Longbaugh (pronounced \lȯŋˈbau\; born day 479) is a politician, soldier, public intellectual, entrepreneur, and gonzo journalist from the United States.

Biography

Longbaugh (right) at the June 2009 "Emerick is Great" conference in New York City.

Longbaugh was born on on day 479 of the New World—Friday the 13th of March, 2009—in Dallas, Texas. He is the third and only surviving son of Trey Stancher, who all died the day before he was born.

Upon reaching level 7, Longbaugh joined the United States Workers Party under party president ProggyPop. He worked and trained every day for 89 days before a regularly-scheduled maintenance session went over-schedule and he missed out on his third Hard Worker medal. Regardless, he continues to work every day. His work experience is strictly relegated to the manufacturing industry.

In those three months he bounced around numerous jobs and was fairly active on the US and USWP forums. He became known as a fierce critic of Uncle Sam, Dio Brando, and the beta giant sub-culture in general. He campaigned for scrabman all four times he ran for the presidency—the first time, losing to Uncle Sam's "George W. Bush/Chuck Norris" re-election campaign.

In May of 2009 Longbaugh was elected the fifth Senator of Hawai'i. In July of 2009 he defected to Ireland but moved again to Indonesia a few weeks later to fight against Fortis and EDEN.

Upon the conclusion of World War III Longbaugh returned to Ireland. He lived there for four months, when (in February of 2010) he permanently relocated to the United Kingdom.

Flag-Pakistan.jpgOn Day 635 he converted to Dioism upon the personal blessing of Dio Brando himself. He credits the death of darkplayer82 (a Theocrat) in August of 2008 as the catalyst for his re-consideration of the core faith.Flag-Pakistan.jpg

On Day 1,031 Longbaugh answered Max McFarland 2's call to move to Pakistan and help rebuild the empire.

Achievements


Longbaugh has received thirty awards:

Icon achievement Hard Worker on.gif 15x Hard Worker





Icon achievement Congress Member on.gif 11x Congress Member





Icon achievement Super Soldier on.gif 4x Super Soldier





Before the corporate reset he was the owner, president, and CEO of Orchid Worldwide (headquartered in London), Red Son Industries (headquartered in Moscow), and Biffco (headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada). He remains the founder and press director of The Long Bow, the oldest gonzo newspaper in the New World.

Military History


Longbaugh considers himself to have never been formally involved with the United States Armed Forces. He claims that the U.S. army never officially recognized him as a soldier and forced him to pay for his own weapons and moving tickets every time he fought. When he lived in Indonesia, after leaving the United States, he also was never a member of the military (having never bothered to enlist).

When Longbaugh moved back to Ireland in November of 2009 he enlisted in the Irish Defence Forces, serving in the Leinster Rangers division. Upon reaching the field marshal threshold, he was transferred to Na Fianna.

British Army

After moving to the UK in February of 2010 Longbaugh immediately enlisted in the military, serving in the Royal Parachute Regiment; the tanking division of the British armed forces. Upon the merger of the Royal Parachute Regiment with the Royal Marines (into the Special Forces Support Group), Longbaugh was transferred to Task Force 41, A Company.

The entire British military was reorganized on April 21, 2010 as part of the national preparation for eRepublik Rising. Longbaugh was subsequently transferred to 23 SAS; the helicopter division of the Special Air Service.

Politics

Addressing American ex-pats in Jakarta, Indonesia.
 There is hopeful symbolism in the fact that flags do not wave in a vacuum. 

Longbaugh describes himself as a former atheist, an unapologetic polemicist, and a proudly-staunch liberal.

Longbaugh left Texas in April of 2009 for the Aloha State of Hawai'i. He created the newspaper The Long Bow initially as a tool for his first congressional campaign in May of 2009, posting his first article on May 23, immediately after being nominated by the USWP for the seat. It was after writing that first article that he first encountered the dirty nature of U.S. politics when Senator Tormod of Utah immediately thrashed him for even daring to challenge his alleged friend changewillcome for the seat. Though, it should be noted that Longbaugh later learned that the two were never friends and that Tormod only acted the way he did because he was a party hack who was simply defending a fellow party member.

On May 25th Longbaugh was elected the fifth Senator of Hawai'i. After being assigned to a junior seat on the Military Committee, he began work in the USWP-dominated 18th United States Congress under President scrabman. His term was fairly standard; except for caving to inexperience and jumping the committee process on an import tax bill. Nevertheless, he published his voting record every week in The Long Bow and explained his reasons behind each vote.

His re-election campaign was not a success. He was initially challenged by fingerguns of the Libertarian Party until fingerguns had to drop out due to the ineptitude of party president Claire Littleton (who apparently forgot she was PP). As a result of vote moving by the Libertarian Partyhis replacement, James Harding, defeated Longbaugh by one vote.

At this point he became a private citizen, working and fighting every day in the war games with Ireland. He wrote an article detailing what he called, "the fundamental problem with small parties," and got a lot of criticism for what was otherwise a level-headed analysis of why the USWP dominates every election. However, it wasn't until he wrote an article "thanking" the United Independents Party for the federal criminal Senator Robert S. Miller (who attempted to liquidate the Federal Reserve) that he drew fire from all fronts.

The Holy Message

USWP party president Zcia asked that he remove the article, as it was unnecessarily drawing criticism of the USWP—though Longbaugh never mentioned his party in either the article or in any of his replies to comments. He made such knowledge known. However, upon Zcia pressing the matter, he politely declined, resigned from the USWP, and continued pressing UIP party president Ansen to issue a statement regarding their nomination of, and campaign to put Robert S. Miller in congress.

After the statement was finally issued by the UIP (with no acknowledgment of Longbaugh's plight), Longbaugh declared the issue to be dead. However, Ansen decided to continue going after Longbaugh and called upon his friends to do the same; showering his articles and his PM box with insults. Over the course of a few days Longbaugh had a conversation with the banned Robert S. Miller (as HiFat Industries) and learned that Miller's corruption was only the tip of the iceberg regarding both the United Independents Party and the Libertarian Party.

This, in addition to the dissolution of ATLANTIS on May 21st and the subsequent disorganized formation of Fortis and EDEN, caused Longbaugh to become so disenfranchised that he quit his job and moved to Navan, in the Louth.

After moving to Indonesia in July of 2009, Longbaugh ran for office three times in three different regions; losing each election. Upon his return to Ireland he won three successive elections.

Ireland

 I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell. 

Upon his defection from the United States in July of 2009, Longbaugh moved to Ireland. Befriending numerous polite Irish, Longbaugh felt comfortable and at ease; even though the people slandering him with unsubstantiated accusations continued to do so in replying to his then-Irish newspaper articles. He resented what he called the "schoolyard" politics of the United States and made it known to every American going out of their way to insult him from across the Atlantic.

Nursing a hangover at his home in Navan, Ireland.

When Indonesia invaded Hawai'i on July 13, 2009 (effectively starting World War III), Longbaugh decided to get involved. Considering the United States would be busy fending off four nations, war games would be indefinitely suspended. He informed his employer, his party, and his newfound countrymen that he was moving to Indonesia to fight for PEACE GC and would return to his adopted homeland after the war.

On day 724 Longbaugh returned to Ireland upon the news that Indonesia had resigned from PEACE GC. He almost immediately announced his candidature for a Dublin seat in the Dáil Éireann, running as a member of the Irish Union Party. Competing against eleven other candidates (four from his own party), Longbaugh was narrowly elected to the sixth seat by one vote.

In January of 2010 Poland (fresh off a record baby boom) invaded the United Kingdom in the name of EDEN. President Edana Savage issued an order for the Irish Defence Forces to stand-down, effectively putting the final nail in the coffin of the technically-invalid Raleigh Treaty. Longbaugh wrote an article in The Long Bow declaring his firm position that Ireland should help the UK in the face of invasion, if only to further relations with the neighboring world power. The article was met with much opposition from Irish citizens; though some Irish (including elected Teachta Dála's) expressed support for aid to the UK. Regardless of the expected—and customary—reaction to Longbaugh's article, it still managed to receive over a hundred votes (which is a rarity in such a small and partially-active nation like Ireland).

On Day 800 Longbaugh penned an article addressing Theocracy's abandonment of Pakistan upon invasion by India. His principle criticism was rooted in the recent relocation of all Theocrats to pig-disgusting Spain in December of 2009. The article gained worldwide attention among Dioists, anti-Dioists, and Theocrats alike; eventually drawing the attention of the principle Theocratic deity Dio Akira.

He resigned as Teachta Dála of Dublin on Day 818 of the New World.

United Kingdom

Longbaugh moved to London in February of 2010 to fight off the EDEN invasion. Almost immediately upon arriving in London, he applied for citizenship. His citizenship application was personally approved by GLaDOS.

Completing his daily treatment in Norway. The masked assistant is Norwegian.

In March of 2009 Longbaugh ran for Parliament in London as a member of the center Radical Freethinkers Alliance. He garnered 27 votes but failed to secure one of London's three seats. Four additional seats were won as wildcards as London is by far the most populated region of the UK and therefore sees the highest voter turnout.

On April 22nd (Day 884) he announced his candidacy for a West Midlands seat as a member of the RFA. He won and took his seat in the House of Commons the next day; the same day that the Radical Freethinkers Alliance changed its name to Spectrum.

When the British Army attacked Norway on Day 973 Longbaugh purchased a cottage in the Indre Arna suburb of Bergen, Vestlandet to dig in for the war. As was famously documented in a ZA MUDRUDO special report on pig-disgusting culture, Longbaugh had to be summarily treated every day on a wooden slab at his Indre Arna home due to the ancient Nordic custom of playing nonstop trance music from from dusk until dawn. He was one of a handful of MPs who traveled with government staff while in Norway. During the war, per suggestion or request, Longbaugh allowed Nords in his staff to mask themselves when appearing in public with him to protect their identity from Norwegian revolutionaries and terrorists. He sold the cottage when he departed to Pakistan.

After a month out of Parliament, due to Polish occupation of every British region but London on election day, Longbaugh won his third term in the House of Commons; this time winning in East Midlands as a member of the re-established RFA.

On Day 1,031 Longbaugh moved to Pakistan to help rebuild Pakistan with the third generation of Dioists in Stone Ocean, the fourth incarnation of /v/.

Pakistan

In early September a group of Dioists from the United States began organizing a Dioist repatriation movement. Upon learning of this Longbaugh answered the worldwide call to return to his spiritual homeland, regardless of its American origins. Led by Max McFarland 2, they called themselves "The Exodus."

On day 1,798 he re-emerged from a 22 month sabbatical in the Kirthar Mountains of western Sindh and moved back to Dallas, the city of his birth. Four days later he was granted citizenship, becoming an American again after over three years abroad.
