Proposal:
I suggest that 3 months after the first 7 ww win there is a poll for all active players within a world with the choice of either waiting until there are less than 300 players (as now) or initiating a 28 day countdown immediately. If the majority want the world closed then it is.
If the 7 WW is still in contention I think the existing rules work well.
Have you Checked the DNS and PSI lists in the Archives? Is this idea similar to one that has been previously suggested? I don't think so.
Reason:
In the worlds i have played I have never seen serious sustained fighting after the 7 WW win. The new VM rules also make a difference IMO. We now ask WW players to manage without VM. Whilst I agree with the VM rule, players on WW in stagnant worlds are denied VM for long periods and this affects their ability to fully play other worlds.
Details: Not sure what to say here.
Visual Aids: N/A
Balance: Not sure what to say here.
Abuse Prevention: As its just a vote I don't think this is open to abuse.
Summary:
At the moment worlds close when the number of active players falls below 300. I would like to suggest this is reviewed again. It’s now 5 years since Grepolis instituted this and i think there are times when worlds stagnate for months unnecessarily.
I suggest that 3 months after all 7 WW are completed for the first time there is a vote on whether wait until the world falls below 300 players (as now) or whether to initiate a countdown immediately. An agreed majority % carries it. I suggest 60% but this could be higher if there was concern that a fighting minority would be adversely affected.
