Preparations for the IV PROGRESSIVE GAME for CIV II MPGE

[Kramsib]

I have to tell you that we have new things for this edition.

This time, players will give more information to elaborate several rankings. Although they won't be part of the score, it would be interesting to know more about each player's statistics.

The aditional data is located in the demographics, I have adapted the Progressive Sheet to use this new info.

The new data to include:

Population (for the POPULOUS ranking).
GNP (for the COMMERCIAL ranking).
Mfg. Goods (for the INDUSTRIOUS ranking).
Land Area (for the EXPANSIONISTIC ranking).
Literacy (for the SCIENTIFIC ranking).
Military Service (for the MILITARISTIC ranking).

I have also changed the Victory Bonus, 1 point per year between the victory year and the final year, (2000)

The New Score Scheme.

VI. SCORE SCHEME.

20. For each round, the number of points is given by this formula:

(500 * K) * (Turns Played / Turns of the Round) + Victory Bonus.

21. K is the Kram Indicator and is given by another formula:

[ (Xn – Xn-1) / (Xn – Xn-1)’ ] + [ (Xn / Xn-1) – 1 ] / [ (Xn / Xn-1) – 1 ]’

where

Xn is the civ-score that was get at the end of the n round.

The ( ‘ ) means the highest result achieved by any player.

In other words, the Kram indicator is calculated as the addition of 2 ratios. The first ratio compares the absolute variation of the score of each player with the highest absolute variation got by one of the players. Similarly the second ratio compares the relative variation of the score of each player with the highest relative variation got by one of the players. As both ratios can reach a maximum of 1, the maximum value of the Kram indicator is 2.

22. The Victory Bonus is calculated by this formula:

Victory Bonus = (2000 – year of victory)
Is easy to understand why this formula favours the player who end the game before any other player.
