[IBhoy] Update #3, EDEN, Supporting Allies and Yddub-gate
irishbhoy1967
Hello again Ireland, just a quick update on how things have been going so far.
EDEN
Ireland has re-affirmed our commitment to EDEN this week in the referendum on our status there. Hopefully this clears up where our allegiances lie. A lot had been made of Ireland's stance on the problems in EDEN for the past number of months and we came in for a lot of unfair criticism from some quarters in EDEN. Ireland will continue to support ideals of real brotherhood in EDEN. The sad part of this result however is that we will no longer be able to keep our MPP with our friends in Bulgaria.
UK Peace
So far our Peace with UK has been upheld on both sides. Some Resistance Wars have been opened in Scotland and Northern Ireland by medal hunters but very few UK players contest these and in fact on a couple of occasions eUKers have come to fight on our side to help honour the deal. This has meant that we can hold these regions(and the extra bonus they bring) at our ease and focus on helping our friends in Europe who are desperately in need of it at the moment. We may be opening a war with UK sometime before the end of this term to honour our side of the agreement to give UK a fruit bonus, but the focus will still be on our allies battles and we will not be contesting battles against the UK when the time comes.
Being a good ally
For over a week now Ireland has been hitting for our allies. So far almost 5,000 Tanks have been given out by the state to Irish Citizens to fight in the priority battles for EDEN. Our Campaign of the Day and the Daily Orders for the majority of our Military Units have been set in line with EDEN priority battles. We've had some hard fought victories and some crushing defeats and our allies remain under a lot pressure. There should be no question about our commitment to our allies and if every country in EDEN does the same as we have been doing this week then we(EDEN) can win more battles than we are at the moment. Now that the massive dominance EDEN had enjoyed in previous months has disappeared, superior organisation and closer co-operation is the only thing that can turn the tide, or at least hold it back. Ireland won our allies in the first place by giving our all for them when they needed it. For the past year we had been in a tough war with UK which drained a lot of damage on EDEN. We may never have gotten our country back if it had not been for our allies. Peace with UK allows us to pay back our friends for all they have given us.
MPPs
We've re-signed our MPPs with India, Cyprus, France, USA, Portugal, Singapore, Australia and the Philippines. We will also be getting back our MPP with Greece soon.
To Bulgaria
As Irish President I would like to thank Bulgaria for the year and a half they have given to the EDEN alliance and for their support in that time. I'd like to thank their players for the respectful manner in which they accepted the outcome of our referendum. It is sad that we have to part like this. But at the end of the day this is a silly game and the only thing that matters is friendship. I'm proud to call Bulgaria a friend of Ireland, no matter what happens in the future. The Spring of 2012 has seen a deep respect for each other develop and this is something that will not be forgotten, no matter what side we click silly "Fight" buttons for. So to all of Bulgaria, thank you for everything and farewell friends. Until our path cross again you will have the respect of Ireland. I think that's all that really matters here in this stupid game anyway.

Resources
We enquired about expanding our region resources with a couple of countries. At this moment it seems unlikely that either country is currently in a position to make a deal with us. Things may change sometime in the future though. For now however, our allies need us. Having to pour damage and funds into defending multiple colonies while our allies are hurting so badly would just not seem right and we can always take another look at it again if the situation changes.
Reminder to Irish Citizens for Free Tanks Daily

Strains on Irish-Indian relations
Reports have been coming in that Irish legend Yddub Emwolb has become an Indian. Other reports suggest he has actually been kidnapped by the Indians. We are insisting on his immediate release or it will be treated as an act of war against Ireland and I'll be issuing orders to all Irish Units for an all out attack on those damn Apaches.
Yddub after one too many tokes on the Peace-Pipe. He's obviously being held against his will ;-;
That's it for now. I'd like to say thanks to my cabinet and to everyone else putting in their time everyday for the cause of e-Ireland and her allies.
President
EDIT: This article needs moar Greeling. He is awesome.

Nice Update. Great job so far. x2
"I'm proud to call Bulgaria a friend of Ireland, no matter what happens in the future."
what good is a friend that will sit in the side lines and watch another friend get a beating? you claim ireland is a friend to bulgaria, but are you going to stand up for them if they are in trouble now ? this is what really counts.... actions not long words. you should say what you really mean which is "we like Bulgaria however we are watching out for our own butts and think we would be better off with off with EDEN then sticking with you in tough times. so screw you"
Nope, what I said is exactly what I mean. Ireland backed Bulgaria to the last while they were in EDEN, at every single summit and in every single vote. Just because we do not follow them out of our alliance does not mean we did not act like a good ally. Because I know for a fact we did. We have every right to stay in our alliance.
You know sweet f*ck all about Ireland and Bulgaria so piss off.
i agree you have every right to stay in EDEN however you said you claim bulgaria a friend no matter what happens in the future.... however a real friend stands up for another friend and it dont look like ireland will be doing that no longer on the battlefield where it counts... so quit playing politics and start playing man and say what you mean and mean what you say
You're obviously too simple to understand the article. Pity ;_;
"We will also be getting back our MPP with Greece soon."
I don't think that anyone from your country will be willing to fight for Greece anymore. so the mpp it's pointless. better keep the mpp that you have right now with Bulgaria. After all a huge percent of your citizens will fight for Bulgaria. That means against Greece,Turkey and maybe Romania and Ukraine in the future. I'm sure that noone in Greece wants to have mpp with someone that he doesn't want to fight for us.
You could be out of EDEN and keep the MPP's with Croatia,Usa,Ukraine,Canada e.t.c (I think that you stayed in EDEN only because of Croatia and USA.) you will also had the chance to have MPP with your beloved Bulgaria.So you could fight for them.
Being against 4 EDEN countries it means you are supporting ONE.
Just my humble opinions
P.S I hope i didn't make many mistakes
you are obviously to boy to understand man
Good article. I think the friendship with Bulgaria is strong at this time.
The same was between UK, Germany and France when UK went to pro ONE. But sitting in different allies made the friendship fade away. After some time the relations became hostile. than even a war started between France and UK resulting in occupation of UK (and being wiped a lot of time).
It will be very difficult for Ireland to stay in friendship with Bulgatria, but it is not impossible. Luckily you have no border.
Good luck!
@Greveniotis
We have an MU here that wants to put Greece as DO. We supplied a few thousand tanks last month to mercenaries to fight for Greece. EDEN members sign MPPs with each other so I think you should drop the arrogant attitude. I think you should also read the article properly i.e. the part about no longer being able to keep our Bg MPP. We've also been giving everything we could for EDEN prios this week, while Greece did not have CoD set in line with EDEN prios so please don't come here lecturing us about "supporting ONE"
I don't know. Those Apaches are tough.
needs more me
♥♥♥♥♥
Things are starting to fall in place. Now we know why yubb likes to ride horses and supports Washington in football.
@Irishboy1967
"EDEN members sign MPPs with each other"
yes you are right. but judging from the majority of your citizens (in battlefields and comments) i don't think that they will fight for Greece. read again what i wrote i don't like to repeat my self.
"no longer being able to keep our Bg MPP."
why? i don't think that someone from EDEN HQ forced you to don't sign MPP with Bulgaria. If you really wanted so much to be together with Bulgaria you could keep that MPP. I don't think that Greece or Turkey will had any objection on this.You will tell me "we are members of EDEN so we have to sign MPP with every member of EDEN" as i said if you wanted to fight for your "brother" and keep the good relations with them, there would be no reason to don't sign MPP between your nations.
"We've also been giving everything we could for EDEN prios this week, while Greece did not have CoD set in line with EDEN prios"
Now you are telling me that Greece doesn't help EDEN??? I couldn't expect to hear sth like this.
In Greece it doesn't matter where the CoD is. The leaders of MU's informs their units to fight where it is necessary.as for the simple citizens. our president announce every time where we have to fight.
"please don't come here lecturing us about "supporting ONE"
When you are fighting against EDEN countries and you are helping ONE to be successful with their plans. you are supporting one.
Personally i don't want my country to have MPP with Ireland (as you understood).
the reason? as i said "I'm sure that noone in Greece wants to have mpp with someone that he doesn't want to fight for us." I would like also to thank that unique MU that wants to put Greece as DO.
I would like to thank you for your replying.
Ireland has funded 5000 tanks this week to citizens to hit for EDEN, if they don't hit in the CoD then they don't get supplied, so how you can claim we are "fighting against EDEN countries and you are helping ONE to be successful with their plans" is a mystery. Anyone hitting against you is doing so as individuals, and there is no way that the "majority of our citizens on battlefields" are hitting against you, that is just plain bullshit. Did you go tell the Greeks who started RWs in our regions and fought against us that they were fighting for ONE?
The only reason we lost our Greek MPP was because of Greece's own decision to attack Bulgaria. Greece knew they would lose the MPP with us when they did so.
And ofc CoDs mean something. I did not say that Greece were not helping but rather that you have no right to claim Ireland is helping ONE when we are doing everything we can to help EDEN.
Alliance members have a duty to each other whether we like each other or not. That means MPPs with each other and no MPPs with countries in wars with fellow members. The fact we have been in the opposite of that situation for a few weeks now was because of Greece's own actions, not Ireland's. Ireland will fight in EDEN prios and if that means fighting for Greece then that is what we will do. That is our duty as alliance members. Ireland knows what an alliance and brotherhood is all about, unfortunately though, it seems clear from your comments here that you do not, and tbh I doubt you ever will. We don't need to be forced by someone from HQ to do our duty. We do that willingly.
You don't have to want MPP but I would hope the rest of Greece are not as arrogant as you are.
PS It's a good job you don't like to repeat yourself because everything you have said here is bullshit lol
as long as Scotland is free, I am appeased.
Good call, and as for those complaining about recent events, I think Ireland made a stand today, and are willing to work with other eden nation. Please keep in mind that we recently had a schism in Eden, It was predictable that there would some fallout.
From my perspective, these fallout are all over, and we are closer of having a sense of unity again. For all the better.
Fookin teeves best retun him!
What happened to his horse?
@Gendercrises
lol at d shite you be talking
@irishboy1967
"I would hope the rest of Greece are not as arrogant as you are."
Trust me they aren't as arrogant as I am.
"PS It's a good job you don't like to repeat yourself because everything you have said here is bullshit lol"
I don't think that my opinions are bullsht. If you don't like them there's no need to use such a word to tell me how my opinions are.
I've regret the time that i spent comenting here. i could do sth more interesting. When you don't know the others people's behavior it is better to don't contact with them (and here is my fault).
You have my word that i won't commet on your articles again so you won't see again the bullshit i wirte.
as long as Scotland is free, I am appeased. x2
When your opinion is that Ireland fight for ONE, then yes, there is every need to call you out on that bullshit.
Goodbye, won't miss you.
Ireland supporting ONE, Greveniotis? I didnt realize my country opened up battles against a previous allied country in order to "punish" them for not MPPing Turkey.. BECAUSE THAT WOULDNT BE A WASTE OF EDEN DAMAGE AT ALL HERP DERP
Spain and Poland was previous allied countries too, Seanan ; )
Greveniotis, you are generally wrong don't push it. I did not see Irish fighting against Greece; and in the minor case there were, they were REALLY few. On the contrary I saw many Russians... The same Russians that were complaining and making so much noise when Args were fighting with Turks against them. Args then, they had the balls to say "OK I'm outta Terra".
it's a good news.
i'm proud of you,Ireland!
Hail EDEN!
Good! NL is proud!

Clairvoyant, the difference being that Greece was the aggressor in this instance. In the spirit of brotherhood, Ireland did support Bulgaria's stance - yeah Greece disagreed with their stance, every state is entitled too but to go further and actually attack them for it? Damage drain - should of just let Turkey and Bulgaria blow stream off eachother, opposed to dragging the alliance into it. Totally unnecessary action.
Well, everybody did mistakes in this situation. BG (mainly), GR (stupidness), HQ(fatal). I will blame no-one more than the others. I will insist on my stance, as soon as BG was EDEN I was with them, and their right of veto. As soon as they became pro-ONE no right for them in any case. Aggression... It was an ONE member attacking a pro-EDEN member, and a second front to support the pro-EDEN member. There was no delima, even if it was stupid IMO to attack your former brothers first. But on the other hand, I saw some pms published by BG CP (even stupider than Greek one) that just showed me that it was a huge plot between the 2 of them. BG CP, used the fake NE (training war they were saying) to get BG out of EDEN for good.
Ha IBhoy! You think you can get rid of me! Think twi.....................????????..............whatafuc!.........................................................................
