Hi,

I will wait to see if its really good or not.

Btw, the Alerts page has a bug, since I subscribe to comments, the link to the article is broken and I'm redirected to the homepage. If it's an article everything goes fine, but if it's a comment it doesn't.

Even more, can you reactivate the Join and Resign function that existed in the Beta version, that informs the Party President about people that join or resign the party? It's very helpful for a Party President, since V1 doesn't give such information.

Keep it up!

flik_kenni: damage points = force points. And indeed you are right, you have to reach the next limit to gain a higher rank

Ipnotik: It is not a bug, you are able to candidate but if your party will not be in the top five until the voting polls are open, you won't be able to run for a congress seat

Nice improvement, admin.

1 question tho', According to your formula of transition from SF to Total Force; if I had 134 SF with rank of Colonel, my total force would be 134*100=13,400. Is that correct? If it is, why now I only have 10,050 Total Force points? Was my calculation wrong?

Yes, only some 465 000 more points to beat down until Russia can have their first region.

Two things:
-Fix that bug.
-Make it possible to see how many points there are acctually left.

 
Misho

Misho Day 364, 02:29

How do you calculate:

With the last system you reached Colonels rank at 121 fights. The transitions says 100 points per win.

I had 199 superfights. 199-121=78
78 x 100 = 7800
The base sum for a Coloel is 9000 points.

After the tranistion my points should be the base point + (the number of superfights higher then colonels rank X 100 point) = 9000 + 7800 = 16800

I have 14925

Please, explain it better or fix it if you have made it wrong.

/Misho

From my calculations:
Force Points = Superfights * transition value T

50 for Rank 1,2,3
75 for Rank 4,5
125 for Rank 6,7
150 for Rank 8

now we should spend more gold to become firld marshal and its so bad!
before this we could become to field marshal with 1000 gold but now its about 1500 gold to become field marshal from general! aah its make me crazy
The war system is totally wrong!
it only makes us to spend more gold!

lotfire,

I have colonels rank, 6 right?
And 199 superfights, with your calulation I would have 199x125 points = 24875 points. Right?

So no, it can't be accurate.

 
H3AT

H3AT Day 364, 02:48

Example: If you had 50 superfights and your rank is Lieutenant (required minimum 31 super fights until now), You will have 3750 force points being still a Lieutenant.

I had 49 superfights + 4 or 5 superfights today, but my total force is 2674 / 4500. You need a calculator to do a multiplication?

So, I've got 50 superfights, but since my Total Force is 2500, it is clear that the multiplicator for the Lieutenant Rank has been set to 50, not to 75.

"On the 24th the list for congressional candidates will be closed and the party president will have the ability to manage the position of the members on these lists."

This is not very clear.

Does it mean that the President is able to decide the official candidates for each region (and the others could not be voted) or that he can just change the order of them?

In the first case, a party could just candidate (total congress seats - wildcards) people, in the second case ANYONE (also member from other parties) can run for the elections for a certain party.

Each one of the two is a very flawed system, could you please explain?

What will happen to single-province countries in the coming elections? The links say that those countries will have 10 congress members, but each party can only promote one candidate in each province. What kind of democracy is that? That means that there has to be 10 different parties in congress, with one mandate each. Or if there is only one party, there will only be one single congressman in congress... Clever, eh..?

Why not try a representative democracy instead? First, the voter choose party, and then the voter choose the candidate within the party. Wouldn't that be a much simplier and just system? Imagine a democracy where every vote counts equal. Implement it.

Good luck
