OK, this poll outlined the basic ideas and the lack of luxury votes means that having higher than 20% will not be an option.
Luxuries:
0% or 10%-nothing happens, so 10% is a waste and is not an option.
20%-our one person is happy
Science:
100% or 90%: 22 turns for tech, +0 gpt (gold per turn)
70% or 80%: 29 turns, +1gpt
40-60%: 31 turns, +2 gpt
30 or 20%: 31 turns, +3 gpt
0 or 10%: no tech, +4 gpt
The reason that 40-60 is left as an option while 20-30 is clearly better (same science, more tech), and that identical options (70 and 80, for example) are both there is twofold:
1. if the new city is founded in the next few turns it may make those rates have different effects.
2. apolyton is about to grow and this will affect the science ad money of each rate.
EDIT: Poll edns in two days (wednesday 6/19). Results of different scince values are based on having no luxuries because the general philophy poll showed little support for having luxuires. Also, our current levels are 0% lux, 90% science.
If there is a tie, there will be a 1 day repoll or if there are clearly more voters close to one of the tied ones it wins. Example of that:
100: 2
90: 5
80: 3
70: 1
60: 0
50: 0
40: 1
30: 5
20: 1
10: 1
0: 0
There are 5 within 10% of 90, and 2 of them would not, in our current situation, have an effect different from that of 90%. On the other hand, 30% has only 2 that are within 10% and only one would have no effect. Because of this major difference, 90% would win.
