[BigAnt] Summary of Acroc’s CP Term
BigAnt
He had told me a few ago in private, but hes gone public.
A TRIBUTE TO a dear friend and my mentor...
Rylde - Fortune Favours the Bold mate
I have done this in the past, summarising an individual's term as Country President. I felt more compelled this month as this individuals aims and targets mostly surrounded my party and my views. Let’s get started.
For those who don’t know, Ayame Crocodile was your CP this term.. I know but with the lack of activity and media exposure I wouldn’t be surprised to see a large number of people go.. who the fuu..
After reading this article, if you are unhappy feel free to pm he. HERE
Acroc came out early (Not literally), he set out his stall out to gain as much support as possible and he succeeded in perhaps deterring any other would be CP. Rumour was that I could be running and Acroc and TUP had painted a clear picture that we were the number 1 enemy within state.
So Acroc then broke the news, announcing his fabulous candidature (oh please no). Pretty dull in my opinion, one of them.. lots of text but not much substance. But that approach seems to be popular with the ‘Elites’ of TUP. They do after tend to support people who they can control and Acroc looked the perfect candidate.
“Instead I offer my time, activity, knowledge and connections and importantly my drive to get everything up and running at full speed and to stay at that speed for as long as is necessary.”
He certainly got off to a flyer setting up the PTO (ATO) effort on New Era. This was also the time I approached Acroc, having returned back to the game for 3/4weeks alot of things had happened whilst I was on break. I was willingly to talk, discuss and extinguish this fire. However Acroc didn’t want to listen to a word of it. My offer was simple, I know New Era.. you don’t.. let me work the situation from my side of fence. He wasn’t having any of it, a man on a Vendetta, eyes mist with hate.
He saw the perfect opportunity to end New Era. So did TUP and the ‘Elites’, they knew this would be a popular campaign after smearing lies for the last 2 months before.
Funny after Vendetta came back.. Now HE WANTS TO TALk. Too late
7/10 - PTO effort (Keyword “effort”)
Now the PTO of New Era in practical succeeded. However your overall aim of killing of the voices that stand against the ‘Elites and TUP’ failed. In Fact you only succeeded in making us stronger and more active than ever. So I would like to thank you for that, we wanted a new image you only accelerated that process.
Within 5 days Vendetta was created and stormed back to number 2. We have lost some multis, which I am very pleased about I can now see our true numbers and support. The same cannot be said for the 70% of TUP old 2009 accounts with less than 5k str.. which only appear at elections.. I will let you reflect on that.
End statement, Acroc you failed and so did your TUP ‘Elites’ and Mr Woldy just lol. V
0/10 - End Target in Ending New Era via hostile takeover and control by Mr Woldy.
“Right lets start with the very very basics.”
Seems so simple right? wrong being Country President is not easy trust me. Having been in the hot seat for 3 terms its anything but easy. So I usually give CP’s some slack, However don’t talk about basics if you cannot follow them.
Rule number one, pick a good cabinet and you can’t fail.
This Term we saw £300,000 go “missing” “stolen” who knows. According to Acroc and his Minister of Finance, he didn’t change the passwords to all our orgs (where we hold money). This showed inexperience and basically pure laziness from both the CP and MoF. Changing passwords is a pain, but you basically right off the first day of term for this reason, you transfer all assets from the old CP to the new one, passwords and all.
During my terms, I was lucky to recruit the best MoF Carlini. I was also a pain in the ass as I periodically checked cash amounts in orgs and had passwords changed on a regular basis.
Also we have seen no reports and no proof of it being returned.. funny that.
1/10 - Most basic error.
“For me there are two main focuses domestically this month.
Put simply clear communication and some fun.”
Well communication has been poor, a distinct lack of articles from all areas and this is mainly down to the CP not chasing his ministers and his team being poor. Those who have been in my government or someone like Carlini, Talon. You have rosters of when departments are due to make an article.
The Public have mainly received updates via Vendetta and UKRP articles as we see both parties gaining in membership.
NHS has been visible this month, but it has tailed off a little. Again I will defend Alan, hard job and very demanding but keep it going guys.
Fun? Anyone had any fun, Carlini, Wayne and Co setup a Tribal Wars game for a group of us to play… thats the most amount of fun i’ve had this month.. Very dull.
In fact watching the Iain Keers meltdown has been the highlight this month.. #tearsforkeers
3/10 - NHS saved you in media, Very dull term.
The Cabinet
In my opinion, Poor a shambles with elements of good.
The decision to pick iadrastos as Domestic vCP was acroc’s first error. If you are leading a PTO, you don’t troll the target. You are UK government, have some sense of respect and dignity. I warned him when he attempted to PTO New Era, he would ruin his name. He has now, and his activity is non existent since the failure..
Kapten Johnson, Never rated him.. just seems to idle in rooms. Bit like Kravenn. Having been in the position of MoFa a few times, people have suggested he has plenty experience? No thanks.
MoD - Count Drakula and Jayxm, in simple terms we have had nothing to do. NWG term fought back our lands and this month we have just supported allies. Boring really. Why couldn't we have a Training War with Germany? The weekly Norway RW is boring.
MoFa - Sir Humphrey Appleby, runs for MoFA after being inactive in government for over a year and this month runs for CP.. Funny that. Reminds me of Woldy and Jamesw. Comes into the term knowing very little. He is switched on and knows how the game works. More importantly I have seen leaks from Sirius Meetings and Apple is standing up for UK and putting our interests first. Good lad.
However that said.. Why wasn’t the job shared with NWG? Just finished a fantastic CP term, knows all alliance well, knows situation and goings on… Strange or Did TUP ‘Elites’ tell acroc NOT to pick him after DC took away TUP congress seats and Kravenn’s bless (He almost quit.. again) Vacation ANYONE?
MoF - Less said about Elvis Trout the better. Messed up big time and can’t perform a simple task of changing passwords.. Christ. I leaked it to the public and they at first tried defending. Give him some credit he was man enough to admit that he had f*cked up.
He offered his resignation.. Acroc kept him on, terrible decision and lack of leadership again. Also Where are the accounts? the reports… very very poor.
MoHA - Where are they? Dr Kawishiwi Seen nothing, heard nothing. No Fun.. no games, no articles… Poor. tied on with MoE.. massacar? you still alive mate? Also Madacaion and Madelina De Melrose educating the public apparently..
The Summary
So in summary sh*t cabinet and crap CP. MoFA Stood up for us in alliance but CP didn’t. Its time to leave this sinking ship and distance ourselves from Iain Keers who has individually killed the alliance and our relationship with a number of countries… oh dear. Future MoF, remember change the passwords.. and make reports! MoHA just be active christ sake.
Overall Score 2/10
****************************************************************
We need new blood in our governments and TUP cannot offer it. UK politics are changing because of dull, poorly organised terms like this. Want to get involved? Think you can do better?
JOIN VENDETTA - http://www.erepublik.com/en/party/vendetta-4756/1 Unlike TUP and Kravenn you will get a chance and congress medal.
Peace out.
The guy you should have voted 29 days ago.

Worst CP this year 😃
Failed PTO of New Era - Created stronger Vendetta
Lost/Stole 300k still no proof of where abouts
Poor Cabinet
Poor activity
Poor
poor
poor
I'll stop there
I don't know how you can blame acroc for "creating a stronger Vendetta" when you are the one that caused the rift.
You were the one that didn't attempt to discover who the culprit of the stolen money actually was, you just pinned the first guy you saw.
You still haven't created the gambling sector, remember that...yunno the idea you stole off of me and destroyed it within a week. Poor activity is acrocs fault my ass
Sir rex
Dont expect a reply.Idiots dont reply to comments that they have no answer to
I do feel sorry for him as his staked his whole e-rep on New Era not getting congress and failed, it was a EPIC month for us, we created a new party and reached to 2nd , picking up many new members then we got 11 seats in the congress election joint top.
Acroc should return back home to Belgium and take the rest of the PTO crew with you!
"Acroc should return back home to Belgium and take the rest of the PTO crew with you"
-You may call me V, true patriot history
155,505,769 damage for poland
Pot calling the kettle black here......
Could you say that again......in real English this time please
Go home Crocodile, you're drunk! o/ V o7
Voted V!
You've once again reminded me that Croc has failed to explain the disappearance of the stolen government funds. The forgotten password change is a little too stupid, even for him, and it doesn't explain the attempt to frame The Equalist. All I saw was an anonymous article with his picture, but we have seen no acceptance of responsibility by any party. Why did the thief feel the need to frame a dead citizen?
Excellent article by the way. You've quite effectively summarised the failure that is this government, and I have no doubt I'll see diversions and misinformation being spread as retaliation for this honest feedback.
Where did the money go? sounds like a cover up, problem is many UK players have been institutionalized to accept this goings on and the mass cheating that goes on.
A remarkably simple question, yet one that the people of the UK are afraid to ask. Why is this so?
Who are you running for CP? Are you OK with Appleby or Ragnell becoming CP?
Don't you dare talk about Tribal Wars in here... I'll send all my troops to conquer you.
Nice to be mentioned at least 🙂 thinking of you too BigAnt.
I came here for an unbiased view of the last month's CP term.
Seems I took a wrong turn.
Truth hurts, Im waiting for the day more people actually stand up and criticise bad terms
and your terms were a fantastic success?
I think not
To be fair, BigAnt's first term was fantastic because I was his MoD. It's no surprise that his other two were so bad when I was no where near.
v
Lol'd at me being inactive
So no defence for your complete failure of a PTO? Funny that
Stop leaching off the NHS iAdrastos
In all honesty...there is a little too much personal opinion in an article where things should aim to be as unbiased as possible...ergo the parts that weren't just tUP bashing were good.
I'm concerned that you keep voting your own comments, Mr. Ant.
Whilst your article contains many valid points, I'm as ever disturbed by the propaganda element. I thought we were previously clear that Acroc wasn't expected to be the best CP candidate, but is filling a space as the most trustable candidate for the job with respect to TUP's own internal issues.
For whatever other mistakes happened, he did agree to Mr Woldy's activity in the ATO and he didn't send him in with an agenda. I'm NE, and we are only forked on issues of method, it would be good for all NE and Vendetta to remember this. Since entering the party Mr Woldy has not only remained impartial, he's avoided fiddling at every opportunity. As you readily point out, I don't have the experience and sometimes I'd seek deeper council than he was willing to provide. Instead Mr Woldy gives me a Jedi'esq suggestion on how I can reach a solution through further thinking and teamwork. It would have been extremely easy to drop the odd hint that NE is a waste of time to one or all of us. Considering it's a thankless task, he's been around to provide assistance more than we could have reasonably hoped for.
So what are we really upset about? That acroc wasn't the best, or that TUP gave someone a chance to run the party other than the usual suspects. Maybe we should look to pushing forward our policies of inclusive governance before using that same idea as a stick to beat them with. What do TUP learn this month? Allowing anyone other than the most experienced of leaders will cause them to be seen not only as irresponsible, but they'll not see any benefit from opening up the party leadership.
Everything stated is the truth.. some call it propaganda.
i Dont, truth will out V
I haven't been described as jedi-esque before, has a ring to it.
Further to what Michael has to say, it ought to be be pointed out that when NE old guard were seen to be collaborating with a hostile PTO, a wide range of people were suggested as taking over. Of those who displayed an interest I was perhaps the only one who wouldn't have come in, given the party a silly name and prompted everyone to leave so I would argue that what BA claims in this article about me is biased and misinformed, as NE is still functioning and is actually experiencing a surge in activity - which is down to the people running the party not selling out the image of fairness and opportunity which NE has always tried to embody.
it's fair worse than that, sire. What you did was give this State-backed PTO of a legitimate eUK party the appearance of legitimacy.
If FaP had come in, changed the name etc, people could have clearly seen the PTO for what it was : the attempted destruction of the eUK's only real opposition because the ruling elite didn't like them or what they were doing.
Instead, with you at the helm, you added some tinsel to the turd.
You must take some blame for this.
Shame on you, King Woldy I.
It wasn't a PTO per se, the government identified a harmful element in society and attempted to surgically remove it without causing any harm to the party, and in that they succeeded.
I suppose Hitler also identified harmful elements within German society post '33 and systematically wiped them out, too. The convenient one-party state that followed was merely a coincidental by-product. Politically, the UK consists of a single, totalitarian power that creates imaginary enemies of the state in order to seize power. However, a significant number of citizens are seeing this conniving duplicity, and have flocked to our banner to restore the democratic balance.
Brow covered in sweat, Kravenn's hands tremble at the thought of not achieving his 51st congress medal.
Yes lets compare events in a game to the worlds most notorious butcher, that makes sense.
I'm sure reciting such nonsense themes helps disguise the PTO you yourself are embroiled in Luka, how long will it be til you take over V for your own purpose I wonder. How many people have you tempted over with your shouts claiming free guns if your friends move in? Your party has put a halt on immigration so perhaps you'll change your tune before long. http://prntscr.com/3oxckx
I don't see why not. TUP and Co. love making such comparisons. It's been two months, and you're still screaming 'PTO'? Our involvement will stay limited to supporting the balance of power within the eUK. TUP imports Polish voters, so Vendetta will import Serbian voters. That message only proves that I'm trying to attract more voters; it's not incriminating in any way relating to PTO. You seem to think quite highly of yourself if you think Vendetta is stupid enough to unintentionally cause a PTO.
As I've iterated a countless number of times, PTO is not an option, and the vast majority of us agree. Disguising any bad intentions would not reduce the probability of success, and it makes these futile attempts by me to convince you of this degrading if that was the case. Time will show our intentions, and until then, I'd appreciate the benefit of the doubt.
The only PTO we've witnessed so far has been that of New Era by the totalitarian state.
"It wasn't a PTO per se, the government identified a harmful element in society and attempted to surgically remove it without causing any harm to the party, and in that they succeeded." - I don't think you believe a word of that.
And more, if the ATO / PTO was successful, I'd hate to see what failure looks like xD
Oh, another mention!
Opposition is fine, it's just the way that it's done which I was against.
The big V. 🙂
Interesting perspective.
Not that i'm supporting anything you've said about Acroc but you complemented the NHS as the thing that saved the gov on the communication front but the NHS isn't run by the government so...
As Sambo says about the nhs. It is good to hear that we do a good job. If a government would like to give us some supplies we probably won't say no (unless they want to make changes).
I ❤ NHS
I am surprised that Big Ant hasn't tried to claim credit for the existance of the NHS...
I kinda did create the nhs....
and laundered cash from it iirc
What? more lies mate.. you got mud on your face..
Disgrace
I seem to remember some controversy over cash during one of your terms too, those in glass houses etc
Lol, BigAnt. Did you not see the articles I produced as MoE and just for myself? I know there weren't a laundry list of them, but hardly so few as to question my presence. Part of the problem was that I was supposed to set up an international competition.
Only one of the foreign MoE's every got back to me (Mininuns) so we lost several days there, then we lost even more as we debated what style of game the competition was to be in. After all of that, it eventually got underway (is still underway). That being said, If I ever get the office again I'm going to try things a little differently. More of it being driven by my own ideas, less by what someone else wanted me to do. I am sorry to all of the eUK that my term was not spectacular, but for it being my first time and getting no funding for anything it think it went ok (I am spending my own money + what ACroc has promised for this competition).
*ever got back to me
Wow, I suck at grammar sometimes.
you did well Massacar
Thanks Sambo... You can insult the quality of my work all you want, but I don't like my dedication being questioned. Even by BA.
ignore him he's just got a 10 foot pole up his arse because Acroc tried to PTO him and his multis
Correction... He has a ten foot Serb up his arse and not a Pole.... He is somewhat xenophobic about anyone from any of our current allies at the moment, especially the Poles...
