Join the new world

Times are changing, and they are changing fast. There was a saying in the Marine Corps; Semper Gumby (always flexible). Well with that being said there are changes coming to our illustrious party MU. As our commander has become more comfortable since taking over the reigns new ideas have come about and adjustments of current systems have begun. While completing my daily order at an undisclosed location in Canada, I decided to hop aboard SHIELD's Helicarrier and have a little one on one time with our fearless leader, and see how he is doing.

nickbergman: So how are you this evening? Any shenanigans going on?

bigcdizzle: Oh, not too much. Working on some wedding stuff since I'm getting married in about 2 months.

nickbergman: Congrats how is that going

bigcdizzle: Haha thank you. It's... an interesting process to say the least.
nickbergman: So now that you've had some time to get more involved with things since your last interview how are you feeling about your choice to take helm of SHIELD?

bigcdizzle: I'm feeling great about it. We are slowly but surely moving in the right direction as an MU. It takes a ton of work, but it's an amazingly rewarding process.

nickbergman: That's great. We got a little insight to some changes coming regarding some of the programs within SHIELD, I.E. HAMMER, and comments regarding that directly or any other programs that may or may not be started.

bigcdizzle: Well, an announcement will go out soon about the new HAMMER changes, but what I can say is that it is being revitalized to better serve newer players. It should work more effectively, and efficiently than ever. Other than that, we have a few other programs in the works, but nothing that I can announce yet. It will however come out soon enough.... Patience people. lol

nickbergman: So we had a deployment to piss off the Portuguese in Venezuela what are some take away's you got from our first major deployment while sitting in the hot seat?

bigcdizzle: Oh, good question. To be honest, the deployment served as much as a way to gauge where the unit is at in terms of activity and efficiency, as it was to complete a goal as a group, and have fun. First of all it showed me that the majority of the MU has not been engaged enough in the past. As soon as our deployment went live, people were chomping at the bit to do something fun as a group. Secondly, it showed what we are really capable of when we put forward a little effort. On the day of our deployment, we dropped nearly 1 billion damage as an MU. which when divided by our 48 active fighters (that is of all divisions) comes out to nearly 20 million damage per person. For an MU that does not have application requirements, that is astonishing. The Deployment was an absolute success from my standpoint, and we will be doing more of them soon.

nickbergman: Any thoughts as to how we can gain more active members, or even get some of the inactive members moving in the right direction?
bigcdizzle: Well, media is the first hurdle. We've been putting out at least 1 article per week, and it has so far been working. We've grown significantly since I joined SHIELD, and most of the new members are active daily fighters. The next thing that I would like to do, is start a recruitment division of SHIELD. It would have the specific goal of finding new players, and informing them about the benefits of joining SHIELD. This plan is still only in the beginning stages, and will take a lot of development, but it is something that will have to happen eventually.

nickbergman: speaking of media how do you take your Fed Press?

bigcdizzle: two cream, one sugar.

nickbergman: Do you find it difficult to maintain a constant and specific level of horniness and pride that comes with leading the official MU of the Federalist party?

bigcdizzle: Of course not. I have been Proud & Horny since most Feds were in eDiapers. It is engrained in me so deeply that it is a part of my soul.

nickbergman: So for those newborn Feds, or eRep players how do you suggest they go about joining?

bigcdizzle: It's easy as A, B, C... Simple as 1, 2, 3. All you have to do, is come join us ingame here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/main/group-show/1741 and then request a uniform and supplies on our forum. http://fedparty.forumotion.com/ The final step is, of course, to kick ass.

nickbergman: So being you originated in EZC and it use to be the MU of the Federalist party, and now you have come to lead us in Shield, has there been any thought or talk of possibly merging EZC and Shield and a return to Federalist Party for all?

bigcdizzle: No. Absolutely not. EZC is 100% autonomous, and SHIELD is 100% Fed. The two MUs have nothing to do with each other, aside from a little bit of camaraderie back and forth.

nickbergman: Any final words of wisdom to the proud and horny out there?

bigcdizzle: Just that, to always stay Proud/Horny, and don't forget, SHIELDS UP!

Well there you have it Feds. Get involved drive your pride and horniness to it's climax, and don't turn back. For those of you that are not a member of SHIELD or the Federalist party feel free to join us at the link's above, and begin your growth into a much better person. As always we are proud , we are horny, we are Fed. Stay classy Feds. Until next time this is nickbergman with Fed Press.
