Thought i'd add my own voting (i dont remember voting before)

My first vote goes to the greatest idea:
14.Introduce race specific anger modifiers (i.e. blood feuds)

Second vote:
13.Introduce anger modifiers for the use of certain components or facilities

Third vote:
8.Introduce “Damage Only” by family number(s)

Fourth vote:
3.Jammers working to block viewing ship in tactical combat as well (< great idea)

And Last, fifth vote:
1.Components that do research/intel functions

Though the Last one should have ship-only or base-only limitation so it wont be abused.

Hmmm... research cubicle hell, sounds perfect for pirates in P&N

Okay, no time to tally the votes before I go home today, so I'll do 'em tomorrow. Lucky for those who would like to vote, unlucky for the rest of us.

Well, here's the final tally on the votes!

[Richard: I'm hoping that you can help me with forwarding this to MM/Aaron. This message probably won't suffice, it's rather sparce on details. If you can help me, I'd rather write up details on the top 15 choices, and then email it to you. Thanks]

General Statistics:
-total votes cast 205
-top 5 choices received 43% of votes
-top 10 choices received 67% of votes
-distribution is standard bell curve, slightly wide std. dev.

The Winners:
Top 15 choices in descending order of popularity:

#12 a-c, spread out/orbit satellites around planets, 13% of votes
#29, mouse wheel support, 9%
#1, components with research and intel functions, 7.5%
#7&8, more “damage only” categories, 7.5%
#22, add “system randomizer” to editor, 6%

#23, add more warp point types, 5.5%
#4, give drones “move to” in orders menu, 5%
#14 , introduce race specific anger modifiers (a.k.a. the blood feuds modifier), 5%
#16, , teach AI to utilize captured populations (utilizing atmospheres) 4.5%
#26, auto-resupply by en routeships running low on supplies, 4%

#6, option to not require star for some types of constructed planets, 3.5%
#17, improve AI combat tactics… esp. “just out of range” and “in & out of range”, 3.5%
#13, introduce anger modifiers for the use of certain components or facilities, 2.5%
#15, give “declare war” teeth. If human or AI agrees, enforce the war footing, 2.5%
#24, racial points used to buy starting technologies, 2.5%

The mouse wheel was the only anomalous topic, with 9% of the votes, but only 5 individuals voting for it. For the most part these voters (more accurately ‘devotees’)
cast all their votes for #29. I think that I should have limited the number of votes per topic to 3 per person to even this out, but too late now.
