Political Military Deadlock
Rylde
You have the political numbers.
We have the military numbers.
Whats next???
Were sick and tired of your style of leadership.
we can't stop it but we can sure's hell fight for middle ground
I will be running for MDP leadership and i will start with a policy of not supporting govt wars until MDP approved while supporting our own lulz entertainment.
That means we will be totally open to standing down all our tanks and fighters during times of war if not properly reprsented . That also means the days of your catering to the zombie voters for power looking at your logo are finished. They can still vote it but military power is stronger than political and forum power.
You sit there and create a govt with no MDP in the cabinet. Were the 2nd largest political party and the largest dealer of influence in the country.
The balls so in your court.
Cause sure's F*ck its easier to click the fight button doing what we want ignoring the govt.
We won't be ruled month in and month out by CPF supported CP's.

So you are throwing a temper tantrum and saying that if things aren't done your way, you are going make sure they don't get done at all?
GROW.. THE.. HELL.. UP..
Your constant crying and complaining is sickening the hell out of me. Why don't you grow a sack, show an ounce of pride and try to think of others for once.
You complain everyone ignores you and your party is never voted in. There is a reason for that. Stop being so damn selfish and learn to talk to people and perhaps one day you may actually find some gathering support outside of the dozen or so trolls you have holding your belt.
~Oinyo out
Rylde can't change, This strategy is in his genes.
P. Magee
it won't work?
How is this a temper tantrum?
Its facts and what will be if i get MDP leadership.
We aren't the nice guys and never will be. So why not use our strength to manipulate. course we all can't have the sack onion has
I'd call this a player strike, not a temper tantrum. Respectfully, the MDP is an important part of Canada and I wouldn't characterize the party has 'not nice'. Obviously you can use this approach, and do so successfully. It does however come at a cost to the country that we all share.
We are well overdue for a war. There is no denying that. I'm curious if we will now be simply denied a war to spite these recent actions.

blah bla blaaaaaaa blaaa blah blah, not the're not
If war puts hairs on your chest wtf happened to Oinyo?
You should be drooling with blood lol..
Rylde is voicing what a lot of people think in the way only Rylde does, you may not agree with it but you have to admire it.
Personally I think if plans for war had gone straight ahead publicly and action in place none of this would be happening, with ED's term being peaceful as of get after following your painfully dull term you can understand why people get restless, especially since there are lots of competitions we seem to be missing out on because we can't get TP DMG.
Just sayin,
I am confident this current cabinet will bring us to war.
I cant see it not happening TBH...
Well it needs to be done soon and publicly. People are being kept in the dark
So do you want in "the know"? Is that what this is about?
It would be nice to know what's going on without relying on forums and pressing for answers yes...
Oinyo's term wasn't supposed to be dull, congress said no. ED has been CP for 5 days, give him the benefit of the doubt
"Pat Harper: It would be nice to know what's going on without relying on forums and pressing for answers yes..."
YES. So much yes.
Oinyo's totally against Rylde's idea of fighting for eCanada against eNL.

Yep.
Who said that? No one 😛 I said stop giving childish ultimatums. No where did I say I didnt think a little was was needed around now.
Also use todays Screen shot.. Higher dmg numbers from todays battles 😛
Lol, now Oinyo is part of the MOB that he ridicules so much, too funny...
...or is it hairy?
Its the Hairy 😛
"your party is never voted in. There is a reason for that." - MDP received more votes than members in congressional elections... so I dont think it is fair to say everyone is ignoring them. With an MDP free cabinet all it is doing is taking away from a balance of views being presented in a documented process. It also creates the illusion that the CPF members have the best interest at heart to the eCanadians who dont care to follow the daily goings on and just check profiles for people's credentials and who was in office last time and vote for them. By keeping MDP out of the political picture they have no choice but to create a new picture that the people will notice and stand behind... hence the above article. I'm no politician but without the right mix you are wasting your warriors time and i do agree that "military power is stronger than political and forum power" - Just my 2 cents on the matter
Umbra there are two MDP members in all of the cabinet chats...
Gotta admit it's weird not to have any MDP people in the govt, as the second biggest party in the country, but also knowing how much people we have that could stand out on the national scene and probably do a better job than those chosen.
Utat and Shoi.
I don't really consider Shoi MDP to be honest. He's a cool guy, but MDP is about war, he's not. And yeah, I believe I forgot Utat
Shoi is only the guru of foreign affairs and what the f*ck is going on in the world. Any good war plan would be a lot better off with him advising. Glad to see some MDP members will cut each others throat for attention...
I'm not really cutting his throat. I know he's a great MoFA and he knows what's going on, but I really don't think he would define himself as a military guy
I think we can all agree that Shoi does a great job.
If you believe shoi is the only FA 'guru' in eCan, TheSmoke, then you must not talk to very many people. Shoi is good at what he does, for sure. He publishes great articles and has relationships around the eGlobe, but he is not the only one with connections and knowledge in this country. He's just the only one you like.
I never said he was the only one, and when you were added to Oinyos cabinet, did I say anything negative? No I welcomed you and moved onto business. Good try though 😉 What I find funny is people talking out their ass and not realizing it sounds like shit...
You can't wait another couple days? Sore about losing the elections? What is it?
Now say sorry
I don't understand?
Oh wait I do.
Sorry.
"Were sick and tired of your style of leadership."
You ran and lost. Rolo ran and lost. Maybe voters are sick and tired of those leadership styles as well.
We wear the same jersey Rylde, Team Canada. We play hockey different but the team needs both of us to succeed. If you don't want to kill penalties unless we are playing opponents that you like, that is putting yourself ahead of the team, and we both lose. So you are upset because the coach didn't put any of your friends on the powerplay? Grow up, you and your friends have a steady shift on this team and personally, I highly value the way you guys play. Everybody knows your friends will get their shot when the powerplay unit fails to produce and it is inevitable that they will fail at some point in the future.
Sabotoge is a painful path, I would have hoped that our time in the Butthurt Brigade would have taught you that much.
Personally, I'm tired of the the same old MDP guys on the CP ballot. I'd like a chance to VOTE FOR and FIGHT WITH SGTRock, Ardikus, Shoi, canadianpunk, JRC, screamingslave, Mary Chan, Claire Louise, cripes even Xander Cross is a high potential military guy.
CPF does not have a monopoly on solid, viable CP Candidates, not by a long shot, and I'd like to see some of those MDP members get a chance to shine and lead the country. There are plenty of bright spots within MDP that appeal across party boundaries, I don't speak for all CPF but I know there are plenty of CPF that would fight for an MDP CP. Broadcast a pilot episode, not a rerun.
Send your best and brightest to the CP Tournament, I know you have some, and you'll be surprised. You just may get your cake and eat it too.
Man, you shouldn't make me read such long comments early in the morning, but it was worth it. Only problem I see is that even if someone like JRC or Xander ran for CP, it would still be a "MDP leadership". I'm not convinced that they would have a better shot than Rylde or Rolo. Of course it would be new candidates, but the leadership style would pretty much be the same
I have always said that in many cases, party is more important than country here in Canada. And here we go again.
And you're right, it shouldn't be. But since some players want to play this like a game and actually have fun, while some others want to play it like it was RL, we're always gonna face those kind of problems
"We wear the same jersey Rylde, Team Canada. We play hockey different but the team needs both of us to succeed."
The way your boy Rigour tells it we're not on the same team at all.
On everything else you're just wrong. The CPF is the new DAL and the MDP is playing the role of the CPF. It doesn't matter what we try and do the horde mentality of the Zombie Vote Herd will elect Fram over TFD every time.
You may not see it that way, but neither did CitB or Scorpius. All of their actions were justified because they had "the will of the people" behind them. But the smell's a whole lot different when you're on the outside looking in.
Please splash me with cold water when I fail to recognize "fram".
I agree that CPF runs the risk of being the new DAL, there is awareness of this within CPF.
I disagree with you when you say "it doesn't matter what we try to do", because the Rolo and Rylde reruns definitely are not a breadth of options.
Your comments about CitB and Scorpius concern me because they are totally true. I will evaluate the situation here for my own good. I know for certain that I, and any party, are fallible.
Addy I totally agree. What I see is a stagnant MDP whose inner circle is reminding me of the inner circle DAL except they don't have the power outside of their party. I personally have nothing against the MDP, but I rarely see anyone come out who I think is worth voting for, or worth the risk.
What I also see is them blaming everyone else rather than taking personal responsibility for their poor showing. It is hard to be objective when you are so close to being the decision maker but perhaps this will be a wake up call.
They have been told why, it is up to them to either act upon it or not.
Fram is nea milosu.
And there's no risk of the CPF becoming the new DAL. From someone that threw rocks at both of their glasshouses you are the new DAL.
And you're absolutely right, putting Rolo or Rylde on the ballot month after month will probably never pay off, but when they're the only people that want on the ballot you're left with few choices.
This is how the MDP's CP candidate discussion goes:
"Who we running this month?"
"I don't know. But we should find someone that wants to make a serious go of it."
"Yah I'll ask around. We really need a candidate this month"
Then we go through a list of candidates, most of the names mentioned here, plus some others, and we get nothing but, "Sorry I don't have time" and the occasional "I would, but the CPF will just win anyway so why bother?"
Then by the time the 3rd rolls around Rolo and Rylde are the only ones left and it's basically a coin flip.
MDP's biggest strength is also our greatest weakness. We're filled with experienced, knowledgeable and effective players that know how the game works. This is fantastic when it comes to planning a quick strike on a region, or organizing a resistance like we did against Spain for the maritimes, But the reverse of the coin is that those same players also know enough to have absolutely no desires to be CP because the rewards (a few extra buttons and a bit of presitge) don't come close to outweighing the costs.
I've been spending a lot of time in different parties lately, and let me tell you, they're basically all the same. Every party has an 'inner circle' whether they're willing to admit it or not. If ED hadn't had a moment of temporary insanity and decided to run for CP, who would CPF have put up? You, Klop? Same guys as before. The problem is, most people who know enough to make a good CP want nothing to do with the position.
Shoi and I had a run before and lost. I can't speak for Shoi, but my RL isn't at the prime time for a CP term, heck, it's not even prime time for a congress term. If you want, I can run, pull a Wally and leave Rylde or Rolo pulling the VP strings.
The difficulty isn't finding someone that is able to be CP, but in finding someone that wants to be CP. Perhaps MDP should have a dictatorial approach in appointing a CP candidate as well.
I completely agree Addy
If it is any consolation I am planning on running next month.

I doubt I'd be a good CP 😛
You would be great, you'd just need to allocate the time for it.
Which is the hardest part 😛
Looking at the numbers, MDP has 24% of the top 5 party membership and got 25% of the overall vote for your CP candidate. CPF has 32% of the top 5 party membership and got 47% of the overall vote for CP. If your members all vote how they are told to, that means you got basically nobody from other parties to vote for the MDP candidate.
Instead of screaming injustice maybe the MDP should look at itself why it can't attract voters from other parties. Could it be your choice of CP candidates? And who is responsible for putting the candidates forth in the elections? Is it your military council?
