First of all, a solid viewable hierchy tree. You look at it and see a horizontal tree of who recruited who and what type they are (sleeper, in court, etc) in some nice colours. Secondly, a way to move people up and down on this hierchy, like designating new leaders. Example: Mr.A recruits Mr.B, Mr.B recruits Mr.C, Mr.B says "you now work under Mr.A, not me" to Mr.C.
About new game modes, I have three ideas.
Newbiemode: No severs and no headshots on friendly side of a combat.
Assaultmode: This makes the primary goal of the game combat, and not converting ppl.
lcS: Instead of starting with a single founder, you start with 1 squad of them, 6 very angry liberals ready to recruit in the name of liberalism.
Well that's about it, but some sort of medical skill would be nice too :)
^.^ Don't mind me, I'm actually starting to *gasp* enjoy math.
quote:"Math Fortress?" Hmm. It has potental. Can you keep your variables from being integrated by the dark armies of differential calculus? Derive constants out of the harsh, polynomial curves that define your mountain, then have your little 'n's and 'x's assemble them into equations capable of stopping the logarithmic threat.

On a side note, your jokes were funny.
About Eagleon's equation. It doesn't match real life. God knows how advanced or simplified the relationship structure of a group of ppl can be, and if you assume a group of n=50 ppl will stick to 1 partner only, won't that mean n / 2 = #ofrelationships while n = 51 would be n(n-1)/2...
Why do I get the feeling somewhere in my logic there is a deep fundamental error? Please be so kind to point it out.
[EDIT:] I have learned from a trusted source that, in fact, god DOESN'T know how advanced or simple the relationship structure of a group can be. He hasn't even had 1 date for crying out loud!
[EDIT2:] I just figured out the fundamental error in my logic, please disregard the part where I say the formula is wrong, while it is, in fact, quite right... I think... While my formula is prolly all wrong. God is still a fool that cannot find a date though.

n!/[(n-k)!k!]
where the ! is factorial, ie
n! = n*(n-1)*(n-2)*...*3*2
If you plug in k=2, you get n(n-1)/2.

That hierarchy tree and promotion thing is in the game -- you were suggesting how to make it look nicer and more informative? You can't demote people since once Mr. C knows about Mr. A, he can give that info after being tortured by the police. This is what the hierarchy shows you -- who knows what.
