Do the Religious Shrines work?

[Mark Walton]

Results:

8 worlds with no shrines received the following results in 200 turns.
world 1 - 6 events
world 2 - 10 events
world 3 - 12 events
world 4 - 15 events
world 5 - 10 events
world 6 - 6 events
world 7 - 15 events
world 8 - 15 events

World with the "bad" shrine: 6 events.

Note, this does not appear to be a significant result; this is the lowest of the shrine-less world results.

World with the "good" shrine: 0 events.

This does appear significant. I will test further, but it seems that a -10,000 value has stopped all events.
As a quick thought, perhaps this is 100ths of a percent - possibly the code turns the value into a percent by dividing by 100, but accidentally does this twice?

More tests at a future date (apologies for delay, I have had flu)

Edit:
To be fair, I ough to test with a -100 value didn't I? That will be the next test
