Ireland, we're under threat!
Don Croata
Hello Ireland,
as you could read in the latest update the Admins has decidede to make our lives much harder in a small countries such as Ireland. India, North Korea and few other countries are already facing foreign PTO, while many more small and mid sized countries has decided to protect themselves by installing Dictator.
That’s going to be topic of this article. Should Ireland install a Dictator? It would surely make foreign PTO groups a lot harder to PTO us, they would need to spend 400 000 IEP and actually win two campaigns to make their candidate become a Dictator. I don’t like this change for a simple reason - it makes us be careful and live in fear all the time. There are 80 Military Units in the eWorld which does more damage than Ireland, each one of them could install a multi here or simply buy Irish Military Unit and start a Military Coup. In this case, living under foreign Dictator would be a living hell, he could raise taxes on 100%, he can ignore Congress, President elections and everything else due to game mechanics set by Plato. It means we would need to spend 200 000 IEP to start a revolution and much more to actually win a battle.
How would we live under “Dictatorship”?
Imagine how would we be treated if some foreign group does this in eIreland? It would be the end of our community! I’m not dramatic, it’s realistic..
That’s the reason I’d like you all to consider installing our own Dictator. Dictator can be installed through a Military Unit, which means that we would need to start Military Coup from one of Irish MU’s, we need to win this Coup and install our own Dictator. Considering Admin decided to allow elections to be held regardless of Dictatorship we would still maintain democracy by electing President. Once we elect a new President the current installed Dictator would pass the Commandership of the Military Unit which won Military Coup to elected President and this would mean we’d democraticly elect a new Dictator.
If we install the Dictator and change it considering our elections, we would still be able to have congress in which we’d play some sort of a meta game. Congress would still discuss things, propose laws (not ingame though) and we’d basicly live the life we’re living right now, just a bit more out of the game than ingame.
It’s simply important to do this, because any foreign group which would try to PTO us (and trust me this would happen in next few days for sure) they would need 400 000 IEP to even start wars, not to mention that after the first Revolution start they would completely lose the element of surprise attack which they have now.
We’re simply not strong enough to fight back some serious attempt of PTO. Many of smaller countries are already facing Dictatorship, losing citizens and falling apart. I don’t want to see this happens to eIreland. UK and Canada has already installed their own Dictators and I believe for the protection of our country we should do the same. Of course, no one should push for this to happen, we all need to agree, because it will take much more communication and coordination to live under Dictator we install. Plato is successful in killing small communities, let’s fight him back with game mechanics we need to start using.
I’ll also say that Ireland, Canada and United Kingdom are going to sign an Agreement of mutual protection very soon, we’re going to protect each others, more about this will be published in Official MoFA newspapers as soon as deal is concluded.
Lads, we need to act fast, I’m sending this to all Party President as soon as article is published. United we shall prevail, divided we’ll be PTO’d.

Any MU for sale ???? PM me any price ....Don't forget your IBAN ....
I agree.
better prevent than heal!

I'm agree, Ireland should install a Dictatorship to protect itself...
Who gets to be dictator first? The one who won't be elected democratically?
In this case An Sluagh since he's democratically elected President, then after the next elections the future President gets Sluagh's MU and becomes Dictator.
Just playing devils advocate. What happens if someone doesn't give up power?
That's the issue, you're right.
I think it's much less chances that someone elected would refuse to give up power than some foreign group MU.
In each case we would have to start a Revolution.
That is not a very satisfying answer at all...
duh, 5n4keyes for Dictator!
it's a remake of the 3rd reich here, perfect match, gratz !
Retardation level: Cry of the Banshee
not a secret btw
It would be hard to hide 😉
On my phone now so I'll read fully your points later other than to remind you to get congressional approval prior to a final signing off on any treaty with Canada & The UK pls
Of course.
Mind that phone, Winston - Big Brother is watching you.
Your role-play is rapidly getting closer to reality in eRep 🙂
he he
Just because there may be a threat of a dictator doesn't mean you get to be dictator, you were advertising that you (or one of your ilk) were to be dictator days prior to this, seriously you're a fascist through and through.
DO NOT SUPPORT.
Also don't lie and say you're sending it to ALL PP's because I certainly didn't receive a message.
I'm completely fine with you being simple mind when it comes to ILP or some internal BS we're having, but when it comes to Ireland you need to forgot RL things which makes you reject this and think outside of the box for once.
Not having Dictator puts us under risk of getting a Foreign one. Foreign one shall be here in few days if we don't do something about it.
What do you want? Spend whole treasury to stop one attempt and then never recover from it again??
You're added now, didn't have you as friend so added WHS instead.
Shocking. Had no idea this is exactly what you'd say. Absolutely floored. Not totally predictable at all.
My reply is to CF btw.
as mentioned in my article this is a bad idea. a 1000 stong army need about 400 iep from each member and we havent seen anyone really deterred by the 200k cap. your destroying the whole democratic principle to safe the treasury. look at my other idea building up a mu org . we can use citizen accounts to fund our army months in advance or for the year. we can safe enough money for mpp's for the rest of the year. we can thereafter entrust some of our trusted politicians with loaned which they use to buy factories or gold and pay back said loans at a vig of 5000 per month per 100k loan. then we can keep say 500k to play on the monetary market with in case of attack we can quickly move it.
this we can all do and thereby protect ourselves.
in tribal wars we were told to make your village as unattractive as possible basically a spartan build with very little resources. thereafter if someone do take our country he will find an empty chest. yes he can still cause crap but will soon get bored and leave for the next soft spot.
i thought you would understand what a vig is. vig is a mafia term your principle is your main debt your vig is just what you pay each month and remains the same till the day you repay your debt. if you loan me 100 k you have an income of 5000 per month and have your money returned in 10 months. say we spread it over 10 players we each month have an income of 50000 without risking our money and whilst having our armies funded and enough for mpp's.
rather keep us democratic and take all the risk than killing of a part of the game which most of you adore.
Anyone who can sell me a MU .... pm me any price ! 😃
3 million dollah and you can buy a biggish one 🙂 not ours though.
😛
I agree. I don't like it, but the mechanics of the situation make it prudent. I think we just have to beware of the heavy role-players and self victimized who see spooks and fascists around every corner and who would sabotage the country for the lulz.
I am against this idea. It has some good sides and some bad sides.
Bad things that I find important:
1. If one that is elected as CP refuses to give dictatorship to next elected CP, then country needs to spend 400k cc. 200k for removal of "old dictator" and 200k more for putting new one in position.
2. Players will loose 205 golds monthly, from not getting gold from medals (CP and Congreessman). Congress elections will be meaningless.
Good things that I find important:
1. It will be harder, and more costly for enemies to install their person as eIrish dictator.
2. One MU led by the state president (dictator) will be easy to coordinate, and finance.
There are surely more valid arguments for both sides. When I "weight" good and bad sides, I still think it is not so good idea.
Players wouldn't lose golds since Dictators gets some gold too, he could simply re-direct it to elected congressmens.
And if CP refuses it then it's a problem, but this problem is same as "if president decides to rob country" so not much would change..
I think that dictator gets one true dictator medal monthly (50 gold) and two or three trainee dictator medals monthly (10-15 gold). That would cover part of the loss, but not all the loss.
It would take a while to donate that gold as there is a limit am I correct?
Limit for accepting gold, not sending..
Yes we can totally count on this one person to distribute all the gold to EACH congressmember and not exclude anyone for any reason. Not a very good argument at all.
lol Then I am incorrect.
the sending and receiving of gold means you can only send 10 gold per day.
if i send you 100 gold the first day you get 10 gold then 10 day 2 and finally 10 on day 3 then on day 4 the money is returned ie 70 gold so no there is a soft limit on what you can send as well don croata
I'll just say that none of you are gonna enjoy when someone comes over to PTO us.
And it will happen sooner than you all think. Hopefully Colin Fox will gather 200 000 IEP to start the Revolution 😉
then we become their friends and turn them into good citizen you are missing one important thing. lol can you think what iut is. what happens with successful dictator?
Haha, not many would be successful dictators I'm afraid.
How about one of you becoming the dictator of the UK ???
you have the 400k they already have a dictator and how big a force do you have backing you
ok i shall stop toying with you he becomes irish his citizen changes. most of the wipes was dealt with in the past with diplomacy just make new friends everywhere.
Okay, can I just say this sounds really suspicious? Not accusing you of anything but... yeah, pretty damn suspicious.
Wise.
Muuuuaahhhhahaha....... I demand to be paid.....1000$ or your country is mine
Or mine
😮P
U both will fight for Ireland regardless of anything...
HAIL IRLANDA!
^ Yeah you command them, you're a higher rank after all
Ireland has never been one to cower in fear of anyone else. I support Democracy and Freedom. If we install a dictator that turns sour, what will we be thinking? I'd rather fight any and all attempts of Coup to secure that all Irish citizens have a voice. Well, as much a voice as we currently have with game mechanics, ie President and Congress.
I may have a number of friends here in Ireland, and around the world, but I would never entrust any of them with the entirety of our government. I wouldn't even trust myself. The voice of the People must be heard, and the best way is for free elections every month.
We are stronger than we sometimes think. And if by chance a foreign MU decides to Coup us, (or some selfish domestic weasel) we will have the support of our neighbors and friends. But if we fail, I'll at least be satisfied we gave our all, and that said Dictatorship won't last forever.
Taking over Ireland has happened before, It will undoubtedly happen again.
However anyone taking over, wouldn't have access to any of the resources, and would need some impressive strength to take over our congress, so would likely be unable to hit us too hard. A country can function without a President.
Basically... 5n4keyes for Dictator!
