[AMD4CP] The Spamican Manifesto
AMD.
The Following is an Election Broadcast on behalf of The Real Spamican Party.
Greetings, Salutations, Welcome and Good Evening my fellow countrymen, women, and Cpt Chazbeards.
Today I bring you some news that may shock and astound, and outright disgust you.
UFC and WWE Merge in deal worth over 21 billion dollars!
In equally shocking and horrifying news, I am awake, I am alive, and I am throwing my hat in the ring to become the next president of the eUnited Kingdom.
Most of you are very familiar with who I am and my many credentials, so I will not bore you all with the details. Summarised, I am a former five time country president of the United Kingdom, many time congressman, and multi year serving minister of foreign affairs from a significant portion of the game in my almost 9 year lifespan.
More recently, I will admit, I have pretty much been napping.
Napping because of the eternal boredom if I am honest. We sort of stagnated for a good few years after lockdown. It has become more and more of the same. And I, like many of the residents of this country, accepted that as the new standard of life.
But then a man strangely resembling Peter Sellers approached me, and told me it didn't have to be that way. And I signed up to the Spamicans, re-igniting my energy, and my drive to make a difference and actually get involved.
Now I would firstly like to caveat something.
Huey George is doing a fantastic job.
He is a stable pair of hands. He is competent at what he does. And should he be re elected I will support him whole heartedly, even getting involved a lot more hands on in my role as MoFA (If he will still have me), perhaps even seeking to implement some of the things that I will describe to you here.
That said, after watching the Spamican rise during the last congress election, I do sense a need for change, and a battle against stagnation. And that is what I am here to offer you today.
An Alternative.
A New Way of Doing Things.
A Fresh Outlook.
So Without Further ado...
The Spamican Manifesto.
Firstly,
I would like to build upon the successful resurgence and climb in voter activity. I would like to introduce a non partisan scheme, called "Weaponise the Votes!"
Whilst this may sound terrifying, the actuality is quite simple. Open to every citizen of the eUK at vote times, on the 5th, 15th and 25th. You provide the government a screenshot proving that you have voted, and the government will reward you with a weapons care package. The quantity is up for discussion and we will listen to all opinions on that, but it really is as simple as it sounds.
Secondly,
I would like to look at rolling the NHS (If Select would be willing), MoED and any old activities that were covered under the MoHA, into the Department of Citizen Relations. This Department will do everything citizen related, including but not limited to;
- Messaging updates and key links to the population, including notifications of in game wall posts that they should be aware of, and a reminder of election dates, and any initiatives we are running, such as the NHS or the Weaponise the Votes scheme detailed above.
- Message regular updates from the government. As some congressmen have pointed out this term, they often miss things posted on the wall. Whereas I would like to expand upon the wall posts, I would also like this department to message citizens at least biweekly with updates on what has been done, in game, with a message notification.
- We also have had quite a few newbies to the game recently. The role of this department would be to reach out, take any questions, and potentially work towards updating some guides for new players.
Thirdly, and for now, finally,
There have been concerns recently of citizenship applications, specifically having the same naming theme, and of them all joining the same party, and being entered into congress lists immediately. Whilst not immediately concerned and I am really not trying to accuse anyone of anything here, It has become a potential concern. With a not very active population, we are rife for a potential PTO.
Based upon recent congress discussion, I would like to reform the Ministry of Foreign Affairs into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration. The additional responsibilities of this ministry would be two-fold.
-Flagging counter PTO activities and being on the lookout for anything suspicious looking to discuss with congress and cabinet,
- Beginning an agreed upon vetting process working in conjunction with congress. Whether this be a brief questionnaire we ask any new entries to fill out, the remit will be given by congress and discussed fully. The minister will be responsible for approaching any new citizenship requests, questioning them, and then providing information and a recommendation (But Not Instruction! to congress for them to make an informed decision. This will serve as an extension of what we already do, but will provide more of a guideline for what we actually do!
Thank you for reading this quite lengthy manifesto. I have genuinely not sat down and written this much since I did my dissertation, which is quite depressing really.
Just to reiterate, a vote for AMD. is not a vote of dissent or chaos.
A vote for AMD is a vote for a fresh way of doing things.
All the best,
And a huge sign of respect to Mr Huey George,
AMD.
Comments
Yes! Competition is healthy, Spam is healthy therefore Spam is the Competition!
The healthiest
Opportunity and choice. The Spamican way. I think there are some really fantastic policies and ideas brought forward here and a chance to reinvigorate this game in the eUK. Vote AMD!
Woha,. An actual manifesto is below the belt! This is a Local shop for Local people we'll have no trouble here!
I almost forgot what the word was
As a humble resident of Scotland who benefits greatly from the high weapons production bonuses that occupancy by Iran brings it perplexes me somewhat that one of the two supporters of the resistance war in Scotland is AMD. Given quite a few eUK citizens are deliberately in Scotland to take advantage of the high weapons bonuses and a conveyor belt of occupants all with high weapons bonuses have in the past been arranged by Huey how does AMD justify his actions or is a case of a Spamican who has had his chips!
I live and work in Scotland too.
And the truth there is the simple fact there is I got really brave heart and screamed FREEEEEEEEDOM whilst clicking it. In hindsight I should have known I don’t look good in a kilt.
But yeah. No cause for concern really
Buffoon
I basically rely off of Scotland. And there will reach a time where we have to reset the determination. So I’m merely ready for that. And if it was at a concernable number of supporters, I would be fighting for Iran to mine those BH medals.
So, do you have any opposition to any of my proposals?
Resetting determination in Scotland in a managed way (and one which helps secure RW medals for UK cits) is a national priority.
The spin doctor polishing the idiotic actions of a fool with his wrecking ball. A glimmer of what is to come if the eUK loses it's sense!
Are you sleepwalking again!
Then again if you hadn't supported the RW you wouldn't have left yourself open to criticism. Not a smart move.
Hey I’m happy if you criticise me on that. Because clearly you can’t find anything with my policies
I invite all criticism. Because as humans we aren’t infallible and we all make mistakes.
But as long as the content of what I’m saying I’ll do is good I’ll happily take these outside criticisms
One single term of AMD in the Presidential role would completely wreck the carefully crafted and delicately balanced web of training wars and trading relationships that Huey has so diligently built over the past two years.
For those that remember the anarchy and pain of the pre-Huey days - including the chapter when Chaz decided to give away the Presidency to hostile parties (for the LOLs) - I appeal to you to ensure that we do not go back there.
For the younger citizens who have no recollection of the pain and instability - you really do not want to go there - it is not fun!
So - collectively let us ensure that this does NOT happen - by voting for our illustrious and wise Huey (the Thoughtful) rather than AMD.
AMD has been Huey's foreign minister for years. He has played a central part in arranging and managing those wars. Big shame to see UKRP diverging with truth and reason to try and score political points yet again.
You know that AMD. is lazy and does not do anything. He even boasted about it when he was Pirate PP
AMD won't do anything as CP? Another plus point for voting for him then. I will always favour a CP who falls asleep and forgets they have buttons.
To be honest, it doesn't really matter who is elected CP as things will continue as it always has with the various people doing and arranging stuff as they would under Huey.
Except that it is Huey arranging stuff and doing stuff.
@certacito I could not have put it better myself!!
Perfectly put, Certacito. Once again I am in 100% agreement with you.
I may have seen it all - UKRP casts aspersions about TUP members and TUP agree! Hats off to CC 😜
Indeed
Luckily Chaz is in the TUP and not the spamicans who wouldn’t dream of such nonsense.
When did we decide to let go of democracy CC?
We’ve had years of stability. If not to work back to a place of democracy and stability then what was it all for?
Screenshots of votes. What an excellent way of finding out how people voted.
What's next, if you don't vote the way we like we withhold the existing fighting benefits?
I'm very confident AMD doesn't intend to look at how people vote, and you can evidence having voted without revealing who you voted for. For example, you could screenshot the vote share of someone you didn't vote for, or even screenshot yourself on the voting page before having voted, etc etc. At any rate there won't be a surveillance state whilst TRS dominate Congress!
So in order to find out who to withdraw weapon support from, AMD will bribe you with weapons? I spot a flaw in AMD's cunning plan.
The point would be it’s ran by congress neutrally with the minister of defence. Regardless of which way you vote, you get the weapons
Having just cast a vote I think the best way to do it is screenshot the vote buttons and total number of votes, then vote and screenshot the vote count having gone up. Even just screenshotting the buttons I think suffices, I don't expect many would navigate to the page and then note vote
Keith does a great job laying out who voted for what proposal in TUP and who didn't, been doing it for a long time.
You can notify congress members and the general public rn you don't have to wait till you (lose) the election. It is for the good of the country after all not some sort of meaningless promise right? We have noticed an issue with citizenship requests but it seems we wont have any new regulations other then an increase of 24 wait period since The Real Spamicans would prefer to keep the status quo. Vote For Huey and TUP to stay Prosperous!
We want to keep the status quo?
So instead vote for the same party that have been in power for two years now 😂 makes sense
I’m literally proposing reform here and a position created around immigration
The status quo would be continuing as we are and not voting for change
Yes the Status Quo as in prosperous, many training wars not taken over. If the alternative is a vacuous Brexity Trump then I would certainly prefer the status quo. Also a bit rich as AMD. is technically part of the government all rather Liz Truss.. look how that turned out!
Keith, it doesn’t make sense here.
Yigit is suggesting that the spamicans want to keep the status quo, but now you’re suggesting that we don’t?
What’s the actual argument her
“ since The Real Spamicans would prefer to keep the status quo.”
I'm confused with implying that AMD is in some way Donald Trump or Liz Trust pushing through Brexit. How is this equivalent with eRepublik? Is AMD going to have a referendum to leave Europe? Is by comparing him to Trump is he implying he (and TUP) intend to steal the CP election from AMD?
Or is Keithunder trying to imply democracy will be over if people don't vote for the establishment favourite that is Huey?
Or is Keithunder under the influence of something and cannot distinguish between real life and a crap Web based game?
Also given I’m the sitting MoFA, it would be a conflict of interest and look very power hungry of me to try to reform the citizenship system in order to make myself the person responsible for citizenship requests
Who wrote this?
Spam GPT
It's like a chat bot, but with added flavour.
To more constructively answer your question:
If you are referring to the article, erep has a handy feature where you can see the author under the title of the paper. In this case AMD.
If your question is a bit more meta, then I guess the answer would be: you did...you wrote "who wrote this?" And asked a question about the very act that you were doing at the time you were doing it.
Hope that clears it up!
I mean, you are aware that I am capable of language?
Just because I haven’t written for a while doesn’t mean I cant 😂
Got all bloody burned out from the two degrees
Funnily enough Keith, ME!
I know right? Shocked me too
No too many words of AMD.
I've got a large order of tin foil hats for a mister under first name Keith
This is definitely a AMD article - I recall him starting to write it about 5 years when he first joined the PCP. I'm sure Mr Woldy advised him to use the replace function to change "PCP" to "Spamicans" though
Nice of you all to wake up at the very least!
wow, really got the blood flowing in everyone with the article. good stuff
