TemujinBC Finds Spiritual eFreedom

As you are all aware, on day 867 (April 5th) at approximately 23:30 erep time, I logged into the Canadian National Defense org and donated over $4000 CAD to several Canadians. This was my last act as Minister of Civil Defense, and it was done for several reasons.
"...I applaud your ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty..."
First, it was done for Teh LulZ. The people chosen to be on the receiving end of the donations represent an interesting cross-section of Canada. But now they are all linked in a funny way. We all know the answer to the trivia question: "What do JBDivinus, Scorpius, Banach, Craig Norman, Octavian_F, SaltyDog and PimpDollaz have in common?". And sixty-nine cents to Scorpius. I don't care who you are, that is funny stuff right there.
Secondly, it was done to re-kindle the notoriety of The Crimson Order (specifically the Crimson Canucks). For a long time we were known as the black sheep of Canada. We did a lot of crazy stuff, made a lot of people angry, gave many middle fingers, and asked for no quarter in return. It was a fun time and activity levels were at an all-time high. I wanted that to return for us.
Finally (and most importantly), it was done to give Canadians something to do. The events of everyday Canadian life tend to be the same old routine, with a random twist every once in a while. Octavian_F and his tl;dr newspapers, the feuds between Pimpy and Rylde, Octo and Craig, and Pimpy and Coda, GrainGate, IronGate, Coin Flips and Delaware and citizenships to "traitors"... but I wanted something different. I wanted to shake things up without really causing any damage. And I wanted to be at the center of it.
"...I applaud your ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty..."
The consequences of my actions were swift and decisive. No more eCanada forums for me, no more access to the secure channel on IRC, friends removing me like crazy, and even had a CAF member leave my gift company in protest. And now, it seems the Minister of Justice is attempting to charge me with several things and bring me to court.
My first reaction to the trial and charges was to laugh, and plot how I would beat the system. I began to put together a crack legal team, and it seemed clear I was home-free. But since that time something very strange and wonderful has occurred. Something I never would have expected. It has shaken me to my very roots, and caused me to re-think a lot of my previous worldviews.
I received a message from Adam Sutler.
Already, I can hear the skeptics laughing. "Adam Sutler is dead!", they scoff. To those of you who are too young to remember, Adam Sutler was a Canadian citizen, long since dead, who allegedly created dozens of multi accounts, and used the gold to help Canadians of all ages. He was born on day 161, and died more than a year ago, but has left a huge mark on many Canadians who were around in the Beta version. It has been rumored that he still plays the game, but doesn't reveal himself.
I was born on day 648, several months after the passing of Adam Sutler. I am still in shock that he would bring me a message of encouragement, but that is precisely what he did. I cannot reveal the entire contents of the message, but the most important part of it you are all well aware of:
"...I applaud your ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty..."
And so on this day, 874 of the New World, I proclaim myself a a member of the Sutlerite religion. I cannot know what the future holds, nor do I expect another message from Adam Sutler in the future. But from now on I will strive towards ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty. This mantra shall be true in all aspects of my life, whether as a CC Executive, a company owner, a philanthropist, or an investor. I hope this is what Sutler would have me do. I believe it is.
And so, I shall not be fighting any charges laid against me by the Minister of Justice. If the Justices of Canada can agree upon charges they feel will apply, I will accept any verdict they decide. There will be no defense. There will be no need for a trial. There will be no fighting on my behalf. I will agree to whatever recommendations they have, whether it is a fine, community service, repayment of of any non-recovered funds, banishment from Canada, or all points in between. I have faced overwhelming difficulty the past week, but I will face it no longer.
To Cypher Rahl and Tyler F. Durden: Thank you for your efforts in forming my defense. I will no longer be needing your services. You have been compensated for your time. We would have won, I have no doubt in my mind.
To Chucky Norris: Sorry about fouling up the final moments of your term. You probably deserved better, although you never did repay Rylde and I for the Delaware RW
🙂
To Derek Harlan
😛Hey, at least your term as Pres started off with a bang. I'm glad we're still friends though. Apologies won't change a thing, but I offer my sincerest to you anyways.
To Adam Sutler: There is someone very special who wishes to speak with you. If you are out there, and you are listening, please contact her. I know I shouldn't be asking requests, but this will be the only one and it is of paramount importance.
Hugs and Kisses,
TemujinBC

Is this the second coming?
Has the time finally arrived for the return of "Our Sutler"?
I bow before you "Our Sutler"!
LIES
It is the hope of all Sutlerites that The One may return. Until that day comes, we can only be applauded for our ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty.
Only the true believers shall be forgiven for they're sins when "Our Sutler" returns!
CLAP CLAP CLAP
~hyuu~
Ingenuity in the Face of Overwhelming Difficulty
... TCO's new motto?
I didn't get any of that money >🙁
Also, I received over 10% of that, and I am not mentioned 🙁
temtem doesn't love me anymore.
If you ever need anything in congress PM me and I will cause a sh*t storm about it in the threads. I've sort of shunned the forums since I was banned for that time I tried to impeach Chucky, so I understand the heat, though not like you.
For teh glorious lulz, and all her wisdoms
jbdivinus, i shall edit that immediately.
Apologies for the oversight
Uumpa Loompa Doopidee Doo!
Thorax, load up the cowtillery, ya ingrate 😉
Inspiring words from both TemujinBC and Adam Sutler.
Its been a while since I have actually read an article and it left me with an actual feeling. This article has insight and heart.
TemujinBC, I have always admired Adam Sutler. Thank you for your efforts to get me in contact with my hero. Even if nothing comes out of it I am still so happy that you have tried to connect me with him once more.
Thank you for the inspiring article, and the effort put forth to connect me with Adam Sutler. I have waited so long for a moment like this.
How come I got nothing?
😁^ Because you are Irish lol
Successful troll is successful.
"😁^ Because you are Irish lol"
Racist Pigdog.
Crazy Crimson's 😉
🙂 It was a toss-up between Sutlerism and Mizuism.
Sorry bro, I got PIE with Sutler
Cool!
Ghost in the machine, awesome! I want to know more of this Sutler.
I applaud your ingenuity in the face of overwhelming difficulty
"It has been rumored that he still plays the game, but doesn't reveal himself."
"rumored that he still plays the game"
"still plays the game"
"the game"
Also, this should have been a [CP] article.

Hey I was finally mentioned in an article, sorta.
Great article, well written, full of energy, to bad about the topic.
you know i was your best employee!
It must feel nice to know someone in eCanada cares for you, TemujinBC.
"He was born on day 161, and died more than a year ago."
I do hate to be picky, but when one speaks of someone's death, especically an esteemed someone, it's best to get it just right.
Sutler in fact died prior to June 4th, 2009 - less than a year ago, as evidenced here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/fessing-with-fidelia-issue-2--820985/1/20" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/fess[..]1/20
Hugs and Kisses, too
Crisfire: you were a helluva lot better than some of the schmoes I got working for me now 🙂 I gift em up to high wellness, then they fight and dont heal. >.<
fidelia: Thank you for sharing that.
I am both confused and delighted at this sudden turn of events.
You are very welcome 🙂

Aren't you glad I dared ya?
Saltydog: you are one of the finest men I have ever known. I hope one day you can buy me a beer.
🙂

Well then I have just the thing for you, TemujinBC. Can I call you Tem?

You may release all you have pent up in the dear little heart of yours.
gold anyone! hehehehe, who is adam?
Pent up stress has been officially released!
"This mantra shall be true in all aspects of my life, whether as a CC Executive, a company owner, a philanthropist, or an investor."
Not hard to be a philanthropist when you're using someone else's bank card. 😛
Do you have proof?

I still don't think you would have won.
Winning or losing is a matter of perspective, from my corner of the world you always win if you do the right thing.
"Our Sutler" shall return, repent your sins and all shall be forgiven.
This is the best thing the Crimson has done.
I don't care if you would have won or lost the trial, but at least you are showing an acknowledgment of your wrong doing and accepting some measure of responsability for it. Good for you.
...ok...So is it the Crimson Cult now? Are you all gonna shave your heads, wear red robes, farm lima beans in the slave pits and worship a picture of this sutler guy? You are beginning to frighten me sir.
P. Magee
*looks around for guy in red robes playing tambourines circling a fire...*
Hare Hare Sutler Hare Hare, Hare Hare Lulzna...
Well played as always, Temujin
Why are the CC attaching itself to Sutler?
"Are you all gonna shave your heads, wear red robes, farm lima beans in the slave pits and worship a picture of this sutler guy?"
P. Magee, you speak as though we haven't already been doing this. Have you seen tem lately? no hair, red robes, working in slave pits and worshipping sutler.
also tem o7 I salute you good sir even though I may have doubted you at first, I realize what you were doin was for the best (and teh lulz)
I should have waited for these stitches on my melon to heal before shaving my head. The wound is bleeding profusely now.
Nonetheless, I have no regrets.
