When you come to vote in the upcoming Congress elections, you might ask yourself the following -
What do I want from my elected congress members?
After that question is posed, you have many options, here's a few -
An active everyday player who will vote in-game (Note: This does not include most votes, which are done thru the forums).
An active IRC and/or Forum contributor.
A Friend.
Randomly anyone.
Whoever pays the most for votes.
A party member.
Some candidates will fit into some of the traits mentioned above. Some won't.
As in every election, some make promises, some don't. Some work for you, and some quit after a day or two (it's only after they get elected that they realize that congress is not for them).
It was a great idea by
Baarogue to have a monthly Peer Review , but due to life issues and some inactivity of the above mentioned citizen/congress member, he stopped.
.
I will not speak for my fellow congress members, some have been active while some have not.
Thanks to many new appointments, I have been very active this past month, be it in congress or in other things on eSim.
1) I have been an active congress member, checking the forums and chatting on IRC every day (hours at a time).
2) Current SoH (Speaker of the House) and former POTUS [citizen]Liquid HOMICIDE/citizen], has appointed me as dSoH, making me a moderator on the congress forums.
3) Congress and SoT (Secretary of Treasury)
Lars Thunderfist have entrusted me with dSoT, this also made me part of the executive board under current POTUS 
Pfeiffer .
4) NAF Party President
LordPariah has asked me to help out with some party activity on the forums and IRC.
5) Former NAF PP and current SoE (Secretary of Education) and Commander of West Point
Feefaroni has done a wonderful job with the Mentor Program and I have become a mentor too.
6) I became a Manager at USA Investment Co. one of the best Companies in eSim.
If you would like to join Freelancer MU , an MU that lets you decide when and how you fight, there are still a few spaces left in the Regular MU.
All of the above are from the things I do to improve the eSim experience.
I kindly ask for your vote.
Whether I do, or do not get reelected - Thank you all for the great experiences I have experienced, some lessons learned, and the fun times.
genyo P.S. The Moderators on eSim have sent me a warning. I cannot send out letters asking for your support. If that is what got me into congress these past two times, then sadly I cannot do the same this month.
Hope To Have Your Vote.
In the next few days I will start publishing a book on eSim. It will focus on the Fantasy genre amongst other things.
The IRC channel to talk about it is on rizon network #FastTrack (thanks to
iasov for the help in setting it up). If you would like to write some Fantasy - side articles, history, or other things that need to be written, please contact me, here or on IRC. Be Well.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
