Poll: Science rate

[Oldbus]

As of 1553 AD:

Our Science rate is currently 20%. We have 684 (+47 per turn). We are currently researching Banking which will be completed in 22 turns.

I propose, as a Citizen's Initiative, that we increase the Science rate.

Poll options:

• 30%: +23 per turn, Banking in 15
• 40%: +1 per turn, Banking in 11
• 50%: -24 per turn, Banking in 9
• 20%: leave as is
• Abstain

The option with the most votes will win. The poll will be open for 3 days.

I have voted for 50% - let's use the money we've got to try and gain an advantage.

Going by the book, there should be a discussion first.

Sometimes getting the action going is more important than the book. If there are any substantial complaints about not having a discussion, then this might be revisited, but for now this initiative looks valid to me.

I do have a question though, do any of our opponents have this tech? If they don't and there is reason to believe we'd get there first, then I would be more inclined to support the negative GPT 50% level. If someone has it or will likely get it, then 40% would be what I'd choose.

I'd rather gain eleven gold than lose 216. It would take some time to get that back.
