Hello again everyone!
Today's article will be about 3 things.
1. My Dail run on the 25th
2. An idea that I had, tell me what you think of it.
3. A big thank you to all the Greeks and Romper who helped us push back the UK
1. I would like to take this time to officially announce my run for the Dail on May 25th. I believe I would be a good help for Dail, and all of eIreland. In RL I am a college student majoring in economics and finance, so I know about the economy and have ideas of improving it that I would like to discuss with the Dail members. I have been a dedicated soldier of eIreland and her allies. If you want more information about my military career, my first article http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/first-article1-1772811/1/20 is here. My political career has not been too extensive; I am currently Deputy Minister of New Citizens, due to President Cousteau's regrettable impeachment. I am always open to suggestions, and I will do my very best to help our country. As you read the next section, you will see that I have a lot of (good?) ideas. And I always am honest with everyone (I know, honest politician, oxymoron, yea yea…) If you elect me, I promise to have my ear to the ground and do what is right for Ireland.

2. My idea is of one regarding the Market place. A lot of citizens need money now, and cannot wait for people to buy their goods in the market. I have a solution; just not sure it will work. What if I bought somebody goods that needed the money ASAP for a few, say .03 less IEP of the market price at that time. Then, I will sell it. That way they get the money, and I am protected against market drops as well as a slight incentive for me to keep doing this. What do you think? Any and all comments will be appreciated. If you are interested in doing this, please PM me.
Another idea I had was to have divisions of the IA and ICA (I think Libertad can remain their own group), a lot of people get on at different times throughout the day, and a lot of orders are time sensitive. I would need the IA and ICA’s help to try to implement this, if they think it’s a good idea.
3. Lastly, a big thank you to all the Greek citizens and Croatians and Canadians and allies that I have forgotten to mention. Romper, the tank responsible for pushing back Alfagrem gets a special thank you. (Well as much as a newer player's newspaper can say thanks) Without your support, we would be stuck fighting Alfa and the Brits all by ourselves, and would in all likelihood be pushed back to one or two regions. A big thanks to all our allies!!

P.S. I hope it’s okay that I used LOLcats, I stole the idea from some other Newspapers....

2. A theoretical question: would you buy my 22 Q5 Weapons for 33.46 now?
I would but I don't have all that money. I can buy 19 of them
good luck Patty o7
It was indeed just a theoretical question. It wouldn't be a very wise move though, as we have a 5% VAT on Weapons, which means 1.673 IEP tax per piece, so even if you sold them at the same price, you'd lose 31.3, almost the price of a piece. And 33.46 being a rather strong price for them these days: I had started listing them for 33.99 and was cut under by .5 per piece in a couple of hours. What I'm trying to say is that markets work a little more difficult than that.
Anyway, keep up thinking about the economy, eIreland can only be enriched by the growing awareness of the importance of understanding the economy module and the behaviour of markets.
That's why I am asking for your (and everyone's)input about this idea. So do you think it would be better if it was .1 IEP or more taken off Market price?
Good luck!
tbh honest, Patrick, I don't see your concept working at all, too much fuss for a little profit on one side, and for some immediate liquidity on the other. but hey, prove me wrong, Lord Kelvin said that radio had no future ...
Okay, thanks for your input SHM
good luck!
Good luck, Peter.
It's Patrick. And thanks 🙂
I know.
I was referencing the wiki typo for a joke.
: P
Wowww... don't worry, I'm a bit slow on the uptake...
Have you ever looked at statistics? UKSF has been doing more damage against Ireland than Alfagrem has.
Romper came along and did more damage than Ireland's total previous daily damage.
That's why I thanked him and all our allies... so what's your point?
