CURRENT ISSUES

1. For the lengthiest time, Arlor has been beleaguered by malicious creatures. I will destroy this plague by appointing dedicated Arlorian guards to defend your conurbations, and I will guarantee the safety of the people of Arlor, from the dreadful monster hordes attacking Arlor.
2. The unemployment rate in the land of Arlor is getting out of control. As the President of Arlor, I would provide more job opportunities for the noble citizens of Arlor.

Drake, have you considered the effect a coffee ban would have on the coffee farmers of Ydra Forest? I support(
almost single handedly) our local coffee farmers.

Other candidates are rallying support to 'Burn the Bakery' but I say 'Burn the Beans!!' Grind them up, pour hot water over them & then enjoy an organic, locally grown and truly Arlorian beverage. Great with cake!

PS - Anyone that tries to ban coffee is a terrorist trying to bring down Arlorian society, as we know it; I say shoot to kill....

Name of Canidate: Potatomilk
Office Sought: Presidential
Name of Committee: The National Committee of Food and Potatoes

Running Mate: Visiting

Current Issues:
-Theres too many bugs out there. I will report all bugs.
-Economy. Items are getting cheaper and cheaper and it's hurting the auction listers. I will supply plenty of items of high demand. I will also reduce the tax by 2%.
-Potatoes. We don't have any potatoes in Arlor. How do we make french fries? I will create massive potato farms throughout Arlor to fix this.
-Holidays. We need more holidays in Arlor. Just submit your holidays and I will choose which will be a national holiday.
-Crimes. Lately there has been some injustice in Arlor. I will set up numerous police departments throughout Arlor.
-Allies. Their daily reward is starting to wear out. I will place more Allies throughout Arlor.
-Items. Items don't have enough choice and variety to them. I will supply more interesting items.
-Food. There is a MASSIVE lack of food in Arlor. As i mentioned earlier, I will supply huge farms throughout Arlor. This will even cause a 5000% increase in cake,coffee,bacon,potatoes,and also ingredients to make the food. There will also be restaurants,food trucks, and all that cook stuff you like.
-Entertainment. This is underrated. I will promote this by posting ads on billboards throughout Arlor. Also the promoted content will be ad free! There will also be radio stations to listen to while you are farming or waiting for the screen to stop loading.
-Exercise. Arlorians aren't getting enough of it. I will set up gyms throughout Arlor.

Also I will give this to all my voters:

Name of Candidate: Mimmay

Party Affiliation: The Greater Good

Office Sought: Presidential

Name of Committee: Decisive Union Mim Launched Uniting People (DUMLUP)

Running Mate: Tottiee

Current Issues:

Bugs:-
Various bugs will be squished to eradicate confusion among commonfolk. Which ultimately will lead to a better game-playing environment. Plus, squished bugs can be fed to pets which lowers their feed cost

Bans:-
Bans on Arlorians will never happen unless it is crucial for the community. Legal action will be taken where justice will be served at the new (to be built) High Court in Keyls. Also bug exploitation will never happen ever again cuz every update will be double checked

Entertainment:-
I will implement Radio service which play the music you like, LiVe during gameplay so that you dont sleep while farming watever you farm
Also, The new Arlor Hotel comming soon will have a new Mini-Games section through which you can earn Mim Tokens on games which will payout for new pets (which will not be recoloured!).

Cakes:-
I have noticed that my fellow competitors have major issues they wish to fix, like the cake scarcity in Arlor. I will help out for this cause and hire chefs and scientists to create recipes for SuperCakes! Which are cakes that come in various flavourings, when on consumption provides a player with a specific buff for 10minutes. That is, the Coffee cake provides Alertness ( a super speed buff), Caramel provides every enemy hit by player to get stuck in a gooey caramelly pool of sugar, & the infamous Buttercream Frosted Cupcakes which has a 30% chance to summon pools of buttercream which makes foes slip and unable to get off the ground for 7seconds.

Extra:-
We also need more Country banners. I will fix that issue

Name of Candidate: STATUEOFGOLD
Party Affiliation:To remove the black shadow which fell on arlor quote from the history of arlor
Office Sough: Presidential
Name of Committee:

THE ARLORIAN'S LEAGUE(TAL)


RUNNING MATE: KOOOTHI
CURRENT ISSUES:

1)one of the biggest problem of AL is the bots

SOLUTION

anyone can easily sign up using the current email login setup,even if there is no existing email id one can create a account and its a easy job no authentication required but if it is made compulsory that one must have a valid email id,the story becomes a little complicated and the number of bots will surely be reduced

RESULT:

stop the gold sellers,stop the people who creates newer accounts for gold

2)The economic depression which is stated by most of the people here had been already solved! thank sts for that!

THE PROOF!!

fossil 1 month back while economic depression was there : 500k
present price of it : 2m

3)Scammers

SOLUTION:

scammers are the biggest threat of arlor,each second someone scams other and the time sts finds that someone had actually scammed,the scammer had already transferred his debt to a newer account,to solve this you can create another sub thread like the( general discussion,al traders market) and people can put the scammers name over there,rather than mailing you,because daily u get numerous mails which are of different topic and also make this thread private to sts only so that as u sts say that these sort of thread can create violence,so that it can only be u and the victim.

RESULT:

BY THIS STS CAN GET RID OF A SCAMMER MUCH FASTER,SCAMMER FREE ENVIRONMENT


4)BRINGING BACK THE COLLECTIBLES:

COLLECTIBLES- One of a group or class of objects, such as period glass or historical memorabilia, sought by collectors ( freedictionary)

so if you bring these stuffs back to game,the meaning of the so called collectible is lost

EXAMPLE:

steel commando vest

before: 1m-2m
present-90k

5)BUGS

SOLUTION:

before releasing a new update,just send us a example version to a picked amount of people,so that they can use it and give u the feedbacks of it.

RESULT:

no more bugs


THERE IS NO USE OVER KNOWING THE BUGS AFTER PEOPLE HAVE NOTICED IT ALREADY

AND HAD BEEN AFFECTED BY IT

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE

WHY VOTE FOR THE PEOPLE,WHO POST UNREALISTIC STUFFS OVER HERE,JUST LIKE BRINGING RADIOS,CAKE PARTY AND STUFF,LOOK FOR THE REAL,THERE IS A LOT TO CARE ABOUT,FIRST LET'S TALE THE QUOTE(A DARK SHADOW HAS FELL ON ARLOR) FROM THE HISTORY OF ARLOR

SUPPORT US FOR A BETTER FUTURE-


BY THE PEOPLE
FOR THE PEOPLE
TO THE PEOPLE



VOTING IS IN YOUR HANDS
