Bucharest September 1st 2008

The destruction brought by the combined forces of Icon-Romania.png Romanians, Icon-Sweden.png Swedes and other allied forces were too much. Not only did we manage to take down countless of PEACE GC forces but in the collateral damages was the Erepublik servers to be found. Totally destroyed.

I woke up at 05:47 by some guys outside arguing loud and intense. I lived at the Kiwi Hostel in central Bucharest, the hotel was green and cheap, what more can one ask for? Well, the food could be better. Every time I ordered Q4 all I've got was Q2. I complained so loud once that the hotel manager came to my table. He pointed at a red bottle and said, "Everything is Q4 with Ketchup, use it!".

The guys who woke me up were arguing about whether it was a swede or not who had taken out the Erepublik Servers. Apparently, it had been shot by an M136 AT4 and where now spread out over an area larger than the original server room. I kept a low profile that morning.

Since we managed to destroy the server we now had a day without fighting. I decided to be a tourist for a day. I asked myself - what is Romania known for? I knew that there was something that all the Goons and the Pakistani people were yelling about every time Romania came up as a topic. The answer was obvious - impartial admins and programmers! I just had to visit them!

Said and done! I stepped into a local liqueur store nearby Unirii Square and asked an older man with a bottle of Ciuc in his hand. "Aah, the programmers and admins, they live just outside, in Geektown. You can take bus 404, on a good day it might get you there if you are lucky." The distance where less than 35 miles and the trip took well over six hours. The bus 404 had to stop several times and let all the passengers out, go back to the stop we passed last and then back to us again. We ran around like headless chickens by the time it finally stopped on Nerd Street in Geektown.

It didn't take long to find a programmer, I spotted a pale guy in his late twenties, two inches taller than myself but probably 20 pounds lighter. He had bottle glasses and were sitting at a bench for his 'daily five minutes away from the computer' drinking jolt cola. His name was Razvan. Razvan was nice, he only got upset when we started to talk salaries, I've got 20 RON a day in the Food business and Razvan only got 7 RON. "I have skill 3.90 in PHP, I will reach 4 on Wednesday! I will demand that Alexis Bonte give me a raise!" He said.

I asked Razvan about the war - not mentioning that I was a Swede and that it probably was one of my guys who had blown up the Server, Razvan was concerned. "I like it here in Romania, he started. People are nice here, nature is beautiful, so are the women. I don't want to be Hungarian. Honestly, if you take a close look at most Hungarians you see that they are missing pixels. Most of them lag a lot too, as a programmer I hate that!"

Razvan was genuine, he was an honest and hard working man dreaming of finally manage to charm one of Dios Waifus and marry her (this time for real he said) and make her pregnant, something that Dio apparently fails miserably with.

I felt that Razvan was a guy worth fighting for!

I had to do something! First I contacted the Congress in Sweden and as soon as I got the green light I called in the other leaders in Atlantis who are helping Romania. I gathered them for an urgent meeting in Geektown.

They all showed up, the Argentinians, the Brits, the oh so finish Norwegians, the Americans, the Spaniards. Not only them, but I had also called in the admins, Razvan and couple of guys showed up.

I held the meeting at an old gravel covered soccer field. I lined up the Atlantis leaders on one side and Razvan and the other admins five feet in front of them.
I looked at the Atlantis leaders and said: "Remember the Alamo?" The Atlantis leaders nodded. I used my foot to draw a line in the gravel, just in front of the Atlantis leaders and continued. "Look at these guys" They all looked at Razvan and his colleagues, Razvan was pale, tired and had probably not slept for several days. "Now its time to REMEMBER THE ADMINS!"

I continued immediately so no one had the chance to object and say things like: [These lines have been deleted. /Admin.] So I continued my speech with: "Romania will be defending tomorrow, its now she really need the help of Atlantis. We are all fighting here but we also need resources. We need to put in more GOLD in the Romanian economic system.
If all the Atlantis nations give gold to their soldiers here in Romania then it would be a huge boost, both increasing your soldiers capacity to fight but also for the Romanian economy.
The soldiers will exchange their new given GOLD to RON at the Banca Nationala and thus providing Romania with gold also!"
The leaders nodded, the message made sense.
"The Swedish government have given a clearance of Icon - Gold.gif 1000 GOLD to be divided out to the Swedish paratroopers currently fighting here in Romania, they will all be given the same amount. Icon - Gold.gif 10 GOLD each now and 10 new ones in about two days." [This information was confirmed by Flammbar, the president of Sweden.]

I looked at the Atlantis leaders all lined up. Some of them had been generous already in the war, but a line up such as this would reveal if someone was trying to hide and let the rest of the Atlantis do all the dirty work for them.

"Can your nations help Romania with GOLD also? Can you send GOLD to your troops fighting from Bucharest? Will you boost the fighting capability and at the same time help the Romanian economy? Each country after its own resources and capability. If you will - then take one step forward, name the sum, cross the line and fight for Romania. This day shall be known as: Remember the Admins!"
