So that’s:

Brendan 12%
Habanero 11%
jjm3x3 10%
JonathanDark 8%
Josh 23%
Kevan 12%
redtara 6%
Summai 7%
Taiga 10%
Titanic 1%

Anyway this is an obvious no for me for a variety of reasons, but the methodology is a pretty high offender: stone is a resource that having less of signifies better peformance, and focus is meaningless in terms of merit as it resets every Building.

Just doing it on Expertise as a pure merit split is interesting:

Brendan 12%
Habanero 0%
jjm3x3 0%
JonathanDark 1%
Josh 63%
Kevan 17%
redtara 0%
Summai 8%
Taiga 8%
Titanic 0%

Shouldn’t jjm3x3 have -84% then? :P

I set them to 0 as if they’re included in the total then I should have 114% win equity which I don’t think would play well :D

I can tweak the methodology if you like, Josh, but you see the principal here.

changing 0+stone to 100-stone and discounting focus yields:

Brendan 9.211495947
Habanero 8.400884304
jjm 9.43257185
jonathandark 5.084745763
josh 24.76050111
kevan 9.285187915
redtara 1.105379514
summai 14.73839352
taiga 10.61164333
titanic 7.369196758

So maybe the 1% figure for me was right all along…

*principle. Blame it on ‘equity’, a horrible finance word.

I do see the principle… I think the most honest reflection of the principle is just expertise totals, as that was the only resource that was plugged to a victory criteria.

Equity is not a finance term! I mean, I guess it’s used in finance, but…

“Making proposals trying to resolve this situation” is also explicity tied to victory conditions, and is arguably more nomicky and meritorious than anything else. In fact, by that metric, I’m twice as meritorious as anyone else. One might say I’m being very generous with these numbers!

First of all absolute hilarity at -84% it was hard earned! Second I totally get basing portions based on Expertise as that was the only thing originally linked to victory conditons, but as was pointed out, now that we are determining a chop which is arguably even more nomic, it feels bad to me to not get anything after playing and participating the whole dynasty. I am not asking for much just a lil consolation prize. In a way I suppose this ask reflects my take on Kevan’s call out that handing out victory based on attendance would set a bad precident, but I totally disagree. Obviously we don’t want the whole thing to be random winners all the time, but simply showing up is part of the game. Life and games frequently have some amount of chance baked in. Pretending we can build a perfectly meritcraic process feels like a fools errand as well as cultivating an environment that isn’t totally welcoming.

This was a mistake.
