I edited your poll to get rid of the italic tags.

I also tried to make you and Admin again, but I got this message: "Only the root admin can edit his/her account "

I am voting for a qualitative guide, with forces based on a percentage of population, and quality of equipment based on budget, tbd later.

Paradise, if Nag sends you the adress to the admin CP, you should be able to manually log in and make yourself an admin.

Hum, really? Is that related to the "root admin" thingy?

You get 10 CPs minimum using the 1st formula.

You can't go under 10, even if you don't tax.

So thats all that non-taxing nations are going to get? They'll get 10. Period?

You still get 10 PeaceCPs for a professionnal army, but you can also rush the training of conscripts with WarCPs. That should give you a decent defensive force.

So it has nothing to do with PDAs at all. Thats not even remotely a factor? Screw that, I want to take my vote back.

The inclusion of "PDAs" would make libertarian countries too strong. What's the point of taxing your population if you can be beaten by a libertarian country that doesn't tax at all?

I think you are biased, you don't view the global thing as I do.

Well I think I like Nag's perportional to Paradise system is the best for everyone.


After reconsidering I realized that like Esternarx said in the WWIII thread our type countries are really more of the producing countrys. And I would agree except for the fact that my country is really more of a high level management, I mean I really have no industry, (3 bil+ trade deficit) AND my people are mostly all rich (but unhappy).

I really don't know what could realistically happen to Flumes in the case of a global war, 2.5 bil population, GDP (per captia) is always around 40,000, (36-44 varies...) which is very high. Yet I put more $ into defense then anything else, I guess I prob. have a high tech defense system, but it is also mandatory for all men to join the armed services after high school.

Here is the NSE link if anyone wants to help me figure out what Flumes is going to do, plz note that my GDP is the lowest its been it about 1/2 year, due to my experiment with outlawing Cars ( :lol: ) like I said it is usually around 40.

Uh... if you'd PM'd me or said anything to me over msn, I'd have done it in two seconds flat. I just assumed you didn't want the hassel.

Ok first off, I'm splitting this. [Edit] No I'm not. Too hard.

Secondly, this was the worst judgement call Paradise made since making me admin again! So long as people like Norightsia are saying they hate the winning idea, then something is obviously wrong.

Anyone got any other ideas as to how to work the military?
