I'm running for PP of the Free party, just run for party leader party and I'd love for you to vote for me.
Personally, I don't have many plans for this party. It's not supposed to be 'my party' and I'm not going to be running for Party Leader next month. I just want to get the ball rolling and hand it off to younger, fresher minds. Already, some of our first unofficial members are coming up with some great ideas, like... Well, I'd better not say! But! The Wonderbolts, though! That's so cool. I'm really excited about this!
In other news, famed eRepper Astra Kat has taken up the cause of both the Equestrian Yearling Unity Party and TOP GUN, meaning that in addition to Molly Emma and msrainysunday, TOP GUN has the one thing BoB can't buy; a decent male to female ratio!
Brag about those stats, Leroy. ;D
So, anyway, encouragement of sexual harassment aside... I am extremely bored, America. There's just not much going on, you know? I want Sonic Rainbooms and all I can seem to find is Rarity designing outfits. I mean, that's nice and all, people need outfits but... seriously, 20% cooler.
So, how about a game of Battleship ?
How this works is there are 100 squares on the board and 17 ships arranged vertically or horizontally. The Patrol Boat is 2 long and pays out .3 Gold each square. The Destroyer and Submarine are each 3 long and pay out .5 Gold on each Square. The Battleship is 4 long and pays out .75 Gold on each square and the Carrier is 5 long and pays out 1 Gold for each square. The final blow on any ship pays out double!
You can buy an attack by donating to me .2 gold and buy as many as you like then, in the donation comment box, guessing at which of the squares my ships are placed (i.e. say 'A6' or 'G9' or whatever you fancy). If you land a hit, I will pay out the associated prize. I will pay the prizes out as soon as possible (I do have a life! ...sorta.) which means you can have an edge on your next attack!
I will update the board around every 12 hours (from the time of publishing) and it is strictly first come, first serve. If anyone buys a slot that has already been claimed by someone else, regardless of the board reflects this, I will return the donation. The game ends when the last ship is sunk, any further donations will be returned and the board will be removed with a sign saying that, yes, the game is over.
This is a TOP GUN fund-raiser and every contribution goes towards that alone, which is the same thing I'd do if I were keeping the money anyway because TOP GUN!
I'd like to do this regularly, so it wouldn't do very well for me to go and scam people and that won't win me many friends (which is honestly much better capital than gold), so no I'm not going to scam you. Some people don't like me but I dare you to find someone that thinks I'm a cheater! ^w^
Your move, America.
Equus Maximo of all Ponydom and Rear Admiral of the Fleet
And don't forget to vote for me on the 15th!

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.
