FAP's Stupid Idea #1
•
by FightAndProduce
I've come up with stupid things in the past. Like my party ambassadors scheme. That went well....
But here's my idea. Maybe it's stupid. Maybe it's pure genius. Maybe it's neither of these things.
Why don't we put funding from congress medals into MU's?
MU's aren't all able to sustain themselves, as can be seen with Legion collapsing. Parties such as TUP who can get 12-13 congress members could use that 60-65 gold to run their MU. Parties should use their political advantages to help them in other fields. Sure, it might not account for all the funding. But it would help. I'm sure 60-65 gold goes a long way to supplying an MU, politics can lead to us helping the reliable soldiers who deal influence every day.
Yeah, it's probably not well thought out. But maybe there is something here. If you see a political party doing this (which I doubt)
It was me dammit!

Y'know, it really wasn't that badly received.

The Real Spamicans will pledge all their congress gold into this scheme!
Horice 😛
It's a noble gesture but it's totally unenforceable and bordering on emotionally blackmailing congressmen. I was not a fan of the 'naming and shaming' of congressmen who didn't donate gold to the NHS the other month either.
Also if you are running a supplied MU the onus is on you or your backers to keep up with supplies. If you simply can't afford to then don't offer it in the first place.
MUs now have an option to chose how they admit members, this effectively means that you can control the number of soldiers you have in a unit. So any MU should be able to sustain itself by working out how many supplies they can afford per day/week/month to however many members.
Yeah UKRP find this morally repulsive for some reason, good luck.
MUs don't need to supply anyway...
As Chaz says, the underlying essence of it is good. But Congressman are free to do what they like with their gold and shouldn't be pressured or vilified either way. Let parties and individuals decide what to do with it.
A much better and more worthwhile scheme would be if it went into a Training Ground raffle for active daily players not full training already, in my opinion.
