my FeMU is bigger than your FeMU
as George sTrolls
Greetings America,
I’m as George sTrolls, the Vice President of your great nation.
But also important is the fact that I am the Commissioner of eUSA’s newest gaming franchise:
Perhaps many of you have played Fantasy Football, Fantasy Baseball, or (GASP!) Fantasy NASCAR. (OK, if you’ve played Fantasy NASCAR you may have a problem and you should see a counselor). But in the history of eRepublik, nobody has ever played FeMU - Fantasy eMilitary Unit.
The FeMU League (of which I am, remember, Commissioner) is a free weekly contest for all citizens of eUSA. Before I go into the rules, let me share with you some of the vocabulary we will be using to make the rules a little more clear.
FeMU - a Fantasy eMilitary Unit. 10 Soldiers whose FeV adds up to no more than $150.
Participant - any citizen of eUSA who drafts a FeMU.
Commissioner - as George sTrolls. Got it?
Soldier - any of the available eUS Citizens belonging to a Military Unit who have been assigned a FeValue.
FeV - or FeValue, a fantasy dollar value assigned to 125 Soldiers by the Commissioner each week.
Player Pool - the entire list of available Soldiers from which Participants will draft their FeMU.
Draft - the weekly process during which Participants will select their FeMU according to the FeV’s set by the Commissioner.
Budget - The total amount of fantasy dollars (not actual cc or RL money) available for a Participant to build his/her FeMU.
Here’s how it will work.
Each week on Saturday, I (the Commissioner) will release a new Player Pool which will include approximately the 125 top-damage-dealing eUS Citizens over the past 4 weeks. Each Soldier will be assigned a FeV based on his/her historical damage.
If you wish to be a FeMU Participant, you must draft your FeMU from the Player Pool, but you cannot “spend” more than your Budget. The Budget will be announced each week with the Player Pool. If I decide to increase or decrease the Budget, I will because I am the Commissioner.
You must set your FeMU lineup before the weekly reset on Monday/Tuesday. Any FeMU which is not turned in by 23:59 ert before weekly reset will be disqualified from the weekly competition. You must also indicate the total damage you expect your FeMU to produce (see “tiebreaker” below).
You may Draft any Soldiers you want onto your FeMU as long as they are in the Player Pool and as long as you do not exceed your Budget. Any FeMU which exceeds its Budget will also be disqualified from the weekly competition.
You will Draft a new FeMU each week, so if your FeMU did not win this week, there’s always next week to try again.
Your weekly FeMU score will be the total accumulated damage of your Soldiers during the week. I, the Commissioner, will use the eRepublik Damage rankings to determine damage. If one of your Soldiers does NOT appear in the top 100 of the weekly Damage board in eRepublik, he will be assigned a damage amount of 50,000 which will be added to your FeMU total.
Each week, the following prizes will be distributed to the winning FeMU Participants:
First Place - 1000 Q7 Weapons!
Second Place - 500 Q7 Weapons.
Third Place - 200 Q7 Weapons.
Tiebreaker
In the case of a tie the winner will be the Participant whose total damage estimate is closest. If that results in a further tie, the winner will be established by random number.
All decision of the Commissioner (me) are final.
But there’s more
If you want to give your FeMU a name and a logo, you may do so. You may then wish to use your ingame Newspaper to publish your FeMU Soldiers for the week, publish updates to how your team is doing through the week, publish League standings, or any other FeMU related data or information.
The best ingame FeMU Media, as determined by (you guessed it, me) the Commissioner will be awarded the following prizes:
Best FeMU Logo - awarded on the last day of each month. 1000 Q7 Weapons.
Best FeMU Article - awarded weekly. 500 Q7 Weapons.
The first Player Pool will be published Saturday, eRepublik Day 2881. Watch for it.
If you have any questions, please indicate them in the comments below. I (the Commissioner) or someone from my Commission will try to answer them in a timely manner. You can also raise your questions in our IRC room at #FeMU where you can usually find me (the Commissioner) idling. #FeMU will also be your home-base for smack-talking any other Participants throughout the week. Feel free to shout your FeMU articles in #FeMU.

anlamadım ama yine de good luck
I love the idea. The potential for cheating (ie inside info) is what makes the idea so great. I would think I'm in the top 125. I know when I'm going to heavy tank, but nobody else does. Unless they ask me. Great idea.
I am glad you see it as I have
I agree, creitzell. I also see it that way.
Can we donate to make the top prize bigger?
Bring it on.
I set the prizes so that I could sustain it over 4 weeks without breaking the bank.
Successfully transferred 400 item(s) to as George sTrolls.
Small donation for now, let's see how it runs.
I do not understand this at all.
Fantasy Football with eRep soldiers instead of quarterbacks.

I've never played Fantasy anything except with a woman, so that explains it.
So all you're doing is guessing which soldiers are gonna have a big week, but you can't just pick the top 10 because your "budget" prevents it. You have to "shop" for soldiers within your budget.
Anyway, try it for a week (it's free) and see if you like it.
If you win, I'll send you a prize.
You mean the Fantasy Money game?
That is where she spends all the money that you don't have, then leaves you for the next "game" when the collectors start calling?
She always wins that one. Not fun.

nice , but why only american can play Femu?
why every one from around the world cloud play this game on erip?!!!
I encourage your country to make it happen.
We will be keeping this league in USA.
But someone could easily do a daily league using the Top Damage leaderboard.
Damn, George I am impressed and will most assuredly draft a team....
Awesome!
Good luck
Very creative.
Awesome!
If I read this correctly I'm ineligible to be someone's "fantasy" because I'm stuck in my fyrom MU for now.
Of course, now that I think about it I would be worried if a pickle were someone's fantasy. lolololol
You need to be an american citizen but not necessarily in a american MU.
I fantasize about pickles all the time. Should I seek help?
Yes.
