The Great British Dic. Sit.

So the eUK has been taken over by a dictatorship to keep democracy so th... wait what?
Is it just me or does this make zero sense? We have been told by the select few who decided to launch the military coup, that it must be done so we can continue to have democracy, despite elected officials now having no power.
Not only this, but the whole thing was decided undemocratically, citizens of eUK nor congress got a say or a vote on the matter.
Yes, because telling people what to do is a "discussion".
We weren't even told what was going to happen before it actually even happened, despite full information about the new mechanic being available for over a day and information that the change was going to come for weeks.
And now Ser Fartsalot wants to continue to keep a dictator in power (providing that the current rules over citizenship stay the same, but I doubt it will change).
First off, this makes the whole point of the coup void, as after 10 days, anyone is welcome to take the country for themselves. It would be at a cost of an extra 200k yes, but for someone who was that intent to take our country, it would not matter. Instead, this action only makes us look scared and weak, making us, in my opinion, an even greater target.
Secondly, Ser Fartsalot has said that the elected CP will be made dictator. The issue with this is, there is no way to enforce it. Unless someone was willing to spend 400,000cc to remove the dictator, a CP could refuse to step down and stay as the dictator. And considering he/she will be the only one with control of the country's money, it would have to be privately funded.
But actually, at the end of this article http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/fear-not-the-dictaker-is-here-to-save-us--2501077/1/20 , we see the true reason for the dictatorship, to keep people like Ser Fartsalot in power, by refusing legally elected country presidents and congress members that Ser Fartalot doesn't like, power in the country.
I would guess this also includes all citizens that Ser Fartalot has placed on his "blacklist", which he dictates and can add players without any reason or evidence of why they are a threat to the country.
Some may think that this is the only option we have to stop a foreign coup. But 200,000cc could pay for a lot of weapons, combat orders and foreign fighters to defend from a coup instead. Even if it had costed more to defend, if we successfully managed to pull it off, it would make others think twice before trying to take over us, instead of making us look weak. And I'm sure we could pay for more friends to help us, as we've seen already this month, the government is happy to pay 1,000cc a day to be "friends" with Norway.
What happened to the eUK giving our enemies an ass-kicking and watching them running off back home?
To be honest, I find this whole thing kind of ironic, a coup started to keep foreigners from power while a foreigner runs the country...

You mad you didn't get to rob the Treasury?
Sorry you are on the blacklist, which means you're also not allowed to comment on articles.
Oh look, I'm still commenting... Makes your list a joke...
A bit like yours...
'PS: Anyone that criticises me with evidence and facts will be placed on my blacklist where you will no longer be able to run for congress or CP.'
SerF was blacklisted, that must mean that SerF criticised you with evidence and facts.
I didn't say that it is the only reason you could be added to the blacklist, did I? As it's my list, I get to dictate who's on the blacklist for any reason I choose.
BTW welcome to the blacklist 🙂
The sheep have been lead like fools, you need to work out this guy is using me to fund his own ends, using illegal money to kill off congress, using scare tactics
and guess what how many parties stuck up for their members right ?> None shame on you all none of you should even grace politics no more
shame on the units that supported this coup,
You are just at the hands of big spending ser scamalot
too many in the UK are weak shame on you all !
Did chaz release an article no it was Ser liealot you have all be scammed
God Bless my British Nation !
The only fool here is you
You are a traitor to the eUK
Your opinion is null and void
Quick question, why is he a traitor to the eUK?
You cant remember Dapper leaving the uk for ireland and fighting against us?
Ok then what about him and his party letting in those serbs in order to win the CP eletions.They tried to PTO uk parties in order to gain more cz passes
What about the stolen treasury and ORG thefts when they did get in power
Don't forget when he "declared war" on the whole of the eUK in one of his tantrums
Okay, give me a recent reason why he is a traitor to the eUK? Those you listed happened long ago.
Germany was at war with us in in 1939, doesn't mean they're still trying to invade us now.
I will also point out that you mr mick cain currently hold citizenship in Poland who aren't exactly our BBF list at the moment, are they?
I'm pretty sure that makes you much more of a threat than dapper.
Welcome to the blacklist 🙂
*aren't exactly on our
Yup i still have polish cz,I never denied it,but i'm in a UK MU.always will be.
Reason being is most of my workers are RN members,who i still supply.And being the idle fucker that i am,i cant be bothered to sack them,move here and reinstate them
So does that mean you now view DC as the good guys?
You could ask the question the other way around as well...
Mick Look at my account I have never fought for Ireland I think you are getting too old for games. I ever left the uk for Ireland you are crazy! to update your old mind i was in poland all that time- get your facts right!
Lol dapper, nice attempt. You don't have TP points for Ireland due to you never being a citizen. You were however a commander of an irish mu, many of your supporters and friends moved to Ireland and you did indeed fight for Ireland and France against us. I saw it with my own eyes and I'm sure someone has a screen shot of it somewhere.
Great thing about the Internet, you can't escape your past...
I have nothing more to add,wayne said it all fool
Pluto is pushing gold and CC out of governments and game, and in some country treasures are huge amount money. Poland daily income is 120K CC so 200K is worth nothing when you can rob millions.
Pushing CC out of governments? Why am I being pushed out of governments?
The thing is, Ser Fartsalot was highly influencial in congress anyway so spending £200k of his own money to make someone else the dictator is a complete waste of money.
I think the situation comes down to this:
If you think Ser Fartsalot is an well educated player of the game then you are inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt for the time being. But if you are one of the people who has previously traded a bawwwwwling session with him them his involvement will merely re-enforce the negative opinion of him.
Personally, I am not comfortable with what has happened but I am holding back on critisism as I appreciate the reasons for the actions. It may well pan out in time that the dictator takeover is the lesser of two evils. Or that absolute power corrupts Chaz absolutely and in a month's time those supporting the action will look back with hindsight and regret their support. Certainly with the number of dictator attempts (some real and some for similar reasons to ours), it will be interesting to see how the general eWorld reacts and adjusts to the new module.
I agree... it's all slightly uncomfortable but let's give the benefit of the doubt it's only for a few days and then we will know if intentions are good.
Being pedantic with "but the whole thing was decided undemocratically, citizens of eUK", the citizens had a say in terms of fighting against the dictator's army. Had everyone opposed participated in the battles, then Chaz's takeover would have been a lot more complicated (and since the default state was to fight against it, rather than having to join specific MUs, you can hardly blame people not being able to support the "opposition").
Perhaps they won due to the fact that pretty much every player that was in the Chazbeard Yoof were incredibly strong (they even got strong foreigners to come and help them, although I do not know if they were paid to do so) and because they had the backing of Ser Fartsalot and his what seems to be unlimited money.
Not only that, but we were also under attack by France, so most fought there.
If you look at div 1, 2 and 3 which most eUK citizens are in, roughly half the battles were won, showing that there was a fairly strong opposition.
If the coup was decided democratically with each citizen having 1 vote, the Chazbeard Yoof didn't exceeded 25 players (including foreigners) during the coup, which shows that roughly 250+ citizens would of possibly opposed it.
>yoof
>incredibly strong
>I'm in the yoof
...?
Okay, *most are strong
And I was talking at the time of the coup.
And 22k for D2 isn't exactly weak...
22k is weak if you ain't two-clicking. Thankfully that's pretty much what Rob seems to do.
You have got this right you have got all the facts! Ser Farts only wants to stay in power so he can keep Bruce and my party and many others our of power he is a sick power infested freak!
If you don't care about power why are you so upset you won't be able to steak our monies again?
Well because I have never steaked the money anyways ser pratsalot 🙂
'Ser Farts only wants to stay in power'
That's why he paid 200k to put someone else in power.
Also your party will never be anywhere near power, you're deluded.

Please show where you think I say I am "butthurt".
it's all over the article. go read it up again.
you just used similar sentences to show that you are butthurt..
I would like specifics, with an explanation of why it shows I am "butthurt".
Otherwise your statement of me being "butthurt" false.
I hope new citizens won't be affected by this kind of article..
I think they are more affect by the fact the majority of players instantly brand new players as multi's and as such are usually reluctant to allow them roles in game.
