:54

Define "stupid".

Mann551 Day 4,492, 15:58

do you recall that one time you accidentally declared war on a bad country...

Thedillpickl Day 4,492, 16:05

Yeah...
But I'm mellow in my old age. I was thinking more of inviting some friends over and hiring some "professional" entertainment.

Sure thing!

Minho Village Day 4,492, 00:44

V 11. Give me some food.

Thedillpickl Day 4,492, 15:59

You are not Canadian so I don't know why I'm bribing you! lol
Enjoy!

Minho Village Day 4,492, 16:35

I love you🥰

Wilhem Klink Day 4,492, 04:44

"I also don't believe that you will do anything stupid in the dictator's chair."

Agreed.

John. Day 4,492, 04:51

of course yes

Ginoraf3000 Day 4,492, 06:59

😮 What a coup. That was unexpected 😛
Good luck!

TheCanadianPunk Day 4,492, 10:15

still waiting for the free pickle as written above lol!

Simulare Day 4,492, 13:45

bend over and touch your toes...

Thedillpickl Day 4,492, 16:20

That was only for Pickle's Patriots. 😉

Thedillpickl Day 4,492, 16:19

Sent one diamond encrusted solid gold pickle.

Chochi Day 4,492, 20:19

So are you going to bribe us, too? I mean, will there be any social programs like the weekly allowance or whatever it's called?

Oh, that's right. Universal basic income. UBI for anyone?

Thedillpickl Day 4,493, 11:40

Sent standard bribe.

I would have to consult with Mann before adding any extras. My main concern would be that no one would be out anything for my folly. Not that I'm cheap but I'm already selling packs to pay for this.

Chochi Day 4,493, 18:10

"My main concern would be that no one would be out anything for my folly"

As it should be. Kidding aside, this was the first thought that came into my head. I can't see a single thing that's changed under dictatorship in general and I have no doubts that would continue under you, specifically.

Mann551 Day 4,494, 16:14

Chochi, I can list two things that have changed under dictatorship.

1) Half of our income disappears into nothingness
2) I'm going broke ensuring that it doesn't actually effect Canada 😛

Thedillpickl Day 4,494, 17:42

Yeah, I missed the memo. I thought the point of the dictator mod was so some nefarious character could PTO a country to steal their gold and wreck havoc. Seams the idea now is for admic to siphon off extra cc.

Do not bend over around Plato if ya drop yer wallet.

Chochi Day 4,494, 18:13

Yeah, they totally nerfed it a few years ago now, I think. The Admins rarely actually remove their mistakes from the game and they could never admit that Dictatorships was a mistake (and probably one of their worst ones).

So it's still limping around with a price tag so ridiculous that only the absolutely rich and absolutely foolish would actually try to attempt it. It's so reassuring that two of our country's top 5 players fit that category. 😛

Chochi Day 4,494, 18:13

P.S. I hope it's not costing either of you that much real life cheddar.

Mann551 Day 4,494, 18:17

250k cc per 5 euros. 1 million to establish a dictatorship, 1 million to take it down, and 1.1 million to ensure no impact on Canada.

3.1 million/0.25 million = 12.4 instances of 250k. 5 euros per 250k means it is about 62 euros. Convert to your own currency, but I'm actually Canadian, so that's about $90-$95, assuming I had nothing in the bank beforehand

Chochi Day 4,494, 18:23

Oh, dude, is that all? Less than $100 bucks, eh? Considering how many people have spent thousands (I think I've even heard 10s of?...) when you said it was expensive, I thought you were talking about an amount most people aren't ashamed to blow in a single evening (if only rarely, for most of us).

~hyuu~

Kippers Day 4,497, 04:37

Gotta have my Congress gold reimbursements.

grindarkly Day 4,498, 05:49

I'm OK with it. you got my vote.....so to speak.

Rylde Day 4,509, 07:31

I've come for my throne my dear pickle.
