My take on Chile-Australia situation.
scottty the NUKE
Dear eAustralia,
I would just like to explain a few things about the Chile - Australian situation we have. Also why it is wrong for some eAustralian citizens to fight against the treaty.
I'm a old player, probably the longest serving eAustralian in this game.
I've seen more then my share of wars, debates and pure stupidity..
Now I just want to show everyone a few stats.
On eDay 1871, Chile: 1715 fighters, 1,615,512,970 damage. Australia: 144 fighters, 202,485,540 damage
You can see how little amount of damage we do compared to them.
Now just to add something, eUSA; 2192 fighters, 3,534,052,980. During the last big battles against eChile, eUSA committed a lot of damage for us.
eUSA have joined sides with eChile and now ignore any battles that eChile and eAustralia have against each other
Where does that put us? Well, what "old allies" do we have left that will have any impact against eChile?
Argentina, can't even beat Chile on their own soil.
Greece, have 3 enemies against them right now.
Croatia, have their own problems and are currently sitting in Malaysia/Thailand.
Yeah yeah, you might say that none of them allies even fight for us. Then who wins the battles for us?
These people?
The eAussie shown on that list committed a lot of money towards these battles, and even more towards mercenaries to win it.
These people can't keep doing it. Their is no way.

I saw a few citizens commenting some rather stupid comments
So just a few questions to you guys.. Tell me, after I spent $2,000 RL money on winning 3 states to lose them the next week.
- Why should I keep spending money to win, when we'll lose our states next week anyway?
- Why should we not just join them and have few states not at risk to losing them straight away?
- Why be so blinded by Chile's numbers?
Think about it.

BECAUSE STRAYA.
Better to buy a plane ticket and head to Vancouver. I'll meet you there and buy you a beer or seven.

Common sense.
Deal, Tem!
xaxaxa
How the fuck are you lv 75, TemujinBC? 😐 ... ... I must have not got the cheat codes to this game when it was handed out.
I'm not sure, that even this article will stop hatters to hate the treaty,
However, I have to say that this is pretty damn good article🙂
I really hate those hatters.
This article has been ~Roboa~ed
Well no-one can say u didn't try.
I miss fighting with u, hope that's not far away.
Government can't afford to pay MU's 'not to fight' since this deal nets them a grand total of 1k aud a day. Can't blame MU's for still fighting in RW's, they need the patriot medals.
these treaties have to be signed sometimes and this is one of them, good article mate.
Since you Aussies think this is best for eAUS, I'll pass
BUT
many eGreeks have fought many times very hard on your side
http://prntscr.com/o6hfm
but due to lack of coordination we've failed
PS
H.Nelson, miss wolf, are eOlder than you😁)))
Scotty's statistics give his words weight.
Someone who is prepared to put their money where their mouth is
You have to listen to him
Scoty's older k0llht0s.
He's so old he made made my DB uniform a long time ago now lol.
Ones profile birthday doesn't necessarily indicate when he started playing bro.
Scotty has been banned more times than myself and Discrate put together 😛
"I really hate those hatters."
They are mad hatters Binda, they are OK. Its the March Hares you need to watch out for : )
"Where does that put us? Well, what "old allies" do we have left that will have any impact against eChile?

ARGUING THIS FOR WEEKS!
Spot on scottty .. SPOT THE FK ON MATE!
But I'm still older that Scotty, from memory by about 1 week 🙂
Oh, and good article Scotty, voted.
So what your saying is you should have bought 4k RL $$ to get all 6 states? ...
I spit out my coffee. Tell me how the hell someone spends $2,000 RL dollars on this game for a battle. Explain that to a noob - that freaking terrifies me!!!!!!
Again, the general point I've been trying to make all along - we don't have the numbers - no one doubts that I think. The other point I've been making all along - diplomacy can't be our only solution. Let the hatters hat on that one again.
Voted!

Its like at the end of "Full Metal Jacket"

Priority 2:
Fight for Chile VS. Australia in New South Wales. so are saying that this is acceptable?
Oh, good movie Louise, I watched that a few months ago for the first time in years...
"I bet you're the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a reach-around. I'll be watching you. "
encouraging it's own citizens to lift their swords against their fellow patriots is definitely the biggest cowardness and treason for it's nation not bloody good enough mate.
the reality is eaustralia lost it's respect and honour both nationally and internationally. eaustralia has been sold out big time.
Was an excellent movie witherd, there are heaps of quotable quotes : )
"half of these gook whores are officers in the Viet Cong"
and that girl Viet Cong sniper, she was my favorite character there \o/ Hang in there cr1so, we are in a bad place and not through the actions of ordinary Australians. It is not as hopeless as Scottty suggests (though spending $2000 for us & still we lost a campaign), but we can get out of it
Actually cr1so, I think eAus's biggest problems was that through some bad decisions in the past, eAus has lost the trust of friends, eChile included, but not just them.
witherd, Chile is NOT a friend, we did nothing to them that caused them to invade us. They did that for their own reasons. As for our actions losing the "trust" of friends, I am not sure what you mean by that.
cr1so what Majester is saying is correct, ignore the patronising start to his post though.
and Majester if you want people to listen to what you are saying, you should have started your post at the second sentence. cr1so has been playing the game for less time than you that's all. He is not a fool in any way, take the time to explain things to him as to an equal.
Think cr1so, cut the flag waving suicide-rally clap-trap, and actually bother to read the timeline on the agreement. Its far from perfect, but it is an alternative to bashing our heads against a wall we have been hitting for near 5 months.
It IS a good order to fight against an RW when it assures you keep the other 2 states you currently own, guarantees the release of the state you lose today tomorrow with another in the wings, and ushers you into a regional alliance that makes sense. Or you could just keep fighting in random RWs and lose everything. Suck it up and be smart. Pride is worth nothing if we kill all our citizens.
Slamming your head against a wall only gets more blood in your eyes. Be the dude and do the maths. Recruit new players so that we can start growing instead of withering away. This is not forever, but it does minimise the very real damage now.
Even though the average Aussie does 50% more damage per day than a Chilean; they outnumber us 12:1. The majority of their population are in Divisions 1 to 3. As their army matures, we will also begin to lose the only division we consistently win, namely Division 4. Facts is facts.
We knew this going into the war. We tried to rally allies before it was too late, but failed as they were caught up in their own threats or tried to play us in their own diplomatic games. We gambled on a few strategic victories which were rallied by sheer numbers and better CoT coordination, counted on support we didn't get and lost everything, and ultimately were dealt a death-blow when our biggest allies flipped sides on us.
Time to adapt or die.
You can wallow in the past and play the pointless blame game, or actively work to a viable future. Talk is cheap; what we need right now is action. All ideas welcome.
I am accepting all applications for people who want to work and be part of a solution in what is going to be a busy month.
cr1so - those orders were only given incase we actually started too win that campaign. Because if we did, it could of terminated our current NAP with eChile which would cost us 200k + being wiped out again.. If you cant see the bigger picture going on here then your patriotism has blinded your intelligence. At the very least, just disagree with the orders and fight for our ally India instead mate.
"Tell me, after I spent $2,000 RL money on winning 3 states to lose them the next week."
WTF mate? 2k RL bucks on 3 states? I don't get that... I mean, eRep might be a cool game, but WTF. No matter if you have inifinite money and you'd be real big time Rich: wouldn't there be better things to spend time and money on? xD
you sound like you have changed your tune scottty
Spending 2k on battles that are not organised and pretty much random victories is just a little silly.... glad you stopped spending cash and got yourself a go-cart Scottty.
/me dons tin foil hat to ward off hatters.....
Manrod78, you don't know scottty too well, do you? 😛
And I don't think scottty planned on spending $2k 😛 He might have been drugged.

hehehe, well.. I seem not to know him. Just tried out to figure out how on which mental state one has to be to spend 2k on 3 battles. Not that I do not spend money on this game, but 2k... gosh!
You could have bought a ticket to Santiago de Chile and kick DrKabans face personally... *gg*

Chile are like a nicer version of Argentina, which isn't saying much.
