10x income bonus.

When you vote on an up and coming update you receive 10x your income in naq.

However, I believe that this is unfair. As maybe the latest to join out of the active bunch, 10x my income is 50,000 naq, I wouldn't even like to guess 10x the highest income. I feel this is just slowly pushing a further gap between the smaller and bigger players.

I believe the amount for voting should be fixed and not a multiple of income.

I know this is just a Beta, but the difference that continues to grow makes the game less enjoyable every day.

Re: 10x income bonus.

I hear what your saying.

I like to think I have one of the largest incomes. It sits around 25k/turn. While 10x this value is 250k, compared to your 50k, it is pittens compared to what you can farm. Some of the largest farming hits I've had, have been around the 150k+. Effectively meaning the difference is nothing, if you were to hit these accounts.

If you do believe it should be based on a set value, or a slowly increasing value, what would you suggest. The problem I find with a set value, lets say 1m naq, after a few months, your better off going and farming that, then spending the time to read the vote options and vote (as it would be for you at this point in the game)

I am open to suggestion. If you have an idea, post it in the suggestion section. That was we can brain-storm it out, and perhaps find a better way to reward voters.

Yeah, but still like for a few seconds time you gain 200K more naq if you know what i mean.
I still believe with a fixed rate it will work. It may be farmed easy, however uses turns. If someone offered me 500 bil naq in main for simply voting, i'd do it, it's free. Same with this. I'd still do it as, it takes up a few seconds of my time, when i've hit all my farms, so i gain extra naq.

Re: 10x income bonus.

Right, but what if it was only 500m naq? Because the value hadn't been changed in a few months/years (like the new account stats). At any rate, I'll get the question out there on the game, and see what people think.

Re: 10x income bonus.

:-k

Question would be, is this exploitable by people making multies? Though perhaps could be achieved in a similar way the start accounts could be worked out. By the average of a percentage of the top accounts. Could make it more universal :)

Re: 10x income bonus.

Voting is in and live yes. Currently, there is nothing being voted on.

If you want to vote on something, post in the suggestion sections about what you'd like to see, and we can put it up for a vote to see if people ingame like the idea.

Re: 10x income bonus.

Ah right, perhaps I'll re-word it some what. But yes, the bonus is for voting when there is a vote.
