[WYD] A Fork In The Road for MDP Drones (Day 1790)

Day 1,790, 15:23 • Published in Canada Canada • by Addy Lawrence



The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

On a democratic in-game mechanic within a dictatorship...

Tomorrow is a decision day in eRep, a game structured around democracy. This doesn't reconcile with the Military Dictatorship Party, which is a Dictatorship. The 15th of the month is Judgement Day for the Military Dictatorship Party and it provides the drones and slaves to hold the Military Council to account when it has failed.



The party drones are being led down the garden path by leadership that has been seduced by the temptations of quarter. There is no Military Council to hold leadership to account, instead there is a Coalition Leadership Group that tolerates fail and keeps MDP down.

There is a fork in the road tomorrow. One path is familiar and clearly marked by the Party Dictator, this is what the Coalition Leadership Group expects you to do, follow them. Another path leads to an independent MDP full of swagger and free of quarter, if you follow me.

I invite you to follow me down that path and live the 8 tenets of the Military Dictatorship Party:

1. Voices are only meant to be heard when asked to speak and know what they are talking about

2. Leadership is pre-ordained and not open to democratic vote.

3. Failure in leadership will lead to swift punishment from the military council.

4. Congressman will operate upon the direction of the Party Dictator when ordered.

5. Taxes will be used to fund the nation’s military units to help them achieve maximum efficiency through programs aimed at both the MU and its members

6. Quarter will be neither asked for or given.

7. Financial security and protection of the nations funds is priority one in governance.

8. Actively pursue aggressive military campaigns in accordance with #7.
