.....problem solved, threat neutralized....

Should be an interesting PP battle. Lemme grab a case of beer for the show. All for me off course.

Aw, you wouldn't share one or two beers with me, Rylde?

Just make sure to keep it in your party and in your pants gentlemen.

If your a beer drinkin lady i would for sure. Better my odds of a happy ending.

Jacobi4PP

I hope you have more up your sleeve than 1 article published 4 hours before the elections start. Good luck.

The Fedora fits up his a%% plug no worries.

That was a rather smart play on the usual 'butt plug' joke. You guys are getting better.

Jacobi?
Jacobi.

ILU

Without Rolo all we would have left for entertainment would be Rylde giving Jacobi fashion advise.

@Rylde: Actually, I think one beer is plenty for me.
@Plugson: I got my fill of butt jokes from comments on a friend's picture on facebook,
"A photo where you can see my smile and all four of my cheeks."
"That's one heck of an asset you got there."
"With an asset like this, I don't mind being the butt of a few jokes."
with 6 more hilarious butt-punny comments. Very entertaining.

"It is my intention to take the party and make it, at least for this month, a CPF affiliate party until something more productive can be decided with it."

Of course it's not bad, WE'RE doing it! I mean, we aren't THEM. THEY'RE the bad guys. WE'RE the good guys. You can trust US.

Us and them, us and them. When can this bullshit finally end and we can move forward together?

Muglack, let's even out the playing field.
You re-design MDP as "Captains of Industry Party." Randall can make CPF "The Crimson Canucks Party." Maybe the Clan Wolf PP will change over to "Praetor Party"

That way we're all on the same page, eh? That a good solution?

I'm also worried by the fact that the acting General of the CAF has endorsed Jacobi in this.

Not only for allowing the [CAF] tag in Jacobi's article (which will likely result in two-clicking CAF-MU members supporting this), but for not admonishing him for essentially politicizing the MU for one person's personal vendetta and mission.

What does the MAC have to say about their General's decision?

Why, because we hold CAF to a higher standard to make its role difficult and then ridicule and demean it on the flipside when the occasion suits us?

I was hopeful with your first article, Muglack, but it seems to me like you're rationalizing the situation. The CAF has already expressed its dislike of Rolo using the CAF name and logo. Now Jacobi has stepped up promising to remove the abuse of its name.

MAC has good reason to support Jacobi. He's had enough of the CAF party.

A less biased "we are all one and the same" line would have entailed you at least address who has created the problem of co-opting a group's well-established identity without any legitimate reason to do so. So, what's your take on the CAF Party as it is, Muglack? Just another party out to do the same job like the rest of them? Same as CPF, UPC, Clan Wolf, etc?

...or maybe the real issue that matters in the long-running drama that has afflicted eCanada is the current use of a three-letter tag in one article published by a player many others look to for guidance and sound reason.

Where is the Supreme Court when you need it.

I'm right here. Let me put my wig on.

My take on the name of the party is that Rolo does it to garner votes on election day, but it doesn't really work.

The whole thing's a joke. I don't know who we're laughing at, but we're laughing all the same.

Jacobi didn't write that what he's doing, while fundamentally wrong, is for the good of the nation. He's just doing it for the sake of doing it. He's creating an ever bigger fissure that at the end of the day he'll blame on the "other guy".

I agree with Muglack, it seems to me this is some sort of vendetta or wrought out of dislike for some individual people, with no benefit to E-Canada or E-Canadians.

Negativity breeds negativity, and further putting a wedge between parties with good ideas and great people can do nothing to further our cause.

I think all of the parties would have some good things to offer, and things that E-Canadians could get behind and different ideals should be available to serve the will of the people.

further your own goals and take down a nuisance, a good idea except i don't like jacobi's goals.
still i think eCanadains, including CAF unit members, deserve to choose for themselves so i'll go so far as to give the article a vote

If it gets rid of the abomination of the CAF name then this will have succeeded. Besides how do you think Rolo and his minion's got control of these parties. By running uplifting political campaign? Have you checked who's running for PP in Clan Wolf?

i'm 12 years old and what is this?

"Have you checked who's running for PP in Clan Wolf?"


Want me to send you the logs of EPD coming up with the idea of PTO'ing Clan Wolf and only after committing to it Wally saying he'd sign up as well so EPD could use him as a boogieman and steal it for sure?

Also, the name plays zero roll in Jacobi's plan. He didn't even mention it in the article.

What he did mention was this:

"It is my intention to deprive Rolo an opportunity to significantly influence Congressional or the Presidential elections."

Lowering yourself to the other person's level and then thinking it's acceptable by saying, "It's cool, I'm not them" isn't the way things should be done.

A PTO to Stop a PTO? confused, isnt this just jackofbi ego trip again?

@Muglack's question about the MAC and Beeman.

First, let me correct one thing: George Beeman IS the General of the Canadian Armed Forces.
Second, the MAC is a group of advisors. It's not like they have a veto on this so I don't really know why you want to know what "they" have to say.
Thirdly, as individuals every member of the CAF has a right to participate in the political module in any way they wish. This includes our General.

Fourth, "ILU" is hardly an endorsement and again, so what? If George was ordering CAF soldiers to vote for one candidate over another that'd be an abuse of his position. George showing his affection for Jacobi is not a problem.
Fifth, my personal opinion on Jacobi using "[CAF]" in his article title is that it's a bit misleading and that I'd prefer if he didn't since he isn't actually a member of the CAF. Likewise I'd prefer if Rolo didn't use the CAF as the name of his party.

I'm not endorsing Jacobi as General.
I'm endorsing him as a citizen.

Also, I make it very clear, every election day, in the MU feed, that we aren't affiliated with any party.

There's not much that can be done about either of that though so I don't see the point in making a fuss about it.
My personal opinion about why George hasn't said anything about Jacobi using "[CAF]" in his article's title is that I don't have an opinion. Again, I don't see the point in making a fuss about it.
My personal opinion about your comment is that you're trying to divert attention away from the real issue here. This isn't about the CAF.

(Wait til I'm done Beeman 😛. Nearly there.)
The story here is about two individuals vying to become president of a party called Canadian Armed Forces. This party is in no way affiliated with the CAF MU which has been in existence for far, far longer. So please, leave us out of it.

I dunno, I think Rolo should be permitted to have his own party, no matter its origins. He is eCanada's Darth Vader, what does blowing up his Death Star prove? He'll just build a new one. The Force is strong in that one.

What would politics be without a formidable opposition?

Hey Jacobi.. You are currently beating Rolo in votes...

Thats a pretty massive feat!

In eCanada, the concept of a PTO and ATO have completely washed away. The country has settled into two sides, may as well call them Red and Blue, akin to the Habs and Leafs. Neither is truly good nor bad, they are just on different sides. One team has some goons which have shown in the past that they can play dirty, but other than that it is just a game with no real victory conditions.

A leadership race like this provides entertainment value and the game needs it.

Good luck Jacobi....

...go Red or go Blue, whichever team you are on 🙂

I would agree with Chochi, do what you guys want, but please be clear on changing the name Jacobi. Either way good luck

hilarious. Just goes to show that, as much as they claim, the Axis of Boredom is no better and/or worse than the Coalition.

I always thought, that for moral reasons, the 'good' guys in eCan were above PTOing. Does this mean that there's no more 'good' and 'bad' guys? we're all just guys? (maybe a few gals sprinkled in there). I sure hope not, I don't know if I can survive in a world where it ain't black and white.

It really interests me since the AoB have always tried to paint the picture.

...of eCan being a black and white society. With us or against us. I've always advocated for 'shades of grey' (no this is not a reference to that damned book, which actually sucks by the way) and been told that it's not possible in our society. Too bad those who 'know best' were basically blowing sunshine up my arse.

Enjoy your PTO Jacobi. You've given up your 'high ground' now. I hope you're ready to battle it out down here in the muck with the rest of us common folk.

No high ground has been given, the name of the party will be changed if I win at 9am tomorrow.

If Canada was PTO'd would trying to get it back equate to the same morality as the invaders?

NO!

Was the US immoral for freeing the Phillipines from Japan?

NO!

That sort of moral equivalency is delusional.

You're assuming I'm viewing you as the 'saviour'. It all depends which side of the fence you're on. I know I'll never convince you, since your ego won't allow itself to perceive any flaw in what you're doing but from my vantage point, you've given the high ground.

So now that you've been shown to be no better than the person you were attacking you change the shape of your mission to one of liberation rather than domination.

In the immortal words of Mobb Deep, "There ain't no such things as halfway crooks."

"I always thought, that for moral reasons, the 'good' guys in eCan were above PTOing."

I'd like it noted that CW hasn't PTOed jack. I'm still waiting for my medal in the mail for honourable conduct.
...
Any day now...

I have always said in this game, that one man's PTO is a another man's election campaign.

"Axis of boredom"

Loled

Well it looks like axis of boredom no more. And perhaps this happening to the other side for a change will bring change itself.

Doubt it though.

"what does blowing up his Death Star prove? He'll just build a new one."

Well, considering he has 3 Death Stars, I think its okay to blow up the biggest one and make him downsize.

I had to vote for myself, sorry.

Waiting for my medal x2

If it's just Red and Blue now, I'm feeling the urge to go independent: Green.

The Green Party:
- stays out of inter-party political drama
- promotes the needs of basic soldiers/MU members: MPPs, stable-minimal funding, purposeful Battle Orders, cheaper guns
- places less emphasis on the needs of business operators (when conflicting with the needs of MUs), Red/Blue politicians, social roleplayers, proven trolls, and lulzers
- invites input and guidance from MU Commanders only

Go Green
