PTO - The game of exploits

Day 1,528, 09:55 • Published in Norway Norway • by T Cherub
Hi boys and girls of Norway,

LAST MINUTE IMPEACHMENT - ANOTHER PTO MECHANISM RELEAVED

Today we see another perfect example of how the PTOers play their game. Led by the new PTO leader, nejjko, they proposed a last minute impeachment proposal on me as president. They knew the rest of the congress would be too late to reject it, so they exploited the game mechanics in order for nejjko to become the new Country President (given the fact he was #2 in the last President Election).

Freke said it: "Success in eRepublik does not come from playing it well. It relies solely on the ability to exploit its flaws."

This is how the PTOers play the game, and we recognize nejjko and his friends from his gameplay.

They tried to impeach me earlier this month, but it faile😛


Since the game doesn't prohibit the sitting congress to make proposals last minute, they made this proposal just before the Congress Election result was finishe😛


It is safe to say the vote would never get through if the rest of the Congress had a chance to vote.

Clearly this is an exploit, but the PTOers will as usual claim they are just playing the game. It is also how they play; foul.


THE CURE TO THE CANCER - INVITE MORE FRIENDS

Unfortunately, we can not rely on the game admins to restore this. There is only one cure to this plague we are infested with. That is more players, loyal to Norwegians and Norway. The PTOers have said it themselves (even directly to me), we are so few players we don't deserve to run Norway. We might never become thousands of players, but we are definitely enough players to have our Norway to ourselves. We call them PTO scum, but they are simply players looking for a eNation they can easily take over - Norway is one potential target. Let me try summarize how they got this far in Norway.

A SHORT SUMMARY - HOW WE GOT PTOED

This goes out to all the new players in Norway, so I'm going to do this section in Norwegian. The rest of you already know what happened. Serbians who are in Norway, invited by the PTOers, and don't know what the fuzz is about, comment below and I will throw in a translation.

Det har forsåvidt blitt skrevet om, både på norsk og engelsk, men jeg tar det kjapt en gang til. Det kan være litt vanskelig å forstå, fordi det handler veldig mye om hvordan spillmekanismene fungerer.

Vi har kjempet for å ha norske spillere i kongressen og som partiledere. Vi har kjempet for å ha norsk styring på politikken vår. Sent i fjor, så var der flere serbere (og en del andre nasjonaliteter) som stadig vekk kom seg mer og mer inn i kongressen. De slapp inn flere nye spillere til Norge for å skaffe seg flere hjelpere og stemmer.

Dødsstøtet kom ved novembervalget. Da gikk PTO-gruppa til Sverige og fikk hjelp. Daværende statsminister aksepterte avtalen og hjalp dem. De angrep våre regioner der vi hadde flest spillere til valg, istedet for å angripe den regionen der PTO-gruppa stilte til valg. Slik vant PTO-gruppa majoriteten i kongressen det valget. Det påfølgende statsministervalget vant LavBoris. Vi informerte EDEN om at Norge var tatt over, og da var det svært få nasjoner som ville signere allianser med oss. Deres loyalitet ligger hos nordmenn, ikke serbere som bruker skitne triks for å ta over land.

Kongressvalget i desember gikk dårlig. Det landa på dagen etter julaften, så det var vel kanskje ikke så rart. Presidentvalget i januar vant jeg. Kongressvalget i går blei stoppet fordi vi ikke hadde en eneste region.

Det neste valget er presidentvalget, og da er det kritisk for Norge at denne PTO-gruppa ikke tar plassen. Det betyr at dere må få flere spillere inn, slik at vi ikke mister Norge.

Hvis dere lurer på noe, så bare spør. Vi er mange som kan svare. Bruk gjerne også vårt forum: www.erepublik.no

Thank you for reading!

Your loyal President
