I will update the first post with relevant data shortly.
Regarding AARs:
Everyone should try and read all the other people's AARs and give them 'cookies' from 1 to 5 for each session. Cookie count multiplied by 0.5 will be the amount of BBs reduced, thus it wont always be 2.5, more like 1-1.5 reduction.
And please try to be fair. Do not think like 'Uhh, he's my enemy, gonna give him 1 cookie for that kick he made last session', think like 'Hehe, that guy is really good, without him game would be tad more boring, and his AAR writing is a brilliant piece of propaganda, he deserves at least 4!'.
In other words, if you feel like using an RL power (meaning this rating system) to alleviate ingame balance, avoid rating at all - I will only be taking in the account the average value of people who post ratings.
This system is meant for fun and historical roleplay.
If you cannot live past your game feelings in forum, you better not play at all, it's not gonna be good for your health.
Also, I will only take into account ratings of players of this game.
Also EGO, please note, that even 2.5 BB is only -1%loyalty per month. In MP games there are often situations when a player or AI manages to grab up to 10+ BBs per single session and it's very hard to get back to low, especially if your piety happens to be low.
Besides, a smaller bonus for an AAR wouldn't really encourage people..
And for all those who think this was
much expansion for first session, I admit that I was being a bit more agressive than usually - I needed to get up to strenght of Poland or be dead. The other two things - pecheneg bash and England's rampage were pretty local and small scale.
As far as I've heard from MTT players, their first session was a level of magnitude more hot.
