OFFICIAL: What to use the GL on.

[UnOrthOdOx]

Never mind.

I was going to do a spider diagram but they're really hard

I hate statistics

Anyway it's not as if any poll on this subject wouldn't show Zu as the winner.

I'm no math wiz, but this is elementary math. If the odds are 1/16, that means that you should get a GL once every 16 wins. The math works like this: let's say we get 8 wins with an elite units. 8 times the 1/16 chance --> (1/16)*(8/1) = 8/16 = 1/2.

Now I'm not sure how many wins we're going to get in the next turn, but it's certain that the more you win, the lower the odds that you get a GL.

Frankly, I'm in the VAST minority that would like to see a FP built with the GL (and I'm the only one), but I understand the point of those who want Sun Tzu NOW as opposed to later. It doesn't so much have to do with that wonder over another, it has to do with using the leader ASAP, so as to increase our chances of another appearing.

Finally a voice of reason!

OK. I abstain.

I would personaly build an army of swords.

Remember, if we build sun tzu's, the AI will switch to building michaels chapel, and with all the shields they already have built up, we will have no chance to build it. Also, if invention becomes available prior to running out of shields (ie prior to michaels being built) then the AI will also probably get that one also. So think hard. The FP we can switch to anytime as that is a minor wonder and I wouldn't waste a GL on one unless in dire straights.

OK. I will most likely do the will of the people unless it is something stupid like a temple rush...... in which case I will order what I feel is best for our nation and hope the prez agrees enough to follow.

The recent events surrounding the GL debate has taught me two things:
1. None of you know math. Just kidding.
2. When the same option wins by a significant margin in one poll and by huge margins in two other polls it means that the people support it. You do something else like waiting and you're directly disobeying the people's will.

I demand Art of War!!! Heck, maybe if all new units are vets, we can build less new units and build PEACEFUL stuff instead!

Peace!

BUILD IT THIS TURN! Don't let bureacracy interfere!

Peace!

*This has been a public protest brought to you by the DIA*

[jdd2007]

an army is so appealing, but constructing a wonder would be a huge, even better event.

SUN TZU!

For everyone not in the Turnchat...

Based on the decision of the relevent ministers, a quick-poll of the people there, and the results of the poll here, there was a nearly unanimious decision to build Sun Tzu's in Ubergorsk. It has been completed, and we have it now.

More details will come later, but I didn't want to keep pepole wondering...

I wanted an army too, but faces with overwhelming public opinion for Sun Tzu (I still don't know why ), I decided it was the choice.

[wervdon]

I don't blame you MrWhereItsAt, but I think this is probally the biggest mistake we've made in the game so far. If we don't get another leader between now and when the persian war ends or get theology from another source, then I know it is

[notyoueither]

/me writes the book on how to ensure that the option you oppose gains overwhelming support.

[GodKing]

NYE - can you please send me a signed copy of your book......

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

We need to start a serious plan to get Theology so that if another leader is created we can build the Sistine Chapel. If not then I feel the next one should be used for an Army.
