Scrabman and ATLANTIS mk II
Habraka Abrivianius
*
Dear citizens of the New World,
As the war in Europe rages on, walls are being breached, regions are being conquered and nations are falling, the actions and intentions of the United States government are becoming more and more clear.
A long time ago, the ATLANTIS alliance was formed between the biggest and strongest countries in the world in an attempt to conquer the world for their own enrichment. Countries like Sweden, Romania, the United States, all wanted to conquer their weaker neighbours, and some of them even succeeded, if only for a while. Fast forward to today, ATLANTIS has failed and fallen against a grand coalition of individual smaller and weaker nations, but a coalition that worked together to defeat the big and strong nations in the New World.
Now, in Sweden, Romania, Poland, Croatia and Finland, it was clear who was to blame for the defeat of ATLANTIS: the less populated and thus weaker nations of Germany, South Africa, Israel, Greece, Canada, and the likes. It seems that the core nations of ATLANTIS, want to go back to the roots of their imperialistic birth; only the strongest nations can join, and the weaker ones must suffer and be enslaved.
Look at the world today; Germany is being divided between Sweden and Poland, former allies of Germany, South Africa has been allowed to fall by it's ATLANTIS allies, and the only reason Croatia and some United States soldiers started resistance wars in Greece and Israel was to divert the Turkish and American forces from fighting for Germany. Norway, once a big and powerful ATLANTIS member, has been reduced to a scrap compared to it's former glory. And guess who controls most of the former Norwegian regions now? Yep, that's right, the former Norwegian allies, Sweden and Finland.
Now, where does this put the United States in all of this you might wonder? Well, the stance of the United States is ambiguous, to say the least. One the one hand you have the overwhelming support of the general populace for the defence and rights of Germany and the German people, donating hundreds of Gold and weapons, fighting and doing hundred of thousands of damage against the Swedish and Polish invaders. I have a lot of respect and gratitude for the thousands of Americans that fought for Germany, some even against directs order from their superiors in the military.
On the other hand you have President Scrabman and his administration that will do everything in it's power to remain in the elite club of big bad bullies that rather beat up the small kid instead of standing up and defending the rights of those who cannot defend themselves. Scrabman wants to remain good friends with Sweden, Poland, Spain, Romania, Croatia, Finland and their lackeys, cause soon they will try to form a new ATLANTIS, an ATLANTIS mk II that goes back to it's root of imperialism and subjugating their smaller neighbours.
Perhaps PEACE was right after all about the ATLANTIS imperialistic pigs and warmongers?
Today, the United States is widely regarded as untrustworthy, disloyal, isolationistic, egoistic and megalomaniac. A country that signs MPP's and makes a lot of promises about defending their allies and what not, but when it matters most, the United States only helps their strong friends, instead of those who need it the most. If two friends are fighting, it is known the United States will chose the side of the stronger one and let their weaker friend perish. The United States, ladies and gentlemen, is nothing more than a fraud and an opportunistic nation. And you all have your president to thank for it.
Thank you President Scrabman!
Americans, chose your next President and Congress wisely, as it will not only determinate the future of your country, but also that of the entire world. You still have a chance to undo at least some of the damage to your reputation and your foreign affairs policy, but it will take a lot of courage, determination, willpower and patience to make right the wrongs made in the past administrations. But then again, Americans aren't afraid of big projects, are they? You have turned more seemingly impossible tasks to a success than any other nation in the world, might as well add this to your list.

You really couldn't resist stepping on all kinds of toes, couldn't you!? Do you really thing this kind of talk helps eGermany? All you're succeeding at with this sort of a rant is that you alienate friends and allies! There are many, many friends of eGermany in the eUSA. And while you did try to appease them, all you're doing with this sort of speech is to play into the hands of eGermany's enemies! And that after you just moved to eUSA yourself!
Wake up, man! eGermany has a competent government that does the best that can be done in the face of an imperially inclined and strong neighbor. You're breaking the ranks of the eGerman defense with this sort of talk. You're weakening your country! Cut it out!
"Now, in Sweden, Romania, Poland, Croatia and Finland, it was clear who was to blame for the defeat of ATLANTIS: the less populated and thus weaker nations of Germany, South Africa, Israel, Greece, Canada, and the likes."
Be nice, don't lie.
I might just vote this up so people can see what a tremendous falsifier you are.
"South Africa has been allowed to fall by it's ATLANTIS allies" ... umm I thought it was a hostile PTO to blame? eSA isn't crying foul. Let them speak for themsleves.
Gawd I'm so tired of listening to opportunistic cry-babies. "We screwed the pooch, and it's YOUR fault America." Geez.
I will definitely be choosing who I vote for carefully, and it won't be based on the whining of any foreign meddler.
You, sir, are an idiot. Get your facts right before you start wasting my time with big useless articles.
I happened to be reading my dictionary for fun today. Look what I found!
Propaganda is the dissemination of information aimed at influencing the opinions or behaviors of people. As opposed to impartially providing information, propaganda in its most basic sense, often presents information primarily in order to influence its audience. Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus lying by omission) to encourage a particular synthesis, or gives loaded messages in order to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target audience to further a political agenda.
Please get your facts straight before you write walls of text like these. It only wastes time
"And guess who controls most of the former Norwegian regions now? Yep, that's right, the former Norwegian allies, Sweden and Finland."
And it is not against their will. Its the same with Denmark. Hope no one takes this drama queen seriously.
Ok, so is anyone going to refute what is in this article or are you just going to attack the author?
Personal attacks are always more fun than rational and grounded arguments.
It's quite easy to say I'm an idiot (guess what, I can get you banned for that), a dramaqueen, or that everything I write is lied or wrong. What is more difficult though is to actually go through the effort of proving me wrong and thinking for yourselves.
Sheep.
tyrants will always fall once..
Hmm...Am I the only one who agrees?In the begining of the war I was for Sweden and Poland,'cause Germany need to be punished.But by conquering Bavaria...This fact shows us that the swedes and pols wheren't attacking to punish germans.This was clearly an imperialistic move,They have their high regions,but that was not enough...The articel is not blaming the americans...Just showing the facts.If You weren't so selfis You would see the truth behind the lines.He is not blaming anyone...just warning You.Propaganda is what Swedish do.
This article is so full of lies that I'm going to call it plain bullshit.
Habraka Abrivianius is absolutely right. It is not the American and UK people's fault. On the other hand they were honourable in doing what they can in defending Germany from a much more powerful enemies. It is the eAmerican and eUK government as well as the aggressors fault for the current state of affairs. Both the eAmerican and eUK government did nothing and appease the aggressors.
Both the eAmerican and eUK government allow eGenocide to take place, first in South Africa and soon the Germany. Two identity and nation is lost.
To the Poles and Swedes that object to his articles, If you are honourable and not imperialistic, return all of the natural German territory back to Germany and have a fair peace deal. Any German soil in the hands of non-German shows signs of imperialist intent. Prove us wrong and do the honourable thing return all of Germany to the German. Anything less is imperalistic and what you post here and else where trying to prove your case is a failure. You can say what ever you want but the world made up their minds. Only actions can convince us that you are not as bad as we are thinking of right now.
1. Scrabman made about 10k damage for Germany, and you do still jump at him
2. Sweden does not have any of the Norwegian regions. It's only Finland who got some from Norway when the Hungarian TO occured. FInd one real Norwegian who wants them back, and i'm pretty sure they'll go back to them.
3. Sweden didn't even have a mpp with SA. But it did have one with Croatia, and croatia was defended from the Hungarian invasion.
4. Who did ever blame greece, south africa, Israel etc.? It's only you who is blaming anyone for Atlantis downfall.
5. GB has a MPP with Italy, which actually might invade Germany. Do you think they should fight for you that time too? They do have mpp with Italy too you know.
PS. Sorry for any typos, it's late in Sweden.
Stop embarrassing us, Habraka.
SA would have been defended but the need to defend spain came first. I didn't see huge masses of americans migrate to defend SA either. Sweden defends all its friends even when it comes at a cost to its own ambitions. We defended croatia rather than press our advantage in germany. We haven't launched any new offensives in germany, why you can try to figure out for yourself.
"Scrabman made about 10k damage for Germany, and you do still jump at him"
Don't talke of Scrabman as if he was truly interested in helping Germany he would mobilize the government. He just wanted the Battle Hero Badge. Also Scrabman made it illegal for US military service men to volunteer in the war in Germany without resigning their commission and its benefits. Scrabman is not a hero of Germany.
@Fingerguns, Konrad, etc.:
This hogwash has been repeatedly refuted, and yet, the garbage continues to spew. I'm not going to let knaves like this govern how I spend my e-time.
If you're not willing to face the music and be pointed out as a fabricator, umm... stop fabricating? Much easier to cry about it though I suppose. And definitely expected.
Please note, not all Americans share the view of Scrabman
LOL. Great article.
MK II like Technics turntable? 🙂
Anyone that tries supporting Scrabman as an eGerman defender please add them to your list of eidiots.
Love the smell of obvious propaganda when waking up.
i don't agree with large sections of this article but the comment from Neumann about Scrabman is correct. If he was truly interested in defending Germany he would have mobilized the military with him.
His actions in Germany has more to do with personal gain.
Agree not all Americans do share the view Emperor Rick, and neutrality does seem weird when you are fighting.

This article has not been accepted by the Committee of Manliness.
How can the same person have wrote both of these articles? I dispute the entirety of this article with this one.

voted, boom
Regardless of the accuracy of this article, the corruption of Scrabman is obvious. The military could've fought and the eUS still maintain neutrality. As long as no orders were issued to attack eSweden and the gov't didn't provide weapons and wellness for the fight then technically the eUS would've remained neutral. I'm sure Scrabman realized this since he saw fit to fight in the battle anyway.
Scrabman is worrying to much about himself and his future in the eUS and not enough about representing the eUS citizens. If the eUS wants to fight for eGermany then we should, there may be consequences but we must accept responsibility for our actions.
Tread carefully Scrab, you've lost enough support already.
@ Quanah Parker
I am not fabricating anything, the following letter is a letter to an UK journalist from scrabman stating that the military must resign if they want to help the Germans. I said that the US Military can't fight in the war. That is because they are mobile and are needed for other battles that are strategically important. I am not mobile and cannot help.
.
It matters not to me what you think is "fair". The military operates under orders and those orders exist because we have opportunities to fight in important battles every day. I and my military top staff have determined that Germany is not a battle worth fighting. Those are your orders soldier (assuming you are).
.
That is why the military has been told that if they want to follow their conscience and want to fight in Germany then they may do so by resigning their commission. The military is NOT a democracy.
.
scrab
>It matters not to me what you think is "fair". I respect the decision to "stay neutral" while I disagree with it, but to force military servicemen to resign before they can act is actively preventing the strong in fighting for what they believe is right. To make matters worse, scrabman prevented the military to volunteer at their own expense and preach neutrality, we went and fight. Where do you stand sir? Neutrality? It is hard to be neutral if you are a "war hero" in two battles for the Germans. If you fight, it should be as a united movement of the US government, if not then stay in inaction. It seems a bit selfish as you can do what you want but the noble and honourable are barred from doing what they believe is right due to their pledge to the nation that they will follow orders in defense of the nation.
"That is because they are mobile and are needed for other battles that are strategically important."
Like War Games! 😛
Last I knew the National Guard and Home Guard were not mobile...
Gotta love this!
Konrad, Scrabman could actually report you for showing that conversation. It is not allowed to show personal messages without bot sides recognition and approval.
@Habraka:
you really now just one kind of propaganda, don't you?
a hammer sees every problem as nails to hit...
well its not always a good way to deal with things.
Bullying, countries being divided, picking on the little kid? WTF? This is a game. That is the point. To win. If it were every country against South Africa...because USA should help the little kid...then should we join SA and fight the world? Oh yes, then we'd win this INTERNET GAME. No ones country is actually getting split, no one is dieing, no one is losing their homes. Stop trying to make it sound like it's real life. Your taking to seriously and your just trying to bring up emotions which shouldn't exist in this game anyway.
I'm new, and honestly don't know much of anything about this game yet, but I'm not sure that this whole thing is ScrabMan's fault. You say people don't like the US now because of our President, can you provide links? I think you're propagandizing with ulterior motives, personally.
Appeasement appears to be the path of the eUSA and eUK. As Winston Churchill said after Chamberlin signed the Sudetenland over to Hitler; "You had a choice. Dishonor or war. You chose dishonor, and you will get war."
at this rate, its going to happen eventually.

@Tom Ato: Yes, it's a game. But it's supposed to simulate RL. If everyone followed your suggestions then eRepublik would be reduced to a game of Risk. That's how scrabman plays the game: like a bland game of Risk. He takes an entire element out of the game, namely moral considerations. In the end, such politics make the game far less realistic and obviously far less interesting.
@Konrad, sorry, my comment about "fabricating" was directed at Hab. Sorry for painting you with a broad brush.
@Habraka: You could at least check up some facts before publishing an article like this. Canada is twice Swedens size and Sweden hold no norweigan regions.
SA was attacked by voting corps as Peace prefer to use voters in stead of guns when they expect heavy resistance. Grecce is getting heavy support from several nations as we speak in http://www.erepublik.com/en/battles/show/6617" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/battles/show[..]/6617 Turkey never was a major issue in this german war but they are still holding Central Greece with high in iron.
Germany have a history of leaders that made their citizens suffer. I had hopes regarding Starkad's administration but he failed to keep them under control and the former leaders are still pulling to many strings in Germany. I would not blame USA's administration for the outcome of this war, it's simply another failure in leadership, foreign politics and military organization.
@Konra😛 A army only work if you follow orders. You either follow the orders, get kicked out or resign. There is NO room for politics in the army.
Is PEACE a grand coalition of individual smaller and weaker nations? Indonesia and Hungary are among the biggest nations in the world. Besides everyone knows that it is sweden's fault that ATLANTIS fell apart. Well, I guess the rest of ATLANTIS could have sided with sweden.

I still don't understand why people are complaining about the military not being able to do as they please. It's the military. You join it to help your country, and they tell you specifically when you join that if you disobey orders, you get fired. No one said you could simply join for free weapons and experience. If you sign up for any military, especially the eUSA military, then you'd better be damn well ready to follow orders.
"Konrad, Scrabman could actually report you for showing that conversation. It is not allowed to show personal messages without bot sides recognition and approval."
It is in the eUK press so I did not know was it approve by him or not. Since it was in the press, I took for granted that he approved it or he has knowledge about it etc. So if anything illegal happened, I do apologize but all I did was copy and paste from a different news article that I have read a day ago.
As to "If you sign up for any military, especially the eUSA military, then you'd better be damn well ready to follow orders." No one is arguing that people should break the law but the rules which was enacted against the military servicemen was unfair. There should be no restriction in which war to fight if you do not use the government resource. Military men/women should be allowed to fight FROM HOME not overseas, out of their personal pocket.
I am a part of the Royal Guard of eUK and regardless of training wars etc, you are free to fight in any wars from home out of your pocket as well as official wars which you will be sponsored weapons and health etc by the state.
"5. GB has a MPP with Italy, which actually might invade Germany. Do you think they should fight for you that time too? They do have mpp with Italy too you know."
GB? Of course, Sweden forgets the fact that GB hasn't existed since 1801, it's the UK now.
The MPP is a symbolism of friendship between the UK and Italy, RL allies. We have a separate treaty from ATLANTIS and PEACE to aid in defence of each other regardless of alliance.
"There should be no restriction in which war to fight if you do not use the government resource." But you also say that this is supposed to be a roleplay of real life other wise it is just a boring game of risk. Well if it is a roleplay of real life then soldiers should be kicked out of the military for fighting when ordered not too.
All of you people are on here saying that if Sweden wants any of its respect back that it will give up all lands belonging to Germany. Does that mean that they get to keep the one High grain region that Germany was supposed to give them back in the day or do they have to give that back too. you all act like germany is just an innocent little boy and Sweden is the big bully shoving him on the ground when in reality Germany slapped the ice cream out of Swedens hands first. I can understand some German citizens on here trying to defend there country but the rest of you know how all of this has gone down but you think germany never did anything to provoke this.
As for Habraka Abrivianius next time you write an article why not try and make it alot more truthful with a lot less propaganda in it.
To be honest, I have never seen an official contract regarding the 'fact' that Sweden was promised Schleswig-Holstein. And even if there is an official contract where Germany says Sweden can keep the region, that contract was made after Sweden attacked Germany the first or second time.
Sweden has invaded Germany three times in the past 13 months, for the 'lulz'. Every time they get bored, they simply conquer Germany, squeeze every last ounce of Gold out, set it free, let it flourish and prosper for a while, and then they invade again and everything starts over once more. That's my definition of a big bad bully that beats up the small, weaker kid for his lunch money.
"'There should be no restriction in which war to fight if you do not use the government resource.' But you also say that this is supposed to be a roleplay of real life other wise it is just a boring game of risk. Well if it is a roleplay of real life then soldiers should be kicked out of the military for fighting when ordered not too."
In real life a soldier has control over his personal life and his personal decisions. Granted if a soldier simply went off to another country and fought in a war when told not to, he would be discharged and probably courtmartialled. However if they choose to just support another country in their fight against another, they would probably receive no penalty. Just raising the defenses of a territory can't really be considered fighting the enemy can it?
This game isn't related directly to real life, we can't act like everything is real. If a player decides to raise the defenses of Germany then he technically isn't attacking Sweden and therefore isn't violating the neutrality pact. So I stand by my belief that Scrabman's orders were not within his power to make and therefore a misuse of his power.
I will vote this up so that people can see just what a person you are.
