The Federalist Press (Day 2130)

Why Feds?
Staff Writer - Dr. Strangeluve

eRepublik is a game which has hooked me big time, and not because I get to fight enemy countries and to prove that I am a patriot!! No, not only that. In eRepublik I find great challenges. When I think of how to do a certain thing, e.g. to become a better soldier, I then have to think, “Is it possible that I, being in Division I, can be a better soldier than most of the in-game players, and not only those of my country!?!?” And the answer is “YES, there IS a way”.  Of course, to become a better soldier on the battlefield, whenever you take part, you may have to sacrifice participating in some battles, so that you can allow your strength to stay in line with your division.

So how does a younger player gain assistance to compete with those in his division that seem so far ahead?

A Political Party?
YES!!

For example; the Federalist Party, which is more than a party, is the place which makes the player BELIEVE in what they do for the game, that is to say, for the eCountry first!

In the Federalist Party, one gets the impression that whatever is being done is closer to the truth, closer to the right things that need to be done! It is the party which never leaves its eCountry in the background, but it fights for it in all aspects (diplomacy, promotion of the righteous, dismantling ‘cancers’ of our society like AFA etc. etc.). Oh, and did I mention the Fed Party meta game, or forums and IRC? It’s just incredible how it works. All the soups that one tries have at least a little Fed flavor!!

The Military aspects of the Fed Party

Feds have their own Military Unit. S.H.I.E.L.D. is MU which, in my opinion, has a flawless mechanism in how it works. It has players of all Divisions, I, II, III and IV. This MU has a Quick Response Team, S.W.O.R.D., and the H.A.M.M.E.R. program which promotes new players, teaches them, and makes them stronger; and the support is simply second to none!! Besides supplying its members with daily needs, it also supports them with extra Gold to build and upgrade Training Grounds, so that when they enter a battle, they simply ROCK!! I am the embodiment of the aim of this MU; in less than two months I have reached nearly 5k strength!! Adorable, isn’t it? But all that wouldn’t have been possible if I were not assisted by the program, a S.H.I.E.L.D. program, a Federalist Military Unit program!!

Finally, if you are new to the game and have not yet decided where to go and what to do; try the Federalist Party and S.H.I.E.L.D. MU. In less than a week, you could be writing an article just like this one!!

So, S.H.I.E.L.D.s UP and stay Proud and Horny- only with the Federalists.



Hello again, it’s your friendly neighborhood Federalist Underground Network (F.U.N.) interrupting this important newscast with a reminder to fight apathy and join the revolution.



I know that everyone is still running on high with all the loot Plato has given you, however, I wanted to share phase II of my plan to end the zombie apocalypse and once again bring true sovereignty back to our great virtual nation.  Only through sheer will and determination can we succeed.  



Phase I was known as the revolution by the pen.  Phase II will be now known as revolution by mass mail.  I am asking everyone to send 0.01 USD, or any other currency sitting around, to Ronald Gipper Reagan followed by the below personal in-game message:

Dear RGR,
I noticed you needed a friend so I sent you a donation and wrote you this poem. Send it to every one of your Serbian friends.

Friends
-A friend is someone who is always at your side,
-A friend is someone who likes you even though you have body odor,
-A friend is someone who likes you even though you’re disgustingly ugly,
-A friend is someone who cleans up for you after you’ve soiled yourself,
-A friend is someone who stays with you all night while you cry about your loser life,
-A friend is someone who pretends they like you when they really think you should be attacked by a mad goat and then thrown in a pile of garbage,
-A friend is someone who scrubs your toilet and vacuums and then gets the check and leaves and doesn’t speak much English, no sorry- that’s the cleaning lady,
-A friend is not someone who sends you chain letters because he wants his wish of being rich to come true.

Now pass this on! If you don’t, you’ll be eaten by wild goats.
Yours Truly,
A non-Serbian


By working together we should be able to flood his inbox with the aforementioned letter of admiration.



Now back to your regularly scheduled program….



Announcements

Political Director: AlexJ1890
"The Federalist Express is currently looking to buy slaves… I mean hire workers to work in our sweatshop… uh, help send the messages with all the important information every Fed should know.  If you’re interested in helping, contact AlexJ1890 for more information."

Retention Director: Apollo221
Feds Retention Program is always looking for help! New members need a warm welcoming committee and a little guidance. Retention members get the chance to create a relationship with new Feds, while gaining experience themselves.  Don’t be shy, if you would like to help, feel free to message Apollo221 for more information.

Tech Director: BlondeNinja
The Federalist party is constantly improving and undergoing changes to achieve such aspirations. As such we have formed a new department dedicated to the technological side of the party’s pursuits and meeting the technical challenges those present. The new department, more specifically, is developing advanced tools, scripts, and providing technical support for all areas of the party. We have already begun work on some of these items as well as building a team to work in this area. The scope of the department is not as limited to the seemingly drab aspects of coding as far more than that is involved in technological based work. We encourage any and all Feds interested to apply. I am proud to be placed as head of this new department and am very excited to begin realizing it’s full potential.


SHIELD Update
Staff Writer Mourning Star

Listen up soldiers, snap to.
SHIELD is getting ready to make some big changes which may or may not directly affect you!
The Brass has been flipping through piles of paperwork, spreadsheets, and documents. They have come to the conclusion that we are giving out WAY too many supplies per person per day, to the point our Quartermaster Storage Facility looks like a BP oil spill... We've been handing out too many tanks and/or not enough food. In order to maintain a presence on the Global battlefront and continue the supply line you so desperately need, we will be scaling back the amount of tanks you receive per day so it more accurately syncs with how many fights you are able to perform.  If this seems like you are getting the short end of the boom stick, take a look at what we HAVE been handing out:
15 tanks = 45 fights
1000 energy = 33 fights roughly (depending on the energy of your enemy) (not including what you use for working and training)

Our end game is to keep supply levels high by shrinking the gap to 12 tanks which will enable you to fight 36 times. This will have little to no affect on those players currently in Division 1/2. We are also working on how to properly supply those in Division 3 and especially 4...so don't fear our "heavy hitters" will still be properly supplied and cared for.

The money and raw supplies we can save by doing this enables us to funnel more funding into programs such as HAMMER, as well as being able to pass out extra rations during particularly important battles. Now the good news is that you, the Soldier, will still be able to fight the exact same amount of battles with no extra work on your part. The quartermasters and leadership are the ones that have to shuffle the paperwork, red tape, and supplies.

Another proposition that has risen to the surface is the possibility of having all HAMMER soldiers be located in the same Regiment under one roof for easier tracking and processing of supplies and personnel. So if you are a member of HAMMER or have the dreams of becoming one... keep your A-bags ready, and your boots laced up.
