Posts from The required quorum for making changes to the Online Games Rules.

I ask players in the poll to choose the option according to which, in the future, it will be possible to make changes and additions to the existing rules of online games.

The option that receives a simple majority of votes wins in the poll.

I chose options 3 and 7 for myself. Option 3: To change the rules, as many people as possible need to vote for THIS, because everyone will have to play according to them... and 3/4 is the most optimal option of all the proposed ones... and 2/3 is also not bad, but the more votes in favor, the more justified and necessary this decision will be. I completely disagree with the option of a SIMPLE MAJORITY – this could be just 1 PERSON!!!)))) – and I think you’ll agree that this is not the kind of weight that should outweigh such decisions, because the problem is “universal.” As for the games, I vote for a minimum of 15!!! Because after playing such a number of games, a person already gets involved in the online community of the game, playing with a computer and friends on Hotseat, etc., and really begins to understand the essence of things and, in general, what these rules are for and why they exist! It would be possible to make it 10 games, but this should be the minimum quota, because for people without online experience, these rules are not very clear or significant at first. IMHO)))

A minimum of 15 games sounds a bit funny...
Playing in one tournament and being active on the site for a year seems like a reasonable minimum!

Well, I chose from what was suggested in the first post of this thread!))
It doesn't seem to mention anything about tournaments, although it might have been implied...

I meant a minimum of 15 online games if we're talking about simply playing for ranking...

"...a year on the site..." ???

Isn't that a bit too much?

Even for 15 games, it wouldn't take that much time... and 3 months would be enough if there are enough games available...

I am in favor of options 2 and 7. And here is how to change the following point: 5.12. It is forbidden to enter neighboring territories without breaking through the guard stationed at the passage (i.e., if it is moved). If two or three guards are scattered along the road, any one can be broken through. In the absence of a passage guard, including a moved one, it is allowed to freely move from one spawn point to another. In my opinion, this should be clear to everyone, and no voting is needed.

Options 3 and 7.

Options 2 and 7

I'm for 3 and 7. P.S. As an alternative: maybe we can use a weighted average percentage? (but please, no need to vote on this, IMHO :) ) Explanation: Currently, the situation is: 12 - 3 for 50%, 8 - for 66.66%, 11 - for 75%. Let's calculate... (12*50 + 8*66.7 + 11*75) / (12 + 8 + 11) = 63,...% Argument in favor of "+": This more accurately reflects opinions - otherwise, with the current calculation, an absurd situation may arise - more than half believe that more than half of the votes are needed (simply because some are for two-thirds, others for three-quarters - and this division will simply lead to the fact that a simple majority may pass...). Argument against "-": It's complicated and not a round number :). Although for me, the number 9 is no more round than 10 (well, we just have 10 fingers...) P.P.S. I'm not insisting on my calculations at all, just... purely out of love for art ;)

Yes, depending on the results, a second round is possible, where there will only be 2 options.

logical error in the voting – usually, newcomers or those who don't know the game very well vote. As a result, not very good changes are pushed through. I would suggest that all changes be made as on the Heroes portal – discussions, and then a verdict from the gurus (moderators). Here, the AK can easily act as moderators.

Regarding this vote, I am against all three options.

I don't see anything wrong with that, Sasha.
I'm sure that even yesterday's "newcomers" will understand the rules and make the right and necessary choice for them; after all, they will also have to play by these rules.

Look at the Portal's rules on Diplomacy or taking Chests, Campsites, and Gold from under moved guards – there is no logic in the Diplomacy rule, and it's a real mess to figure out the rule about taking things from under moved guards.

I think many people understand this, but due to the lack of a mechanism, everything remains as it is. So, we will also stay in the same place, but if there is a need among the majority of Players (ordinary or qualified) to change something, let it be changed.

Option 1 and Option 7.
