heh, I just finished some work, and went onto TC2 to check out the jedi stuff


as far as I've heard, the "19 questions" were meant to replace the 10 questions, because 380 questions all at once is just nasty O.o

No - they aren't replacing them - TH is giving 19 answeres each week (check the title of THs thread - it's answers, not questions) - for 20 weeks in 2 week shifts - adding up to the 380 questions - 10 questions for each correspondant (35 professions + GCW + Star Wars + PAs)


Bajeezus originaly collected "our 10 questions" 4 months ago (see link in post above) - but since there where so many correspondant changes and time passed those questions might not be up to date anymore. Now we have to recollect the 10 quetions (well, we only have 8 to go) and vote which to ask first (since that seamed to work - although I was under the imression, that TH took the original 10 questions per profession, and tried his best to bring these to the dev in charge over the last 4 months - I was suprised, that our 2 questions asked where altered


Or did TH ask for even more newquestions?

well, that's what I meant (having 1 question every 2 weeks *instead* of the 10 questions all at once), guess it was just bad wording on my part =/

the reason I call it the "19 questions" is because that's how TH calls it on the correspondent forum O.o Since Baj was MIA and I didn't know back then that it was suppose to be related to the 10 questions, so I started a poll on it.

I would much prefer to have a new set of questions, since some of the old questions are outdated, and I want the politician community to actively participate in picking which question to ask each week. This is what a lot of the correspondents I know are doing, and I figured I will stick with that approach

I'm all in favour of us asking.....


"At present, Master Politician is the only top level profession in the whole game that does not grant a player any extra/special abilities or skills. The ability of Master Politicians to declare their city an Industrial Society or a Scientific Society was originally the reward for mastering this profession, however it was removed at Patch 6 without explanation. When can we expect the Master Politician to again have a unique skill/ability?"

ooh! nicely written although currently everyone's giving me a different question =/

Can we all agree on one question so I can submit it when it's due?

Hehe how about...



"With the soon to be published Jedi Revamp if my Master Politician becomes Master Jedi Knight/Politician he/she would obviously have the power to move boulders and trees that happen to be taking up prime relastate however will he/she gain the power to use the force to lift houses and propell them out of his/her city radious and into the swamp. Yoda taught us size does not matter when it comes to the force. "


If not could you please ring George Lucas and tell him he has no idea what his on about. Pfft Jedi moving boulders as if...



Ok so maybe you dont feel we would get a reply so in that case I would vote for the Master Box question. Although I would ask it with the point of willthey get it done before JTL other wise they will just say " yes future publish " which is fairly useless information.

Oh yeah - forgot to put a timer on it to avoid the "we will do it when we do it" type response

Well the last poll had

- "Raising Caps" with 6 votes(which was asked last week)

- "The Master Box" in second place with 4 votes

- "Mayor Resignation" and "Alternative /citywarn" both with 2 votes


In this thread I count (taking into account, that a list with several questions has the top point as priority):


- 5 votes for "The Master Box"

- 2 votes for "Mayor of ..." Profession Title

- 1 vote for "Detailed Finance Report" (also high in a multiple point list) (though it is rather one of our top 5)

- 1 vote for "Raise Decoration Limit" (also high in a multiple point list)

- 1 vote for "Clarify Effect of Specialisations"


- 1 vote for "Apart from the GCW what is planned til JTL"
- 1 vote for "Why should we even bother until JTL"

- 1 vote for "Something about Jedi having thepower to move trees and politicians getting power to move houses as Yoda taught us size does not matter"


So seams most people are interessted in "The Master Box" - and the "nicely written" question from StumanKadir would ask just that (plus integrating a "timer" to avoid the "we will do it when we do it" answer)

I know Thanks for doing a vote count, I wanted to make sure that most people agree on one topic before we proceed.

due to my rl troubles (moving, loads of work, plus the internet at my new place isn't behaving so I can't stay online for more than a few minutes at a time.) I'm getting "code monkey O" (my boyfriend, as Panthu calls it) to try to fix my connection while I do some work, but this might take a bit Since it seems like the popular vote is on master skill level box, mind if I borrow your wording of the question StumanKadir?

now let me post this (and some other stuff) before my connection dies again

By all means Pappi - you could include Prelaunchs idea also on the timing so that we dont get the standardised "after everything has been done" answer.

Dont ask the add decorations question. That has already been answerd for the architects as thier question. I dont recalll the answer exactly but it went something along the of " We are redoing venders code to see how much room that frees up of the database and until we get that done we wont know how much room if any we add to other areas like items per house/factory/crate and so on. "


Umm incase I didnt make it clear they didnt say exactly that but its something like that.


Also the specializations question will be answerd with words from the holocron's description followed by some line about " it is working as intended " so dont expect them to hand out math formulas in a 1 page essay on how they work. The dev answers seem to always be 3 or 4 lines long tops. Ummm well the ones I have read anyway.
