two new things have been added. Return of Global Radiation and change of tech.

11-1-2007
- Global Radiation has been brought back into the game. The cap on global radiation is set at 4.0. There is no threshold for a happiness bonus for a low global radiation level.
- The nation strength of technology has been reduced from a multiplyer of 20 to a multiplyer of 5. Nation strength will update when you view your nation (or anyone else's nation)

Linky to update log





How do you guys feel about this? The top person is now at 85k NS.


Below is links to the suggestion box. With suggestions linked to this new rule

Wow, I just noticed that. That's crazy

[Tolkien]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...(near infinite amount of O's later)...OOOO!

I HATE the global radiation level...although it would discourage nuclear wars.

And tech brought down? Wow...that was unexpected.

[DictatorPhilTaylor]

I know...... So many alliances are dropping big now because of this. I dropped 3k from it myself. Big tech heavy alliances are gonna be losing big amount of NS.

[Kenix700]

My god this is nuts. The #1 nations NS was cut in half!

[Lord Sharpe]

Nation rankings are wonky, and will be for a bit. Nations have to be viewed for the NS change to take place. When this first changed over, I was knocked into 6.5% from 3.5%, now I am at 4.4% as nations update.

If you have an average amount of tech, you will end up close to where you started, in terms of ranking.

[Numa Maximus]

Why do you think Admin lowered the value of tech? Could people have been exploiting it by raising their NS more to get nukes faster?

And why would he EVER bring back GRL?!?! Nearly everyone despises it...

[Dr.Gamer]

I don't like it. I dropped down 20K NS. D:

[TheDave]

And now its changed because i viewd it

But..... not NS wise . Even though that hardly has much to do with anything other then hyped up tech or military. I guess it helps lower total amount of NS.

Well my perfect environment was just ruined. Despite my individual losses, this is good. We need a shake up. It will be good as people now need to re-evaluate how they develop their nations. Also the GPA dropped about 4 million nation strength :S

The scores are seriously broken.

The nation raned directly above me on strength has 500 less miles diameter, 140 less tech, 2600 less infra, 3k less soldier effect and 3 less nukes...

How can that be stronger?

wait till they update.

[Numa Maximus]

I'm sure all will be well once everyone's nations update. But what about GRL? My environment went from perfect to 3.5 stars. I don't want to have to live with that!

[Embereus]

I'm down about 7k NS... the top 50 nations were very rearranged and now they're sorta back to normal.... I lost about 2 happiness. I guess tech deals aren't really worth it anymore.

[aaannndddyyy]

No wonder I went from 42k NS to 26.

Not even nuke capable anymore.

At least I already bought 20

[Scorponok]

Noooooooooooooooooo i was so much stronger !

[Brotherington]

the tech strength change is good - GRL however i think is bad. If GRL were to be reinstated it should have been color specific (aka each team color has its own GRL). That way it would confer a competitive advantage rather than just hurting everyones income equally.

[GeneralJord]

Well my alliance just dropped by 10%...

[joeliscob]

i don't mind the global radiation thing. but the tech, heck no. that sucks.

[Great Lord Moth]

YES! You brought back global radiation!! Admin, have my babies. I'm cheap and easy.

I've wanted this for a long time.
