Pfeiffer for President - One final twirl
Pfeiffer.
Many people have asked about the coming changes to USWP, there will be more info on that this and next week. I announced earlier than some in the party would've liked, but I did so because it was the holidays and I had little time. Be watching the media.
Now, the true purpose for this article is to quasi-announce that I'm running for President. I decided at the end of last week to do so, as I wanted the final USWP nominee to be someone I felt fully prepared to handle things...and we didn't have that candidate at the time. It's not just a matter of knowing the mechanics, but responding appropriately to the daily minor drama and can balance the interpersonal BS that makes up the majority of our meta these days.
I'd say nearly all of you know me by now. We're a small community and I've been around longer than almost everyone. Everyone having an opinion set in stone about me is probably why I've only been President once, much to the amusement of myself and...well, everyone. Kingmaker never King thing starts out being annoying but really is amusing.
That being said, it's because of these opinions that I put myself forward. The Devil you know, really should be my tagline this month:
I'll address some of our major identity groups, then tell you about the month I'd like to have:
USWP - My family. Not much more to say to you guys. I love you, I'm sorry I'm no longer capable of carrying things on my own. I think that things will come out better after things transition, but it will probably destroy me to watch it happen. Thank you for so many good memories.
Feds - You guys hate me. But in the way you hate that one family member you argue with all the time when your parents/spouses make you go to events you'd rather avoid. You can deny that, but it's true. Many of my oldest and dearest friends are or were Feds, and I began my political journey with you. I understand the politics of your leaders taking shots at me for so long, I perfected that strategy when it was me taking shots at Scrab and Ananais in USWP. No harm, no foul. I'd appreciate your support this month, and thanks to the minority of your forum-goers who voted for me (despite my lack of announcement) in your primary. I'd post on your forum, but I'm banned until 2030 because Orik (being a dwarf) lacks humor.
SFP - Those of you who are actual socialists and not just people who like being loud for the sake of noise...I'm your candidate. This is a game, winning it means maximizing the gains from mechanics, and I've always advocated socialist programs to that end. Sad to see the turmoil you've been going through with the various unstable elements combating your internal 'establishment' in such a mean spirited way, there was a time that the SFP and I got along rather well.
Sheep - You don't like me. I don't like the super loud and angry parts you let lead you. Oh well. I advocated, and advocate, for the lowest prudent taxes...so I mean, you'd probably be better served with me than some others. Hope you all had a nice Christmas.
WTP - If you're alive, hi. Oblige is gonna vote for me, all of you know me, so I'm pretty sure that we're on decent terms. Vote for me, kthnx.
AMP - Glad you're not officially dead. I win though, so suck it Haliman.
EZC - Most of you will vote for the CO. I don't know if he's permanent or whatever now, but a large part of why I jumped in was how horribly he reacted to being called out for politicizing the MU forum, the MU discord, and the MU shout wall. It's disrespectful and beneath the position, and the position needs someone who can act like an adult when necessary. I'd appreciate your consideration, and point to my years of work within the unit and externally to support it with my time and treasure to counter any claims that I'm not really 'of EZC'. I wish I could have not included an MU in a political article, but everyone knows that there are dozens of people who will base things off of MU politics, so...here we are.
Anyone I missed - Yo, join a larger party if you want a shoutout.
literally me in the cool kids discord
Governmental operations will largely carry on as they have done. But that's the case with literally anyone seriously running for President in the last 2-3 years. Probably longer, if we're being honest. So, vote for personality. I'm way more entertaining. If you don't love me, you'll love to hate me.
Also, I'll probably give away a bunch of money in articles and whatnot. I mean, I just gave away a couple hundred and still have like 2200 gold...I never spend any because training is free and so it just keeps piling up.
Oh, and I think I'll bring back the 'post butts/boobs/whatever you like' thread on the forum, because that's just enough lewd to get us through the day, and really we need that.
Happy New Year to you all, may it bring many blessings to you and your families.
Vote Pfeiffer

😁 a NO sounds good to me. 💕FHK 😘
I would vote for you. I know you wouldn't blame your multies to be impatient for attacking the wrong regions 😁
Good luck!
There is no 'wrong region' - conquer the world!
where is FG ?
which SFP members into your gov ? rather than just voting for an ideology : (
do you favor new players in American gov ? : ((
what neeew ?
Bruh you're a Cypriot - become American and we can begin a conversation about what's what...
but really, anyone who steps up is welcome
the issue is so many people wanting to do what they want on their terms, which isn't how it works
well
I have only one e-life
like I have only one life
or I'll have a thousand of projects
and one interesting is e-US blocked politics
for which you just avoid to answer : D
Anyone?
The first lie, even before his term started 😃
Try me, boy-scout! Take me to your leader!
[PotUS] Top Secret Meeting leaked!

Praise Pfeiffer!
😁
If I would say: "good luck!" I would be lying, so,...
Haliman can't read you this year, I think.
That's good.
Glad you finally admitted that a vote for you is a vote for the Devil.

👍👍👿
good luck sir.
Thanks, WHYDib. ❤
Forumotion will only let me set it for 7321 days. You're good until 2038 now.
Thanks, boo boo.
In light of time served and good behaviour, Pfeiffer, you are hereby paroled. Enjoy the forum.
Good Luck in your future endeavors. Very curious to hear about the changes upcoming
those where fun times ... where those the first unity elections-defeating your bid for ePotUS?
if you need an active player for your media campaign, I am available to do some sTrolling ...
... that super bored kid gif... recognized u before u sed it. (Wuz "me", a LONG time ago)
Always sensed I understood you Henry.
Ur not not only not a bad guy, you may be one of the Vbest.
Thank you, I appreciate that.
You deserved it.
Oh my gosh NO.
*Facepalm* Why oh why?
You also put political stuff on MU feed. You aint any better.
I most certainly did not.

I can help you to refresh your memory.
Yea, that's not politics. My quotes were specifically for people like you.
You must be brain dead if you think it is not. Nothing new from you. 🙂
So basically his second lie before his term even started!
Good game! 😁
When can we expect a cabinet article? Will you expose the Pfeiffer/CHS multi-connections? And, will there be Fingerguns?
Good luck
Yeah why not, I'd vote if I could. Should be more entertaining than most.
You could always come back, KS. No need to stay eIrish forever.
I like this run a lot better than the last! btw I think personally it's been a long time since most anyone in the feds hate you, but hey I may be wrong. I know I don't and I never did.
I always thought it was a stroke of good luck for the rest of us that the sfp never realized they should be your best friends lol.
anyway, full support.
that became impossible once they invited CHS in, who hates with a vengeance unparalleled in this game and yet is cheap enough to be bought for a mere compliment, he can post on the mega forum ... my last attempt with the SPF I realized that the real combatant for the SPF should be Gnilraps (personally who I like despite our frequent in-game spats) but he was to sexy (eRip wise) for cabal that still rules the SPF ... in short the cabal that rules the SPF are only e-anarchist, they are only interested in reading there own drivel, nothing more.
hi bby
gl Pfeiffer. \o
Question: Was there always a period at the end of your citizen name, or did you change it, and if so, why?
Pfeiffer was taken
interesting, thanks
Again? Vote 4ME
I’d consider myself a socialist, and am struggling to think of anything that you support that I could get behind. The last meaningful conversation we had was a year ago, where you advocated maximising all the taxes - I still maintain that is not socialism.
Where you struggle representing your ideas to the SFP is that you only speak to the socialist aspect - Freedom is in the name too. That is (as far as I understand it) about anarchism (ie personal responsibility and agency), but people also interpret it as libertarianism and transparency of information and motives.
In my experience you’re one of the more authoritarian house speakers I’ve seen in action. I don’t think you’ve done much that relates to transparency recently, although I it seems many USWP players are reflexively secretive like DMJ...
I was hoping someone would oppose Marius (I was applaud at the abuse of power too). Didn’t think it would be you. Now I don’t know who to vote for - God Emperor Trump, or Clinton II? 😕
maybe its the "freedom FROM socialists" party?
Very pithy...
The SFP is a broad church of individuals. Some are socialists. Some are anarchists. Some are libertarians. Some are troublemakers. It’s that tension between the different groups that keeps it interesting. Face it, without the SFP’s perpetual internal drama the eUSA media would look like roadkill.
applaud- as in sarcasm or appalled?
thank you for verifying my point that the SFP ruling cabal is an elitest e-anarchist movement
basically your stating that your idea of freedom is to dismantle the game mechanics themselves, which begs the question, why are you'll bothering to play a game which you inherently disagree with? Do you all enjoy exercises in futility? Especially considering your freedom is easily at hand ...
Don’t put words in my mouth. I have enough problems with auto correct doing it. Looks like you’ll [sic] do too.
Anarchism isn’t the popular understanding of it, where everyone acts like an entitled 4 year old. It’s about self government through voluntary association. If you see a need and have the skills, you step up.
Game mechanics to eAnarchism are fundamentally the same as the laws of physics to RL Anarchism. They give you a framework to work within and do awesome things with, not a reason for existing.
