A Reality Some Players are Too Stubborn to Face

I win the Internets for posting a redhead
Good Evening eAustralia,
At the moment in eParliament, eAustralia's 9 remaining senators (Jeffery Skilling resigned) have a critical choice in front of them.
That choice is, do we or do we not, MPP with eChina?
Prime Minister Draim Alexander made this post in the senate chambers:
We got a request from the Chinese CP asking if we would like an MPP with them. At this point I think it may be a smart move, it obviously could put us at odds with CoT and TWO some but we have not been getting far there and I am very happy explaining to them that they couldn't expect us to sit here with no MPPs forever while they refused.
Opinions? If the senate is in general favor I would ask the speaker if we could authorize a joint vote after the discussion period (where we can propose the in game vote while the forum one is still going )
In an edit afterwards, he acknowledge he didn't run this past most of cabinet due to timing restraints.
The proposal has been meant with two different styles of opposition so far.
Those along the Xavier Griffith line of thinking, who like the idea, but a more cautious and still want to give the (taking forever) CoT Court time to make a ruling.
Then there's with the Tim_Holtz line of thinking who would prefer us to be neutral, work with CoT and avoiding angering that alliance by siding with an EDEN country.
However, there is hope!
The Green and Gold Party senators are leading the charge and making the solid argument of why we must ignore CoT and start making friends, including that of eChina.
Senator Mr Crumpets (GGP) argue
😛
We win the case, what happens? Nothing.
Elephant in the room is Indonesia. They have been proven to ignore alliance orders before and will invade Australia at any damn time they like.
This was quickly supported by GGP Party President, Senator Majester:
It makes no difference to Chile and Indo which MPPs we have. They want our land. They have taken it. Everything else is noise.
Until CoT is prepared to withdraw from Australia, MMP who you choose to make it so.
After all, Australia will not be part of CoT as long as CINZ have a say. We can fight with friends in occupied Australia, or wait with enemies in occupied Australia.
The old argument will no doubt come up from some Aussies and Crusader Carl of 'how do you feel being wiped'?
We must ALL FACE THE REALITY, eAustralia will always be under attack.
Indonesia will always be after WA and attack us when they need a morale boosting win. Chile has had the taste of power and will want to keep it. Finally, when New Serbia (NZ) get board, we are their only realistic target.
Plus here's something you guys might not have realised... this game is now geared towards WAR! Some country, somewhere, will want to attack us, because that's how the game is played!
The fact is, being neutral is not playing the game.
It kills any chance of babybooms and a number of countries won't want to side with you, because you're seen as little or of no value.
HOWEVER, but finally admitting to ourselves that we will never be accepted into the CoT alliance or be on friendly terms with our CoT neighbour (hello, Indonesia) - it frees us up to look at other options.
By signing an MPP with eChina, we accept our fate that we will be attacked, but we change our attitude as a nation.
The attitude turns from accepting the oppressors, to jumping the trenches with new (and some old) friends and saying "we ain't gonna take it no more".
Sure, we'll lose a lot of battles along the way, but their are two positive points for this nation...
1) We make new friends when we MPP with other countries - that is, we chat with their citizens/fighters on IRC and get to know them.
2) It helps a babyboom. You can advertise freely that we are fighting to be free - patriotic stuff that gets people to sign up and play the game.
An MPP with eChina brings positive. A no vote to it, keeps us in a lull with no sign of where this country is headed.
I call on the other parties represented in senate, to ask their senators to vote YES to an MPP with eChina.

I vomited a little and had to alt+f4...prick!
😃
Thanks for posting our playbook to everyone.
CH has never let the national interest get in the way of publicity.
National interest... yes the 'current National interest' has us occupied by three countries - that's really working well!
This shouldn't be a public media discussion before the CoT hearing. You should know that. By releasing this article you have made the chances of a positive out-come even slimmer. You have betrayed the trust of the people that voted you into the Senate through an act of political grandstanding.
Also I believe the opposition to your plans aren't saying no, they're saying wait. Why jump the gun & condemn your country to full & permanent occupation before exhausting all other options. You have regions atm, you're still in a better position now than you will be should the CoT hearing not go your way. Why are you in such a rush to take the last resort? I'd suggest it's because you don't think shit through.
And hurry up & be CP & call us New Serbia. I'll enjoy watching you be CP of nothing but dust.
do CoT have any intention on actually ever having a hearing. It has nearly been 2 months and NOTHING HAS HAPPENED.
I'm not saying I agree with the article, but the so called hearing is taking forever.
The voting is over, its now the HQ that will release the results. Also its only been 1 month since the problem went to the Court.
Also I call on the other party's in the Senate to oppose this motion.
~Stand with the ARP and vote NO to Rash decisions~
I stopped reading when I got to New Serbia. Butthurt actually suits u.
I love you Carl
You're only human.
I only like you carl...
You'll get there.
i like how he got shot down in senate using logical and reasoned debate so he decides to spread discussion into the game itself in a vain attempt to get some small chance of support
MC actually read the whole thing in senate again, seriously. then see what we have to lose by doing it our way then look at your way. which way is more prudent?
What we have to lose? We are already losing with this CoT plan Tim. There is no way our country will grow under this current tact.
did you read my last paragraph, read the senate thread, it states about 10 things there are to lose.
you are exactly what CrusaderCarl said, a Political Grandstander and you lose more and more support everytime you write one of these shit articles
I see people still cant accept the fact that eAUS is as dead as eAlbania.
Believe Albania, with American help has been kicking some butt lately; I would support America help our old ally Australia regain and retain it's national sovereignty. Plus, I wish America would approach China....
USA is too busy sucking up to CoT for membership. Australia will never be a member of CoT because Indo and Chile don't want us there.
MC, this would have to be the first time I have actually been seriously disappointed in your actions.
There are such things as the small picture and the bigger picture, and you have decided to look at the small picture instead of looking at the bigger picture. Small things amuse small minds. This is the article of a small mind not a big one, which honestly surprised me.
MPP with China is the big picture. It's the journey that helps us build friends. The CoT court path isolates us and keeps us stuck in our corner.
Mr Crumpets what you have said is totally, utterly completely true.
I cannot understand why what you have said is not obvious to everybody.
Unless of course it is, just the ones with barrows to push, axes to grind are loudly opposing you.
They either don't want to know or have their own agendas that are really not in Australia's interests
like the song says
Though traitors mock & cowards jeer
keep the Green & Gold flag flying here \o/
and as an Irish Citizen you clearly have Aus;s best interests at heart right?
isnt this the 2nd time you have fled because what things werent going your way?
It so happens I do have Australia's best interests at heart. I would say far more than you do. And "fled " is an emotive word. More accurate is walk away in disgust because of the machinations of people like you. I don't think its possible for Australia to recover from your efforts.
Pot Kettle Black there Tim... were you not a 'German citizen' that had Australia's best interests at heart?
no actually i served Germany because i was a eGerman, i was asked to do the job set out to me by the CP of the time as a favour and i did it.
I would love an MPP with China. CoT are a bunch of %$#@s
I like it, let's do it!
Well CoT absolutely HATES Australia, (yes, it is pathetic), so maybe China is the go. I like some Russian players but HELL, they are allied to that scum CHILE so we can forget Russia officially helping us,, good news is many Russians don't like the way we were treated so maybe we all need to make individual freindships with foreigners because they WILL come here and fight with us. CoT has one chance to convince me they don't deserve to be slaughtered. WE NEED BUDDIES, WE NEED THEM NOW.
The CoT Court will not make a decision on this till the year 2666
I can never accept being occupied, especially by Indonesia, some say, hey, make freinds with them. Wake up, we are simply incompatible with Indonesians, they are thugs and they have an axe to grind, this is all about East Timor, they will never get over that, (that actually puts a smile on my face, AVE Cosgrove).
eAustralia sounds fun. Explain? LOL!
shut up and drink a Tooheys or a hundred.
You're must be from down south because up here we don't drink that sht 😛
are they still waiting for CoT ruling? Hilarious.
the way I see it, it's better to have one MPP with China than wait for something that might never happen
Probably a wise stance, Chile and Indonesia are in CoT and CoT wont help us for that reason, CoT seems like a trap we'd never survive.
