  • Science target after Polytheism/Alternate target in case of unselectable targets.

    So I think it might be good to be a few steps ahead, o we can do the science polls 48 hours.

    Let me get this straight:

    You want us to vote for something after Polytheism being researched, but in case Polytheism isn't researchable, even if Monotheism wins this poll (wich would be useless), all the combo Mathematic-Astronomy needs is to be in second place, so it can become the path of science, meaning that only after Astronomy being researched we will research Polytheism!


    Why don't you forget about combos when you poll about wich science to pursuit in case of an unselectable target, like you did last time, Gramphos?
    I honestly don't know what might the outcome be!

      Well, the combos will not be followed fully in case it is unselectable, but ony the first tech, and as soon as selectable again we will continue to Polytheism.

      If Monotheism winns I'll have to add that to the current target, and make a poll for target 4, as a backup is needed, but hopefully won't be used.

        Agreed.

        I just don't understand why do we need the wheel for! It already has 3 votes!

          What can I say. The science polls are unpredictable...

            This is an island world. Navigation will have great value, and the earlier the better!

            We probably won't get offerred monotheism immediately upon getting polytheism anyway.

              be4 anything else we need our ppl happy(otherwise it's useless even to have the most advanced weaponery and fleet if we can't build collonies on the other side of the globe.)

              some statistics:
              there are # ways to vote for ??
              1 Banking
              4 Construction
              3 Feudalism
              5 Mathematics
              1 Medicine
              2 Monotheism
              3 The wheel
              1 Chivalry
              1 Bridge Building
              3 Astronomy
              2 The University
              1 Navigation
              1 Theory of Gravity
              1 Theology
              2 Engineering
              1 Invention

              Confussing don't you think?.
              also take a look at some of the combos?
              combo 1 A->B->C
              combo 2 A->B->C->D

                I've already counted them and then decided to add the Theology combo to give the Monotheism voters more options.

                Confussing don't you think?.

                No, not at all.
                also take a look at some of the combos?
                combo 1 A->B->C
                combo 2 A->B->C->D

                It is intended. Someone maybe doesn't want to go the full way, so I always keep optins for anywhere at the path. That also prevents me for doing too long combos.

                  little question :"do you keep those votes when you put up the poll for the next tech?"(since it looks like we poll for each tech)

                    We haven't poled for each tech, and no, I don't count in votes from earlier polls, However I look at them when deciding if I should add more combos including some techs, and remove combos including others. I might remove the Engineering combo, as it hasn't had a vote since the Invention combo were introdused.
