The Rise and Fall of The Real Spamicans
Betafoxtrot
At the end of 2009, The Real Spamicans were first founded by a legend, Horice G Fossil. Half way through 2023 the party achieved a historic feat by knocking The Unity Party off of their perch as the number 1 political party in the eUK. After several years at the top there’s now a new leader in town, actively representing the country and the community.
However, in recent times TRS has come under fire for our ‘antics’ and has divided the population on whether this is a good thing or in fact has nefarious purposes.
I must admit that I haven’t been playing the game in recent years and have only recently returned but I have found myself returning into some turbulent waters. Despite the bump in election turnout since TRS’s arrival and the total revitalisation of the newspaper scene, it seems as though not everyone agrees that this period of bumper activity has been a good thing. The PP’s of both TUP and UKRP, the second and third largest parties respectively, have published articles condemning the actions of our allegedly dastardly and nefarious Party Leadership. What have our leaders been doing? Well, they have been asking people to consider joining TRS!
Everything we are accused of is not only defensible but should be encouraged. The two parties spearheading attempts to describe TRS as ‘rulebreakers’, ‘demagogues’ and ‘opportunists’ are The Unity Party and the United Kingdom Reform Party. But what do they stand for if not for the activity? Why are they so agitated at the idea of having to work for members and votes?
The Unity Party are loudly fighting for the opposite of their namesake and seem to prefer to divide the country, with transparent attempts to oppose whatever TRS’ aims and goals are.
The UK Reform Party refuses to reform anything and instead supports an atrophying status quo of inactivity and disinterest.
When I left the game it was undeniable the eUK was more active and larger than it is now and that is no one’s fault, it’s just how things go, but to see so little happening in the country and to be in the middle and wanting it to stay that way is a ridiculous position for any party to be in. They say it is fine, but it is a long-term managed decline. To complain about activity initiatives, to say that it is wrong to message citizens, and to whine that others are putting in the work, is a symptom of those who are worried they have the most to lose. Of course it is far more convenient for those to write an article here and write us off as just a bunch of trolling trouble makers than it is to engage our ideas and - more importantly - engage the population. Instead of attacking TRS, they should try giving people reasons to join these once great, old parties using positivity - not the negativity they are spewing out instead.
As for the Spamicans, we believe activity is an exceedingly positive thing and are very happy we seem to have got some old gears turning. We are striving to make the eUK a more active place - against all odds - and are continuing to pursue this with party schemes such as BUPA and our publishing of ideas for policies, bounty improvements and giveaways.
As for the accusations of trolling, brigading and other things leveled at us, these things all happen in public and so I will leave it to you as to whether they are as troubling as TUKRP suggests, or in fact just the result of a party membership who’re more active and dedicated than every other party combined.
I welcome any discussions of what I have said in the comments below and would recommend any person who would like to be part of an active party who are reasonable, and have an eUK first mindset, to join our discord and have a look for yourselves.
And if you've made your mind up, join us here.
Lots of love,

That is a great shade of green. Voted!
Well said Karl
Great article!
Wait. I though the Spamicans were created by Horice P Fossil who then disappeared and leadership passed to his heartbroken brother Horice G Fossil??
The conspiracy runs deep, only the inner council really knows the truth
Horice G was the evil brother, hell bent on erasing Horice P's name from history!
The other great unanswered Spamicans conspiracy was the removal of Sir Stephen Fry as monarch before Mr Woldy was suddenly promoted in his absence.
We don't mention Stephen Fry! Woldy was and remains the one true King!

A very well thought out and presented article!
Much appreciated that a mention was giving to Horice, our dead yet spiritual leader. RIP Horice you sexy bastard!
All very true.
Certainly shaken the political map about.
V + c
Horice would probably disown what his party has become.
''Half way through 2023 the party achieved a historic feat by knocking The Unity Party (TUP)off of their perch as the number 1 political party in the eUK. After several years at the top there’s now a new leader in town, actively representing the country and the community.

my answer to this is:
ofcourse they would attack the honest ''the real spamicans'' (TRS) party.
they are so afraid that they will lose their ''precious'' power that they will attack, insult and lie against the good TRS party, simply because you guys are more active, more energetic and more helpful in the community of e-UK.
but instead of whining for losing their #1 spot in the top, they should work together with the TRS party (your party), for the good of e-UK in general!
what power bro? for the last few years all the parties have been mostly in agreement with the way the country is being led by heuy and we've been actively working with our partners to increase the effectiveness of all gov programs, we have been steadily increasing funds the gov has to spend on citizens and increasing the funds of individuals through TW and industry. everyone including trs has been benefiting from these programs and support these programs. adding to these programs are just natural order of things and claiming sole ownership of any motions to increase them is selfish and outright wrong. Can anyone honestly give any new legislation in the past few months that actually has made a difference by trs? I'll wait.
We dont really keep legislation in the eUK we have an ad-hoc model for Congress, but that has literally delivered amongst other things a rewards program for new players. Congress ring fenced the funds and the gov worked with us to figure out how to spend it. Congress has also resourced health distribution schemes - literally helping new players who have been totally neglected pre-TRS. Don't forget the social activity fund which paid out a big chunk to people running games and prizes. Congress is a 40 person catchment are for ideas that it can also choose to resource, acting like its somehow better when it is inert and does what it is told is demonstrably incorrect.
so nothing really, as I have stated the programs you have named have already been in planning or schemes already going and you have just claimed them for your own powerboost, stop the cap
I think you need to stop your own cap there 😛
its all politically correct until someone call you out on your bs, then you tie it to a bit of comedy. I see you, well played but Im sure the eUK citizenry is smarter then that and will soon see spamricanaries as the manipulators they are
I don't really know what you are talking about to be honest - you asked what Congress have done I have told you. It wasn't happening before. You just seem annoyed that of the 40 people who make up Congress some of them want to think about the buttons they're pushing, that is just the game.
we were doing fine in congress and the citizens were doing what they are doing now, there is no difference is what I am saying and what you're saying frankly, this is a game where you press buttons and things happen, I think you forget this sometimes. what happens when you constantly press buttons but nothing happens, the spam piles up. you can use that one on your next weekly meeting paper, its on me
I'm sorry that it is different and you do not like it
Wonderful article, thank you for your efforts, and welcome back!
"The UK Reform Party refuses to reform anything and instead supports an atrophying status quo of inactivity and disinterest"
Do you really believe this to be true?
Your comment is an insult and a slur against the good name of my Party
Shame on you!
What have you reformed though?
