No fighting in the War Room.
Jimbojoy
Hi guys and gals, another update for you to get your teeth into. Once again I have been urged to keep this as brief as possible. Needs less Jimbo is the order of the day!
On EoE – Well done again for the epic battle. We're getting Poland to secure us SEoE to save draining our resources, and it'll be a far easier RW Hero medal for you chaps to chance your arm for (I seem to have picked up 2 in as many days!)
On Ireland – We were pipped to the NE last night by Ireland – I heartily blame Steve Jobs, as I was borrowing a friends Mac while mine decided to suffer a mini-heart attack, and missed out by two seconds. AT LEAST I MANAGED TO BEAT CONGRESS YOU LANDLUBBERS! Still despite this setback, we should be the only TWO MPP battle at this time, and with the might of our allies, we can get the initiative (and thus momentum) back in time for tea. The Scottish RW is currently in progress (or done if you're reading this later!) and looks to be going our way. Dig in and prepare to win it well!
On Domestics – This term I've been pleased by how well the NHS is doing in terms of the scope of the supplying, the organisation of the management – making it easier for them to get the stuff out and thus actually have time to enjoy the game – a key part of attracting and retaining great backroom staff, and also with the donations received. We need to continue with the focus and intensity that have been shown so far. A few days ago there was a break in supplies and it was a momentary lapse which happens once or twice in any government month, but was purely down to all the parties involved having a real life, and MoD team supplying hard for battles. It's just one of those things, and no big deal in the grand scheme of things. If anyone, I'll take the rap for a few hours of no food for newbs, but actually we're finding that rather than losing players we're up to grand 170 odd, so something is going right.
Linking into that we seem to have had more new players than normal join in the last 72 hours, let's hope this is a sign of a gradual increase in the recent conflict with Argentina, and focus on keeping them alive and active! To help this along I want to take a step forward, and increase the supplies we're giving out. As the major war with Argentina is all but done (we hope – they still have unlimited airstrikes like a game of Worms Armageddon!) we can look to perhaps reduce MPPs, and will be certainly less out of pocket with less supplies to buy for big battles. I'm not saying that Ireland will be a bloodless fight, but we certainly won't be shitting 30k a week.
On “Change” - I also will have an article out this week about the planned consultation about the eUK official forums. We want to welcome as many people to the debate as wish to positively contribute. So be ready to put your ideas down in words, because I want people's replies to the opening statement in the comments section. This will be important as the most upvoted will be considered most keenly – they'll be the ones that players are most looking for, regardless of whether they are currently involved or not in the offsite commuinty.
Hope this cleared a few things up,
Jimbojoy

A good CP sees his mistakes, a great one rectifies them. I'll try hard for both.
We have had forum consultation before. Those threads tend to get locked even if started by an admin. Any progress is usually lost after a few months when old habits resurface.
Until the purpose of the forums is risk free community building and discussion they won't turn back into a national forum rather than their current party forum usage.
At the moment they just seem like a way for a couple of players to act like police and assert their authority.
Hi Goku, glad to see you haven't closed your mind to this, Thanks
Posting constructive replies there right now, so I'm trying. But I know it'll be pointless. I'm a fool.
but very few people feel that way? Most forum users are happy with it all. It seems to me sometimes you are overly antagonistic in an attempt to get disciplined so that you'll be able to claim the forums are awful and unjust.
If you want to fix the forums then you could easily have applied for mod or something. It's better to fix from the inside out than from the outside in.
The mod application explicitly forbids me.
My peace offers is still on.
We'll give you your original regions and keep ours.
3 months NaP
Otherwise we'll just keep fighting and trust me you won't win.
Oh look I'm first again. Faster then all the Brits second time this week 🙂
I have a higher level than you, I should run for President
Fine, Brits, if you want an NAP, vote MUFU's comment. If you want to wipe Ireland, vote this one. If either gets huge preference, then I will look to your voices. Vote now eUK! 😉
There's a problem with ur wipe option mate, you're not capable to do it.
You keep saying the same thing bout wipe for month and a half now, RES NON VERBA!
If you really were capable of wiping us, you would've done so months ago.
3 months NAP? How many times have we been through the NaP dance with you guys and it always ends up the same way. As soon as we get attacked by someone you attack us.
"We'll give you your original regions"
With Argentina gone, what makes you think you have any choice in whether we take back our own regions?
Your constant pleas for peace show that, despite your bravado and rhetoric, you're well aware that you can't win a war against us in a fair fight.
Turns out you're delusional as well as an idiot.
Not even your home country was willing to give you a chance, looks like PTOing Ireland is about to go sour too. The sooner the real Irish community has its country back the better.
Abstaining from having sex isn't working good on ya mate.
That is true, I've been getting too much so I am unable to abstain.
Still pretending you're some kind of Irish nationalist? using the '26 + 6 = 1' and 'Tiocfaidh ár lá' phrases when you're not actually Irish at all make you look silly also.
Not what u said yday
get lost
voting a bigant comment woooo
what is the world coming to 😛
Never thought I'd see the day, either.
We'll see.
We had you wiped or most of 2011, and we can do it again if you'd like. Ireland is a piss weak country
You had us wiped in 2011, we had you in 2012 and a bit in 2013.
You were a part of the wipe in 2012 for a few months, then we had peace for the rest of it.
The wipe on us was by three countries, not just Ireland. Ireland has never
wiped the eUK on its own, or even had much success in invading.
I seem to remember the last peace deal with Ireland lasting less than a day before they decided to break it. You so funny, MUFC.
Silly MUFC, trying to trick people is for kids
(real men own up to their problems)
I feel peace with Ireland to be a joke at best, while they sit back in there slums and plot their next attack. Wipe them and be done with them
Maybe you could repost your articles into the forum section for them?
Best Jimbo CP yet \o/
needs less jimbo!
Needs more Hugh
