The world is in for a reckoning. Very soon (the 8th of February) the manual fight button will fade into shadow and it will be replaced by the de facto Deployment feature. You may have already noticed the change in our current training wars. All our "little helpers" in lower divisions have stopped hitting due to captcha. They are bots, let's face it, they have been killing the game for some time now. Hopefully the Deployment feature will get rid of all of them and other incoming changes might make this game more livable for the youth.

This election is between two horses.

One horse is slow and gluttonous. He feeds on making a misery of the game. No purpose, he makes war for profit and self-satisfaction. There is a clear winning side, all the rest of the horses in the herd, they all graze the same as him. There is no "end game", only the short lived satisfaction of a big meal. The days of this herd mentality will end soon as eRepublik Labs shuts down bot farm after bot farm with concurrent updates of this nature.

The other horse has not given up on the true architects of version 1, /v/akistan. He is fast, quicker than the other horse. He ran with the herd a little and tried over and over again to direct them to water, but you can't keep a herd away from its unnerving desire for more meals in the prairie. This horse has decided to leave the herd and bask in the glow of the singing sands.

Come with me Pakistan. We can still rewrite the game. There must be a valuable narrative, we must know who we are and, today I am asking you to vote for me as your Country President. Unlike the other horse in the race, I want to know you for what you know yourself as, all of you so gallant, curious, and brave. Together we can face the herd and solidify our team.

Onward, to glory!
