Solution to Fixing the Divisions System

Do you want to hear a new and improved way to fix the big issue of the military divisions? I have what I think is a great idea here inspired by a post I read on the forums.



My suggestion is to make the divisions based off of age in eRepublik. This is the most fair and balanced way to do this in my opinion. I will explain the two different approaches they could take to do this.

1) Base divisions off age at set increments.
For example:

Division 1: Less than 1 year old
Division 2: Between 1 and 2 years old
Division 3: Between 2 and 3 years old
Division 4: Older than 4 years

The only major problem I could see with this is the need to adjust the increments occasionally due to everyone getting older. This is already done in the current system and isn't a real big deal.

2) Base divisions off age evenly divided
For example:
Let's say there were 1000 players so you would have 250 in each division no matter what. Then you simply take the 250 youngest and put them in div 1 and so on.

Division 1: Youngest 25% of players
Division 2: Players in 25-50% bracket
Division 3: Players in 50-75% bracket
Division 4: Oldest 25% of players

So with this there would be no need to ever have to adjust divisions. However if it had to be exact as possible you would always have some players teetering between divisions because of new players and quitters. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, it could just get annoying for some players. I'm not sure if it would be better to do this for each individual country or for the whole world.

With this change you would no longer have players that don't fight so they don't gain experience. It will also still be generally balanced. You could always integrate a combination of age, strength, and experience too.

Well there you have my two awesome ideas so let me know what you think.
