Just trying to get a feel for what sort of information people prefer or feel they would best be able to react to.

Pick any two from the following:
National economic figures = detailed economic numbers and trends, such as housing data, consumer confidence, etc.

Financial information = semi-daily financial data, such as the ANSE, oil and the Atlasian Dollar.

National events = general national occurrences, such as crises or multi-regional events.

Regional events = more region-specific occurrences, such as certain conditions that may require more local legislation (weather situations, local infrastructure, regional economies, etc.)

Foreign events = foreign affairs, such as Atlasian diplomatic relations, the progress of Atlasian foreign initiatives and the like.

     I like the national & regional events. Not a fan of the financial stuff so much.

I have very little interest in economic exactness. I'm much more interested in storylines foreign and domestic.

Really, all I need from the economic front is "It's good or bad/Stocks were up/down" etc.

I voted 3 and 5, but I don't mind 4 either. I'd rather we play out the political side of this game rather than the economic side of it.

Three and four, with five following closely behind. I appreciate one and two, but the final three have a greater impact on Bills we can introduce and action the Government can take.

Regional info is the biggest deal for me personally.

I voted for 3 and 4. Regional info is the most important for me, but I want more national and foreign issues too. Economic should be presented only the essential things.

Everything you've been doing so far minus the manufactured, unnecessary, unrealistic, and random "crisis" in New Mexico.

I do like economic stories quite often, but I understand that not everyone shares my interest in that. Regardless, please don't cater your stories to anything we're saying here. I don't want you to operate as GM in according to popular opinion. That includes what I say, as well. Tongue

Don't worry, I'll likely continue what I'm doing generally. This is more for those days when I'm unsure what to do a story on. It helps me know what people would rather me fill that spot with.

Unlike MArokai I see no problem with bombs blowing up in cities or what not. I understand he is an economics guy.

What about one strategically aimed at a certain person in your region. Wink

I could always do it on the border of two regions. The jurisdiction issues would be fun.

What I find most amusing, I think, is that no one second guesses the power of the Executive. Sort of for expediency's sake I guess.

If forced to choose, 3 and 4.  But 5 is good, too.
