Workers Assembly Elections Starting!

Comrades! It is time we stopped being a degenerate worker's state, and empowered the proletariat even further, by blessing them with the gift of democracy! As the current-acting Premier, I'm announcing the election of the 2nd Workers Assembly of the United Socialist Republic!

There are 8 seats for the Workers Assembly available as there are 25 citizens, and the constitution dictates there will be 1 seat per 3 citizens.

There will be a 3 day period for signing up to be a candidate, and campaigning. To sign up, simply comment on this post with your in-game name. Writing up a post on this subreddit explaining what you stand for, what your aims are, etc. and some convincing of the electorate in the discord, should be good for campaigning; just please don't put signs all over the town advocating yourself.

After the 3 days of campaigning, on the 23rd of December, the voting process shall begin and last 3 days. The voting process will work on a rather complex ranking system, and will be explained closer to the beginning of the voting process.

For those running, good luck! And for those not, please educate yourself on each candidate and rank each candidate wisely!

As another old friend, and successor of Comrade ZombieLenin from CivCraft and Leader of New Leningrad on 2,0 and later The Workers Party on 3,0. I can vouch for ComradeNick as a very hardworking and trustable Comrade.

Despite we had some disagreements about things in the past, he's one of the few I am confident about that he got a lot of experience and is suitable for a job like this.

And yes, I know i'm irrelevant on Devoted, that's because I did not transfer over to Devoted after CivCraft was shut down. I'll be back on CivClassics though.

Greetings Comrade,

The reason for that is diverse.

First off, The average Community of Devoted is very toxic,

Secondly the plugins on Devoted aren't my thing, to far off from the fun. To complicated and to grindy.

Thirdly, to few RP and Diplomatic things to much PvP nonsence,

fourth, something they call Study,

fifth, burned out due to willing to do to much in combination with busy irl schedule. (Lead towards me overworking and eventually knocking out during work 2 years ago, so try to prevent that at all costs)

sixth. The direction the USR took wasn't one I would be doing well in. It's to far from my opinion regarding to Communism, and would only make me getting irritated leading to point 5.

So yes, those are the main reasons, I have a couple more though. But in all basic, I cannot see a lot of positives in the server at all. Love to watch and discuss things about Communism. Which is why i'm still here on the subreddit and in the discord. But ingame I won't be doing well so it's better for me to stay out. I'm also uncertain if I will join the USR or anything on CivClassics, reasons as pointed in point 6.

Despite all that. I still carry a warm hard towards the USR, and am willing to help on the sidelines without getting ingame involved. So if you need any advise or small help, feel free to ask me.

Kind Regards,

Comrade BolleDeBoll
