May the MoH be alive in eIreland ?

It's been a while I don't post here, so might as well re-start doing it as I'm kinda getting used to this crazy v2 or rising or bugland or whatever it is called now ...
Today I'll talk about something I have posted into TD. TD which has acting a bit weird lately, but I sense things will get better soon, but that's another history:
________________________________________ ____________
Could there be a purpose in having a Minister of Health ... AGAIN?
Well, I think so. And I'll propose it right here, and right now.
The idea is quite simple:
The MoH used to use GIFTs to heal people back in v1 and while doing that it would also sell houses and most importantly advice people on how to increase their wellness.
Well NOW, we not only don't have gifts to heal but we also gotta worry about happiness too, which seems to be the major issue after all.
-The MoH already has around 16 golds stocked, around 15 Q1 houses to sell and 1 Q5 house to sell.
-The eIrish government already owns an OIL company (which is shut down at the moment)
-Happiness is a major issue to worry about when compared to wellness
The plan:
- The proposal is to get 24 gold (16g in stock + 24g donated) donated to the MoH so it can BUY a Moving Ticket company and make it a Quality 2 company. The company would be the most intensive on HAPPINESS gaining as possible (as far as I know, with a quality 2 MT company you'd have 80 points to spread, so if we count 20 for itinerary as minimum needed, that'd leave 60 points for happiness), thus creating Q2 MTs with:
> Zero wellness gain
> 6 happiness gain
> 1 zone traveling
I'll express the pro's about it and I'll leave the Con's up to TD and the people that hang around as I know you're good on finding con's:
- Reasonably cheap instant happiness gain. It would go great along with the 0.5gold you can pay for 20 wellness
- It's a moving ticket, so you can always use it to, well, MOVE.
- It would boost our Demand for Project Managers and Marketing Managers. Professions needed to construct hospitals, def systems and houses as well (we are not looking good on those jobs at the moment)
- This would be a reasonable way to allow people to TANK in v2, as for You can buy wellness, but not happiness
- You can keep the MoH acronym the same. How about Minister of Happiness
🙂
- It will give back a meaning for the position
- It's reasonably cheap and can be improved into a Q3 in the future if demand sees like it
Thoughts on it please ?
PLEASE make sure that every comment when used to express a critic also presents a suggestion so we can get this more exiting and dynamic.
- I have also posted this up here in TD, so if you don't know that we have a forum our what it's used for or anything like that, please contact me and I'll be happy to introduce you to it as all the fun really happens there (and on IRC...): http://ieforums.hobbittown.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=36553&#post36553

PS: Thank you admins for all this great bugs on the economy you can't fix in almost 2 weeks of v2. (Not to mention the beta and the freaking 30 of you hanging on your headquarters doing nothing aparently) It's getting my job as MoInd, GM and MoH very exciting and kind as I've been feeding you wicked amount of Raw materials for barely no products. Kinda feels like imposed charity...

This is a great idea!
It would make it easier on new citizens like me! 😃
o7 I'm in full support of this idea, as well as upgrading the company and pouring all those point into Happiness. This will be a good alternative to food, as food is mostly available to boost Health and not as many in Happiness.
Great idea Paschoall . Great thinking 😃 .
That's really a great idea.
That's a pretty good idea. Good thinking.
v
you lose 5 wellness and 5 happiness when you use a moving ticket and then the wellness/happiness of the ticket is added on.
So with the tickets your proposing to use the person would be -5 wellness and +1 happiness on arrival at their destination.
Its a good idea, however if what Sean Power says is true, we may need to invest more to achieve a better ticket company.
problem is that at that point it's (I'm guessing tbh) better just to give/sell them high happiness food and/or gold for the happiness booster.
Sean, I did not know about that losing -5 wellness nor -5 happiness ...
I mean, I've noticed it, but thought it was a bug or something as the ticket clearly shows only wellness and happiness GAIN are possible ...
Is there are official source for that information ?

I thought the same as you originally. The gains from the ticket only compensate the loss from using it... but it doesn't at any point tell you that you lose happiness/health by moving.... another way for admins to confuse people!
actually, wellness is ALSO a problem when it comes to a soldier in the battlefield.
without gold, you're a dead mate. like me lol
