Poll : Initial new base queue

Makahlua · September 30, 2002, 21:55

Right! This poll is to help make a basic starting queue so a) we don't have to poll every time something gets finished b) the commish won't have to fiddle with new bases, except in emergencies/overriding orders (need to rush a unit, DoT&C orders a Colony Pod, etc)

How the poll works: Pick the 4 most important things you think a new base needs, and order them by how important - ex. you check P1 for garrison, P2 for Rec Tanks, P3 for a node and P4 for a former. Only pick 4! Yes the queue will include all these things, but you can only have 24 items in a poll , sooo

Poll runs for 3 days, and I'll vote later so i don't influence you

edit : me no can spell good

Good idea, Makahlua.

Voted.

1. Garrison
2. Former
3 and 4. Rec Tanks and Rec Commons...just can't remember in which order

Where is the Colony pod option ? Must it be ALWAYS ordered by the DoTC ?

I agree with Pandemoniak. I won't vote on this poll due to lack of CP and the option of a second former.

The winning choices for priorities 1-3 look pretty darn solid- I know I wouldn't do a CP until turn 4 anyway...

i only voted former, P1, due to lack of CP option

Maniac · October 1, 2002, 15:31

I guess this poll means the end of the "send scout along with the CP" idea?

Makahlua · October 2, 2002, 06:35

*thinks*

Ok, I think I have a way to do this (and make you all happy, I hope!

) Garrison & Former followed by a Rec Tank seem pretty solid as the first 3 choices, so let's concentrate on the latter half now. My thought is for a second poll with these options (this time prioities 4-7) :

Rec Tanks, Net Node, CP + escort, Rec Commons

Anything I missed that sould be in the first half dozen or so things built? And those who wouldn't vote before, would you put the CP + escort earlier than #4? (And please either vote or write in your options to make sure our first 3 are a true reflection of the people's will!

)

Or I could just start from scratch and break it into two polls, but I originally thought that might be -too- confusing

I did think that idea of Maniac's of the CP + scout escort very early on was great. The more bases the earlier the better.

I withhold my vote because of lack of this option.

This is a good format, by the way. Much better than mine.

Makahlua, after the turnchat of tonight, could you please post a new poll like this one again with a colony pod as the third build option or so? I'm sure the poll would have looked different with that option. Also perhaps with the option of "scout unit" and "2nd former" included?

Pandemoniak · October 2, 2002, 13:04

If you cannot put it in one poll, spread it in two, and just make a link from one to another, and reciprocally

.

maka->this poll format is a good idea, but maybe you could do this again, replacing the 2nd garrison with CP and network node with 2nd former/garrison.
