CNRP POLL

Question 1: B
Question 2: E
Additional Information: I think the brackets should be ..blah..blah..blah

Yah, I can see a change to Infrastructure based brackets. Something like this:

0-4,000: No multiplier
4,001-5,000: x2
5,001-6,000: x3
6,001-7,500: x4
7,501-Infinity: x5

And maybe even toss in a tech requirement for new brackets too, something like this:


0-4,000 Infra, 0-500 tech: No multiplier
4,001-5,000 Infra, 501-1,000 tech: x2
5,001-6,000 Infra, 1,001-2,000 tech: x3
6,001-7,500 Infra, 2,001-3,500: x4
7,501-Infinity Infra, 3,501-Infinity: x5

That would probably be a bit more fair than total NS.

As for Voodoo's concern, I've got nothing, it's the same issue that would dog any multiplier put in place, and it's a good point. I guess it would have to be up to everyone else to decide if the trade off is worthwhile

Alright, I'm going to throw this idea out. I do not do this because it's the best idea, or because it's something I'll fight for, but because it's an idea, and it exists, and maybe someone else can turn it into something wonderful.

Graduated Multiplier for navies.

You have brackets based on NS, where, every time you enter the bracket, you can use the multiplier of the bracket. There would only be a few set brackets to make sure multipliers don't get too huge, or too complicated and easy to misinterpret (Like the old Log based tech scale). I'm thinking the best way to do it would be something like this.

0-20,000: No multiplier
20,001-25,000: x2
25,001-35,000: x3
35,001-50,000: x4
50,000-Infinity: x5

That keeps it so no one gets too ridiculous in their navies (I'm going to guess that V the King has the largest navy of anyone in CNRP, and his in game navy is 70, meaning his multiplied would be 350 less than the number of large ships in the Soviet navy during WWII so not all too absurd for one of the most powerful nations in the RP, especially considering the nigh constant war we have). This would also make sure that no one goes insane and gets thousands of ships, but at the same time, you get more realistic numbers. There could, of course, be multiplier brackets higher than the 50,000-infinity cutoff, but it really doesn't seem necessary, because it would just serve to make numbers way too big. Then just add to this the current "The navy is the base number, it is how many ships total, not what kinds of ships" system, and you get a little dash of increased realism.

Once again, this isn't me oretending I'm all knowing, and think this is the best, most fool proof plan. It's just a thought.

Question 1: A [ NO]
Question 2: C [Nation Strength, rather number of ships in game]
Additional Information: Unavailable

Oh and, only nuclear capable nations should be able to have nuclear powered ships.

This is a no discussion thread, if you would like to make additional comments please post in this thread.

Freakwars,

CNRP POLL

Question 1: A
Question 2: F
Additional Information: I'm a traditionalist. I think no change is required.

I was a little slow in responding.. I know it makes no difference.. I voiced my thoughts anyhow. Any poll that doesn't give folks time to respond isn't worth considering anyhow. A poll like this should be up at least.. oh.. 20 days.. to a month to ensure everyone gets an opportunity for input. Otherwise.. it's just a 'special interest group' drive by shooting at game policy. A week is the duration of most vacations.

...
A week is plenty of time to click on a thread and type 20 words.

It is not if you have no computer access...

[A] NO [ 18 ] ** [36.73%]
[B] YES [ 31 ] ** [63.27%]
How should a RP nation's naval size multiplier be determined?
[C] Nation Strength [ 6 ] ** [12.24%]
[D] Infrastructure [ 10 ] ** [20.41%]
[E] Infrastructure AND Technology [ 22 ] ** [44.90%]
[F] Other (please explain) [ 11 ] ** [22.45%]
How awesome is Ty?
Slightly awesome. [ 31 ] ** [63.27%]
Very awesome. [ 4 ] ** [8.16%]
Extremely awesome. [ 4 ] ** [8.16%]
I am not worthy. [ 10 ] ** [20.41%]

0-4,000 Infra, 0-500 tech: No multiplier
4,001-5,000 Infra, 501-1,000 tech: x2
5,001-6,000 Infra, 1,001-2,000 tech: x3
6,001-7,500 Infra, 2,001-3,500: x4
7,501-Infinity Infra, 3,501-Infinity: x5

Enough people who are out for internet of months, should we keep polls for a year then? A week was enough time especially looking at the amount of votes that came in

Look, I voted differently than Maelstrom, but I still advocate his right to cast that vote.

Americans only have a few hours of a day to vote in far more important things. There was a deadline, he missed it.

No, we don't. We have at least a month to vote. It's all absentee ballots now--no polls.
