Jerzul 1 Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 What is the point of this? I saw Anthony's explanation: Universal Shift is a way to shift the total numbers for a candidate in the primaries. For example, a value of “20″ would increase all the total percentages for that candidate by 20% more than they are set to. If they are set to 10%, they would become 12% in the primaries when a game is started. But why? Why not just adjust the poll numbers directly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let's say that you have created a 1980 scenario state by state and at the completion of your work George Bush has a large lead over Ronald Reagan in the popular vote. A quick reduction or increase in Bush or Reagan, respectively, nationally using the universal shift setting saves you having to go back and edit the points for 55 primaries.

Got it, that's what I thought it meant, but I was unsure. Thanks Bear! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
