Yes, but panag seems to be suggesting that part of the board's job would be playing ahead...

hi ,

and so what , lets say , a person does , on his own , just to see what he or she would like , big deal , ....

and no-one talks about playing ahead , just to create a scenario , so that when asked , this and that option can be presented , ......

have a nice day

In the civ2 demo game, almost every single turn is saved and will be released when the game is over for people to see and if they want play from. We could do the same here. But while we're playing, playing ahead for any purpose invariably changes the poll results and is cheating.

who? you??? the majority decided tp have a reporter, so that's how it is. The minority always suffers in a democracy, but unless it's like discrimination or similar things (which i dont think there will be in this game0 it is completely fair.

Actually, this poll decided that the savefile would be available to everyone.

You know, I have no clue what you're saying here. I think you're just responding somehow just because you have nothing else to say, but I could be wrong.

There was an official poll which traded the release of the savegame file for the creation of a Reporter position/department, and that's how it will be. Playing ahead will ruin the game because people will know what happens, and that's not fun... this is supposed to be as realistic as possible, and that's one way not to do it.

hi ,

and that is what should be done , ....

its a way to play the game , to be involved , and to feel more like a "citizen" , ....

punk: the reporter poll specifically said that a "no" vote would mean everyone gets the save. Having a reporter was more popular than everyone getting teh save.

And a poll here created afterwards in regards to the poll you posted made it so that there will be a Reporter, and the save file won't be released. 60% to 40%, you can't argue with numbers.

The question was phrased exactly that, was clear and concise, and more people voted to hold the save than to release it.

Trip, why don't we just make a poll asking whether people should be allowed to play ahead so panag will shut up?
