Greetings,

It was suggested at the OOC Chat that a monthly 'metric influence' event was too long. We changed it to monthly from weekly by player request.

Before we just change it, can we confirm if people in general find it too slow at one month?

Warm regards,
Kinaed

Two weeks might not be perfect, but it seems like a good compromise for now. Worth trying out for a while at the very least

How about 2.5 weeks, roughly half a month?

Willing to give the fortnight a try. Though, I wonder if it might also be a good idea to have the IP payout on the same schedule. One week was too short to get anything done with IP, but I'm not sure it needs to be monthly.

I'd agree that having IP turnover and the metrics voting match time wise would be great.

IP turnover absolutely needs to be more frequent, even just put it back to the week as I don't get why it was changed.

I agree, the IP turnover being a month makes it less advantageous to use IP if you want to be sure you have enough for the metrics vote. This limits using it for the rumour system, influence events, etc. I would like to see a more frequent turnover and more uses for IP (like spending IP to comment a second time on a rumour or whatnot). I've also noticed little difference in IP calculations between being powerfully or moderately supported. My suggestion would be either more value to support translating into more IP or a more frequent turnover.

I still like the month turnover for metrics, but would like to see more plots involved, which I think would fit that timeframe more. There seemed to be some at the start but I haven't noticed much as a result lately. Perhaps it's worth to explore how to fit plots best into this in parralel to changing times.

I should possibly open this up on another thread discussion, but while we are considering possibly IP turnover time, I'd put forth the idea of IP only turning into one silver when buying a single rumour can cost a lot more than that.

*bump*

With Assets now soon coming in to play - was the two week turnover for metrics decided on? And was the bug with the current timer on them fixed, as currently it says:

The current cycle will end in -17328 days. [-17328:-2:-41]

Yes, we're at two weeks. As mentioned, after that first two weeks since fixing, the timer should be right again - and looks like it is now.
