Yes, I know that. Poor choice of words on my part. What I meant was that in reading the AAR, it is, as you put it, "literarily written", which made it difficult for me to follow what exactly you did, and what happened on that turn. I'm sure that many (if not most or all) others have no difficulties in this regard.

Dominion is a scale of 1 to 10. It requires no great leap of imagination to equate a ten-point scale with percentages. But you are correct that changing the phrasing from 1-10 to percentages may well confuse some newbies.
You're still confusing the newb in me. How is dominion a scale of 1-10? You stated at the start of your AAR: "With the remaining points we have, I increase Dominion as much as I can (to 5)." How is a 5 a 10? Unless you're equating 1-10 with 10%-100% (like "how would you rate this on a scale of 1-10"). Or, if you're talking about 10 being MAX dominion, then I just missed the part where you built enough temples to raise your dominion from 5 to 10.

I just wish you'd made these comments in my AAR thread, days ago when I'd started, before you gave up. It's hard to know that someone dislikes something if they don't speak up.
Nah. It was clear to me that many people enjoy your writing style, and that they had no difficulties in comprehending each turn. I would not be so presumptuous as to ask that you change your style of writing to accomodate my personal tastes (or ignorance). Your AAR is fine just the way it is, which is why I clearly stated in my post below that I intended no offense, and that it was a matter of my personal preference. Keep up the great work!
