PoliticalStudent 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2017 Anthony I've been witnessing something in the game. If I am playing like candidate A in a more than three person race. lets say A started with 1% B with 48% C with 51% after months candidate A grew to A: 45% B: 44% C: 16% candidate C withdraws endorsing nobody new percetange show: A: 45% B: 55% Question: Why A doesn't get anything? * I might be at +50 momentum and still nothing for me(A).

admin_270 82 Report post Posted November 2, 2017 I would have to look at the algorithm for this in detail to give a definitive answer, but offhand the answer is that B and C are closer in terms of their platforms. The algorithm for this kind of conversion will be looked at when adding Favorability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm excited about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
admin_270 82 Report post Posted November 2, 2017 I'm finalizing the PMI - UK update, then a PMI - Canada update. Then a PI update incorporating those changes and finalizing direct pop. vote. Then CI update. Once all that's done, I'll come back to PI and Favorability. Perhaps 1st quarter 2018. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do either or both of those PMI updates feature, or even beta-test, any of the alternate parliamentary electoral systems (basically everything but FPTP), that I've been going on about of late, perchance?

admin_270 82 Report post Posted November 3, 2017 @Patine Nothing is planned in this respect in the near future. These updates are mostly to consolidate the changes already done to the PMI - UK game engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
admin_270 82 Report post Posted November 3, 2017 PI will include direct pop. vote, which will allow for simulating all the individual gubernatorial, senatoral, congressional, and mayoral campaigns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
