Only the Good Die Young

It's been a while
Probably not worth the wait, but I can try right?
So here is what I'm going to give you in this article
My Personal take on Military Awards
Way More Molly then most of you will be able to stomach
Breaking down another country I've been a part of
And another favorite friend, and about the only one who could stand on two feet next to Molly in an article. And he'll enjoy it too.
And then I'll make some promises I can't keep
😉
I got some Shiny new badges
In the last two weeks I've gotten a "decoration" for being one of the first people in the Netherlands to get a Freedom Fighter Medal, two third place badges for damage down in an MU, one third place badge for kills in an MU, and the one I like the most, one second place badge for kills in an MU. All four of those MU badges as part of the weekly challenge thing, out of the eNL Navy which is routinely the Second Best MU in the Netherlands.
You wanted More Molly
Molly Jo
So that happened^ She is officially dead in eRepublik. Don't really expect many people to care, but personally the bulk of eAustralia are a bunch of ungrateful brats. A few of them are ok, and smart enough to be grateful to what she committed to them, but the bulk just don't get it, and I can say this because I still defend their right to freedom in this game.
I met Molly a year before I ever played this game, she joined with me as just part of a lot of things we did together online, from games to music battles, and honestly we are a both off on the crazy side of the force.
Why I love her? The list is way too long to run down the whole thing, but here are some reasons, she let me turn her into the sex symbol for the original Revolutionary Party, she supported the party in any way she could even against her own best interests. And she did it all with a Grace all her own, Molly always tried to be nice to people, but she didn't come without fight. She treated people the way they treated her.
For those of you who knew her, I need not fill much in here, for those of you who didn't, Molly went from the bottom, to the top and into the background with a grace most of you will never know, and if you can't find respect for that, well that's a shame.
Countries I've been in Round Four
The Country for this article fits well with the people mentioned.
eAustralia
Why I joined to begin with: Lancer450, in all honesty I joined to hang out with him in the country he became CP/Prime Minister of.
Stuff I did while in Australia: Wrote a few articles, got in a fight with Binda over volunteering to run for Party President of the Green & Gold Party, made friends with a few people, got in a fight with TJ/Mich Gatto.
Final Thoughts: I probably should have stayed longer than about 19 days, but between college stress, and some player named Kooguy pestering me to come back to the eUSA, I didn't. Even so I've fought for them in eWars against the likes of Indonesia and Chile, and against eUSA players who think/thought CoT and its nations have a right to be cowardly little babies, I'm talking about you Chile. Also stood against ePakistans CP at the time when he wanted the NaN to support Indonesia in a battle, and the alliance page shows how that ended.
Friend of the Article
lancer450
How we met: I believe he added me one day, I clearly clicked yes.
Why I love lancer: When I first added him, he had a trend to vote nearly everything I shouted, I'd later interview him, join eAus to hang out with him, he'd come to the US Revs for a bit, I'd late join the UK to once again hang out with him, we'd spend some time in the South African Gold Party, before some ungrateful little control freak basically destroyed it after I left. Now lancer and I are together again in the Netherlands. I'm proud to call him a friend, plus he's a far better writer than I.
What you need to know about Lancer: Staying on one country may not be either of our strong suits, but it's a game and we have fun.
False Promises
Even though it is quite clear that I won't keep these promises, I swear I might write more

Voted as always. 😉
Seriously, Molly was one of the best people I have had the privilege to "meet" on this game and I'm really missing her and those good times on IRC with the rest of the gang.
And thanks for those kind words, Cody. 😃 It's strange to think that just one friend request a few years ago has resulted in the longest, most continuous friendship I've ever had on this game.
Molly 🙁
Always enjoy your writing Cody.
All the best.
Molly was a good CP 🙂
Voted, and enjoyed the read.
As always - Voted \o/
Molly was awesome and is deeply missed. Anyone who spoke to her will know the game is poorer for her no longer being around 🙁
