The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft agley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promis'd joy!
'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
So, a couple things. Media this term blows. Nobody's fault but my own. Moving on.
Secretary of Media, Artela, citing real-life issues has departed.
In her place, I am appointing Jimmy Cincinnati in her stead.
Long may he reign. Here's to hoping he can whip this Press Corps into shape and make some media happen!
War News:
So, after some back and forth with Indonesia, which turned into a weird pseudo-training war, it looks like they've given up and we'll now be marching through the country taking what's rightfully ours.
Currently, Kalimantan (https://www.erepublik.com/en/military/battlefield-new/87621) is on the table.
After Indonesia, we can go anywhere. Leave some suggestions in the comments!
DoD Updates:
Congress initially re-added a Department of Defense line item at 25k a week to fund Arm America, then decided to, instead, add a line item specifically for Arm America on the off chance that there would be any chicanery happening to funnel those funds into the USAF. You can see those proceedings and a report of the efficacy of Arm America in Public Congress (http://eusaforums.com/forum/index.php/topic,41049.0.html).
DoCA Update:
Comet Academy has renounced his US citizenship and rejoined his people in South Korea. (https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/a-letter-from-esouth-korea-2617511/1/20)
I wish him well in his endeavors and thank him for his service to the country and people of eUS.
As Co-Secretary, Gabrielz_Horn will be taking over the full responsibilities of Citizen Affairs.
That's it, folks, not really a whole lot happening right now.
I'm working on some plans for the last two weeks of the term to ramp up activity and excitement.
My transition at my new job has slowed down considerably, giving me a lot more time again to focus on eRepublik.

What comes after 2?
Australia media woke up. Unfortunately it's BS. lol
Nah, reversion to type.
Good choice for media. That should be interesting.
🙂
So there is a ninja demanding you bring in a new Sec of Media or Jimmy is the new Sec of Media?
Is he the ninja?
Mystery...intrigue...
lol

Media blows. Moving on.
It's literally the one thing you said you would improve in the last two months. Does that, objectively, make this administration a failure?
It can still be an improvement and blow.
An improvement over last month? Disagree.
I dunno. Artela actually wrote all of her article.
Technically Pfeiffer he did improve. as far as i heard he put out 3 articles during his old term he has outdone that now. how can you not improve from not trying to just a little more. And damn i rise fast in the ranks! too bad our workhorse left me in charge...lol i promise i wont fail but i have heart surgery to look forward to next month.
take this from an old man who's had eight heart attacks.. DO NOT STRESS. this game or anything in your real life. that stress sh*t will kill you.
play what's fun and feels productive and positive, and let the rest go on by.
so sh*t f**king up is the biggest news...
Pretty much.
You guys could always join us in Russia and whoop some good ol english chaps, get that reverse colonialism going on.
Did you know at the beginning of the month that you would have little time due to the new job transition? If so, why did you run again if you knew your time would be limited?
So that Pfeiffer wouldn't be CP. I thought everybody knew that...
So you thought that Pfeiffer was going to ruin the country?
[removed]
Nah, I just didn't want him to be CP. The people who voted for me thought he'd ruin the country, I guess.
LOL
Title implies you actually laid plans.
I did. I laid them to rest.
