Hey EZC,

I shouted in the feed about my CP run which Deepchill reminded me was not kosher. Instead I've started this thread here for you to make fun of me / ask me questions about the campaign.

To kick things off, here is my first article:

[quote=First Article]
Oblige for President - the EZC Thread I-2g8Szds
Mood music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m86nMHfvl7s

Dear America,

I've been waiting for this day for nearly four months now- and I'm proud to announce that (once again) I am running for President of these eUnited States. That's right. I'm going for lucky number sleven.

/article

I can't wait to share with you all my cabinet and plans for this upcoming month.

One of the major commitments I'm making right off the bat is that unlike in some previous Presidential cycles this will be a race to the finish. I'll be out every day campaigning for your vote. You're going to see a lot of articles from me- something that lately has been missing almost entirely from Presidential campaigns. I'm also going to bring back the eNPR Presidential debate - with a tentative date of November 1st - to help make sure you have all the information you need when you cast your ballot on November 5th.

This article is just a taste of what's to come - and so for now I leave you with my resume, a brief reminder of who I am and what I've done, and this exhortation: this month, for President, America needs someone it can believe in.

Prior to this vote begging thread, Oblige had not logged in to this forum for two and one half months.

I checked yesterday because I knew this was coming.

Question for Oblige.

What's in it for PMU, especially EZC?

Where do you stand in that little PMU vs USAF war going on?

Very Happy

the question should be, are you going to change anything about usaf? or do you have anything in mind about usaf?

@Pfeiffer - I am not a huge forumer outside of the eUSAForums, and yes, honestly I have not really participated in the EZC forum community, but I will note I am the only candidate that has opened a thread here so far.

Deepchill wrote:Well, I guess he's not getting back here to answer.
I am - just was up super late and was super busy last night and stayed up till 3 AM MMing.

@Deepchill - perhaps I am naive but I don't really see there being a massive conflict between the USAF and PMUs like there has been at various times in the past. The USAF budget line is as small as its ever been in recent times, and right now a single day of tax revenue is enough to fund the USAF for a week. That seems like a small price to pay for having a MU under the direct command of the CP. Obviously there are many things we could do that would reduce USAF expenditures (like building WAM companies) but those things have not worked out historically.

The majority of our high taxes at the moment are being used to replenish the reserve after the historic spending required to repel the Argentine Air Strike in Mexico and save us from an Asteria invasion.

Lastly, as for what's "in it" for PMUs - one of the big things I did the last time I was CP was start up the big NSC PM chains that seem to have become SOP now. I've always had focus on NSC as a "big tent" sort of organization where all MUs, public and private should be given a voice and a say.

honest question: what difference would your presidency make if any, compared to any other candidate?

Taking game mechanics, overall lack of fucks given to the game and stagnation into consideration; I doubt anyone could make any difference.

So do you have anything in mind thats going to stand out?

Seems odd that everyone thinks this game is dead or dying and yet will do anything to retain their position  in it. Honest question: 'Taking game mechanics, overall lack of fucks given to the game and stagnation into consideration why continue to play this game?'

people still play this game for the meta. If I was not in EZC then I would not be playing. As people get fed up with the direction this game is going, the community loses its meta. Once the meta is gone, there will be nothing left.

Not hard to see that the game is dying, all you have to do is look at our population numbers month over month.

@Bia - I'm not sure there's anything anyone except the admins can do to help stem the tide of departing players from eRep, but for myself personally the attraction has always been the community. In that regards I think we can do a lot of stuff to improve. Even if we're only making small efforts- live reviving eNPR, doing regular mass attacks, etc. we're still enhancing the game for our existing user base, helping retain them, and hopefully in the process we can scoop up a few new players as well.

thanks.

@FS: whydoibother gave you my answer. If anything, a position that I did not expect to have -EZC XO- kept me playing after 6 month brake. FEDs now keep me occupied, and hopefully I'll have a chance in Oblige's team to keep me interested in meta game. I'm not spending time in the game as much as I do on forums, QMing, NFLB work. I will not deny the positions I have in meta game keeps me playing the game. And they should really.

It's funny, I two clicked in eRep for over a year before I ever got a real approach to join the meta. It took a lot of prodding for me to get onto IRC, but within a few weeks I was hooked, and within a few months that's all the game was to me. The in game experience became largely irrelevant compared to the meta.

Honestly for the life of me I can't figure out this forum's color scheme. Spoilers are back lit in white and so is the text.... it's like... lolwat.

JK figured it out, I can over-ride that by setting a text color.

Also, if any EZCers want to participate in the government this month please take just a few moments to fill this form: http://bit.ly/ObligeCabApp and I'll find you a spot in the gov.
