Good Bye and Good Luck

Greetings Fellow Americans and Federalists,

It is with a heavy heart that I announce that I hereby concede the Party President race to MourningStar. I believe that MourningStar will do a great job leading the party. Unfortunately you won’t see me serving in MourningStar’s administration. You also will no longer see me as a member of the Federalist Party. Lastly you will no longer see me playing the game.

This is not a rage quit article. I am not pissed off at the admins. I have never played this game for the game. The game has always sucked. I play this game for the people. I loved the people in the TC. I loved the people in Congress. But mostly I love the people of the Federalist Party. As I said this is not a rage quit article. I am not mad that I didn’t get elected. In fact I expected it, I mean I have ran 10 times and it has never gone in my favor.

Many of you may feel sideswiped by this news. But I assure you it was planned. I talked to Gnilraps, Karabeth, and Firesand about what would happen if I lost. I was planning one month as PP if I won this month. Sadly that did not happen. The truth is that this came about after the last congressional elections. My girlfriend drove 250 miles to see me. Because I was so devoted to our party I spent 6 hours organizing elections instead of spending time with her. At that point I realized I was too invested in our great party and this stupid game that I hate. I made her a deal. I would fulfill my life long eLife dream this month as Federalist Party President or as of the 16th I would no longer play. I am donating my entire treasury to the Federalist Party. This includes gold and USD. I would like these funds to be used for recruitment and retention as well as political items such as moving tickets. In addition I will be transferring my entire inventory of Q1 food to EZC. It should feed about one soldier 🙂

I will continue to answer forum pm’s for the next 3 days as well as in-game mail. I will also be around IRC for the next 3 days. After that I will check into IRC occasionally. But will be at this next Federalist IRC party for sure. I will also appear on the 25th for my last ever mobile voting for the party.

Thank you all for a great eLife. But as I approach two years in this game it’s time that I return to real life. It’s been a good ride and please if you have my email keep in touch. If you want it please ask. I wanna know all the retarded changes that the admins think up so don’t skimp on the details when I check in.

Good Bye and Good Luck!
