The Laziest of Presidents
Israel Stevens
Like, I get it. I really do.
Game’s dead, no one cares, why should we bother, etc etc.
But there are some things I just can’t let go.
Also, I’m drunk. It may just be that. idk. I’m not like an expert or anything. I just work here.
But like, come on.
ONE ARTICLE?!
Are you serious?
How lazy do you have to be to only string together a few paragraphs ONCE in your entire term? ONCE!
I’m talking about our President Orikfricai (or however you spell it) of course. The guy who just announced that he was running for President again. Which was good, because most of the country thought that he had died in office.
I get it. The bar for Presidents is low. Like, un-limbo-able low. Basically touching the ground low. But like, could you maybe at least pretend to care?
All around great kid, but terrible PotUS Tenshibo managed to put together more media than this. Even during the midst of a 7 sided invasion. He still found the time, and energy to write.
You don’t even need to write well, like Aramec or Proteus. You can take the Wild Owl (Née Vanek) approach and just bluntly write about what’s happening.
It doesn’t take a lot of effort. Or time. Or ability. Or anything. It takes like nothing to be able to be considered a decent President. Especially now. But you do have to write more than 1 article.
But no. It’s cool. We got this explanation:
Media...I think I failed on my part. I definitely didn't put out as much media as I wanted. I feel ambivalently about the WHPR. I think there's always room for improvement in the Media. There's never enough and you can always have more.
Gosh darn. It turns out that YOU’RE RIGHT! You can have more media. By publishing just TWO ARTICLES! You could have had more media than you managed to produce.
Real Talk (as Tenshibo’s ghost would say):
It’s really too bad that we are going to elect this water head to another term. Because he doesn’t deserve it. To write one single article, the entire time you are President, is deplorable. It shows a lack of effort, a lack of caring, and a lack of respect for the people that voted for him. But more than that, it shows a lack of respect for the people that wanted him to run. That believed in him. That thought he would do a good job.
He let the Federalists down. He let the Country down.
But he’s your next President, because no one can be bothered to run against him.

Something about bad Presidents that makes me write articles.
Also beer. Maybe it's mostly beer.
Imgur if that's what you're using (just guessing cause none of your pictures linked) is no longer compatible with erep for whatever reason.
It is. They show for me, are they not for you?
He's right imgur images don't work in eRep for some reason. You see them because you've cashed them.
I should run so you`d write about me
Depends on what you pay me
But my articles get deleted lately
1.) Call out President for inactivity in writing only one article.
2.) Can't be bothered to accept or decline Presidential nomination on said article.
3.) ???
4.) Big Profits!
I accepted on your forum about 4 hours ago. 🙂
Also, my announcement article is also in the Top 5. #killingit #mediamogul #mediagod
I commented on your article yesterday. Look below.

i'd totally run but i already know that i'd lose
o/
I'd totally run but I just don't care anymore. :/
what the hell does rant mean?
Dude why don't you run for President?
I am not defending our current leader but like, if no one runs no one can complain.
To be fair the runner backed by the big parties already won, no matter who tries to run. Its not like we haven't had people try but if your not a candidate by the big mu in the us then you are likely going no where these days . Do not really think there is anything we can do about this its just interest dying down and people going with the herd.
Got to say think the lets let people fight for a shot at switching their resources was the dumbest thing ive seen implemented and accelerated the games death a lot, there is just a lot less activity after that. Granted the us has a ton of starting territories to get bonus from so we might be more an outlier but really shortsighted event , a little burst of activity and death to most other activity. Much like putting in the dictator option and not giving any real benefit to democracy so everyone just decided to go stick their own dictators in for defense
lolwut?
In his defense, there hasn't been much to communicate. More of a no news is good news kind of situation. But yes, more media is always a good thing.
In his defense, no one cares anymore. Not doing nothing is something USA is going to be remembered
For that and for putting high taxes to "build a solid support system for any invasion/threat coming up" - like someone even notices nowadays that USA is even here...

I recall a time when 6 articles (and certainly no reelection bid) was an inexcusable failure on that front. The game and country have changed.
I enjoyed the nod IS, glad you still write.
Including the author, apparently.
is the bar low enough for me to become PotUS yet?
Israel Stevens, your article has stirred hearts and minds, and as such you've been nominated and seconded in the WTP Party primary - do you accept?
Just wait until I'm POTUS..... I'll show you how to mail it in
