【jamesw for President】 Once more into the breach

ohey. Over the past 4 weeks, you've probably seen a ton of messages from me, a fair few articles, and if you use Discord, then you've seen me pestering people pretty much on a daily basis. I am not satisfied with how this term has gone, there is always room for improvement: but that's not to say this month has been awful.

Things have woken up, somewhat, and it's great to see a hunger from both new and old players. Unfortunately not much of this hunger is to help out, but people are generally open to the idea of working together and trying to improve coordination: which is better than nothing.

So my goal this month has been to try and cover for Ministers as much as possible and help out wherever I can. The vast majority of people I asked to help in ministries haven't really been around, but it's to be expected when you have 6 new players in Government: this isn't exactly the first time it's happened.

But minus the negatives: I can genuinely say that I think I've been a pretty decent President. On the international stage, we've started getting recognition from our allies for our coordination. We may be small, and we'll never be noticed or recognized as being awesome, but people do notice even halflings like us when we hit together. The time I've spent messaging everyone has lead to me not just encouraging people to get onto Discord and use the wealth of knowledge of our older players, but has also lead to people sticking around, and becoming more aware of things. The amount of gold we gave out on TG loans is triple what it was in previous months. That is progress.

As well as that, whilst I would love to see more activity from MUs, our funding has resulted in a growth of damage across divisions. Instead of being 0.8% of the world's damage, we're now ~1%. Legit bros, we made it, we are the 1%. Growing by a quarter in a month is fantastic, and part of the reason why I wish to seek another term as President. I'm active, I have what it takes to do the job well, and I feel that whilst my plans for last month on the whole have worke😛 they need time to bed in, and a period of activity and stability. Thus, I humbly submit my candidacy demand another month of buttons and spamming you all.
