Article
Here is a continuation article from my last one. However this current article is more of a article defending the current government, rather than being my views.
Oh and rather than a long article this is going to be short in dot points. God damn I jinxed myself it's long.
The quotes are from: http://e-sim.org/article.html?id=8944
About travian/officer response you can read in comments of Dewy's newspapers but main thing is that Rafe is very good at organizing and that's what Australia lack most, I'll give recent example yesterday RW started in New South Wales as usual we didn't know anything about it, government didn't say if it was arranged with Indonesia or it was started by random Indonesian player. Anyways in first 5 rounds (maybe more) of this war order from ADF was to fight in war in Sulawesi (Indo vs Russia) this is probably because there wasn't anyone awake who could change order and it would be fine if Australia didn't have lots player who are from RL Europe who could change MU order and possibly we could have won another round or two.
While reading this all I could think of was.
The comic itself isn't 100% accurate, but it does represent the stupidity of the argument thrown against the current government.
1. We didn't know about the RW. It was not started by us nor were we given any warning.
2. The ADF orders were to fight for Sulawesi for a reason. I didn't do 399k damage by accident.
3. We have to wait till the current battle ends before switching orders
4. We do have a life. Unlike Rafe we aren't up at 3 am during the week days. That was not implying rafe doesn't have a life.
EDIT: Rafe stays up at 3 am that's a fact, not a insult. Calling it an insult is ludicrous.
5. We don't have loads of real life players from Europe who can changes orders. We have ZERO people from Europe who can change orders. *Me being pedantic*
About economy and taxes just look here http://e-sim.org/countryEconomyStatistics.html?countryId=35 iron import tax 99%? Income Tax for gifts 10% for everything else 5%? We won't see any cash flowing from taxes because there are only two active companies in Australia but taxes like this are ridiculous. We need to attract more companies to Australia but before that we need to liberate capital province because of production bonus also we need to increase workforce by bringing new players .Pay in Australia is very low and this is our best bet to attract more companies, as new companies emerge pay will go up.
1. If we have only 2 weapon companies in Australia all income taxes despite weapons are irrelevant. Calling them ridiculous is strange.
2. Yes we need to attract more companies, put apparently the Economic Liberals don't actually want to.
About Australia org offering jobs main idea is that companies for gifts and guns in South Australia should be sold and new ones opened in Northern Territory of course liberating capital would be nice because of production bonus. This way players could return to Australia and help our economy instead working in Indonesia/Argentina .Main gold income should come from government companies by selling products directly for gold and NOT from printing additional AUD. Of course every sale like that will be recorded in google sheet so people could see to whom product was sold and for what price.
1. It's the commander of the ADF job to control his workers, not the government.
2. Having them work where they are is better so they can produce a lot of gold in a day. Australia needs gold more than job offers.
About Dewy boosting himself for profit made while he was MoE I have to say
a)It's easy to make profit when you have High region and capital region with more than twenty companies paying taxes
b)It's even easier to make profit by printing 6000AUD for 30 gold and then selling it in mm ruining mm in process.
a) The taxes didn't really contribute much. I could make more AUD by working in Lithuania than what taxes gave us. True making profit is easier with a high resource region.
b) 1. First I didn't print 30 gold, I just sent the gold to the treasury to be printed.
2. You can't "ruin" the monetary market.
3. Australia still has most of that AUD IIRC (I don't have access to the Org)
4. I didn't "ruin" the monetary market
5. I had a policy of inflation, money supply and economic growth which was the most beneficial for Australia. It was so complicated I bet no one in the Economic liberals understands it.
6. Most importantly. I've made gold profit since I've been back and we have had no high region and been fighting a war. No one else in Australia can claim to have made gold profit as minister of Economy with no HIGH REGIONS.
Pay attention to the purple part.
That data is actually out of date, the purple should be the same size as the red.
About military issues and deal with Indonesia, so far we didn't get anything from Indonesia we only let them occupy Western Australia. They didn't liberate any of our provinces and we fought for them every day it's like ADF is puppet unit of Indonesia. Indonesia is lot stronger than Argentina and somehow Argentina is wining against them this is because Argentina have better allies than Indonesia. We should sign as many mpps as possible and subside every round when we attack/defend because lots of players would fight just because of money. Alliance and deal with Indonesia shouldn't be dissolved but we should look for our interests instead of Indonesian.
1. Indonesia has used a lot of gold in helping Australia. More so than we have used to help them
2. Indonesia loses against Argentina has nothing to do with allies in the sense you're talking about. You have a RAN officer with you, how about talking about military concepts with him
3. Indonesia are fighting a war on two fronts. It's a bit hard to win when you have superpowers tanking against you on two fronts. Australia couldn't even win on 1 bloody front.
About attracting new players if Rafe would start bringing players right now they will almost immediately quit game because of tension created by Dewy vs Diablo thing.
I honestly have no idea what you are talking about. There is no tension between us. We chat about mangoes and the navy all today. Did you know there have been submarine air craft carriers since WWI?

Political Commentary: Rafe and the Economic Liberals (14 years ago)
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.
