East Midlands Local Branch

Day 666, 04:44 • Published in United Kingdom

• by Offa

Over the months

1. East Midlands has become the place to live outside London, thanks to our Q5 hospital.

2. In the last election, our population meant we got extra wild card candidates into congress.

3. It seems fitting that we the residents of East Midlands find a mechanism within eRepublik to make our views known on how eUK is run.

Yes I know we have the official eUK forum, but the vast majority of players, don't access the forums.
So my suggestion is to create an organisation for East Midlands players.

Stage 1
If you live in the East Midlands add me as a friend.

Stage 2
Please leave comments on how we should proceed in the feedback to this article

Stage 3
Will require the creation of an East Midlands organisation,
once the structure has been finalised by those willing to participate.
I am willing to put up the cash for this.

So if you live in the East Midlands, please feel free to comment

From what I can see, you have only been in the forums once since May. Perhaps you should drop by the East Mids forum now and again? We can discuss your idea in greater detail in there.

We have a vibrant community already. You have done nothing towards that, and if you are lucky enough to get congress again, which you will because of the UKRP machine, then the votes have been very badly mis-led. If you are genuine about helping the EM, go to our forums - if you make a breif appearance, I highly doubt anything will come of it. In my opinion, you dont deserve your seat.

we are currently doing all you propose

"1. East Midlands has become the place to live outside London, thanks to our Q5 hospital."

And the work done by all the council members as well as all the citizens who help to make the regional forums a vibrant, friendly place, but of course you wouldn't know anything about that now would you.

"3. It seems fitting that we the residents of East Midlands find a mechanism within eRepublik to make our views known on how eUK is run."

We have a mechanism, It's called electing congressmen who are active and listen to people's opinions, again, you wouldn't know.

And as for your proposal, like Del said, we already have an organisation, as well as companies and newspaper, all run by the EM council.

I urge the people of the East Midlands to vote for active people in the upcoming congress elections.

GGRyan Day 667, 03:07

The people have spoken - your turn Offa.

Mr Woldy Day 667, 03:52

People not on the forums can contact their current congressmen or the East Midlands Assembly should they have any issues they wish to discuss 😉

GGRyan Day 668, 09:15

I do help new players and I do put my money to them - hell, if I didnt deal houses to an awesome prfoit, i'd be gone by now.

Offa Day 668, 13:08

thats the spirit dude
'ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country'
there has to be a way of formalising what many of us do individually and this is what I wanted to open up to fellow east midlanders

GGRyan Day 668, 13:20

Fair enough. However, I still do encourage you to get in contact with the rest of us more - I'm getting plenty of newer players to go to the forums and its starting to get good.

ePocalypse Day 670, 08:25

It's great if you are helping people out but I doubt there are many contacting you directly. There are people dropping by the forums all the time who could do with your help but as you don't go on there you wouldn't be aware of it.

You can argue that lots of people aren't on the forums but have you ever heard of leading by example? We have a decent group in East Mids now who keep it active enough for people to want to join in. Perhaps if you came and joined us and encouraged others, it would be even better.

You seem to be running purely on a party basis. If your party supports you then you may well get elected again. I prefer to vote for the best candidate and would strongly consider voting for candidates from other parties to the one I am a member of. Being in the East Midlands though, I will vote with my party as Mr. Woldy is clearly the best candidate and puts all the other congressmen to shame.

I agree with you Mr Woldy is the best candidate and if the east midlands were only allowed one congressman then I would vote for him. I have voted for him in the past.

Since we are allowed more than 1 congressmen thanks to our population, it would be nice if other congressmen tried to do something different.

It does not matter if we fail, because we will all be better off from the experience
