Emperor Tax

Right now Emperors have two perks: a little crown next to their name, and the ability to send mass-messages to everyone in the game.

In some past Turbo rounds, we've had Emperors set up that taxed everyone in the game...about 0.005-0.02% of cash and food gained per turn (it doesn't sound like much but over time, and from every player in the game, it's somewhat significant).

A lot of players thought this was pretty neat, and I think it provides a little more incentive for other players to unseat the Emperor. The Emperor can control how much the tax is...so if they want, they can be a benevolent Emperor and set the tax to 0. Or they can be greedy and set it to max.

What do you guys think?

Thats how it should be  :)

No sure if its been mentioned yet, but this used to be standard.

At least for some reason I remember it being standard.

I think it would be hilarious, and more severe too. More incentive to pay attention to the clans that jump early rather than ignore events until the last week of the round.

i say let them have an evil tax collector to go round knocking on their doors and charging 70% tax just to be meaner.

[Rakefur]

I think different networths should be able to be taxed different amounts.

[Pippin]

the bigger the emp the larger the hold on land and control, i like it.

Having official emps wasn't really standard until a few months ago. We just had emp themes before that, and I think we had the tax feature in two or three or those themes.

Last reg round, Holby taxed everyone over 100 million networth. Doesn't have to be official, but would be cool if I actually was emp and taxed people.

[Pippin]

wouldnt officially call that a tax but similar i suppose, a net cap.

[Dark Claws]

True, would actually be cool if there was a robot account that was there to aid the emp in collecting taxes.

[Pippin]

i'd do it for free, sacking and stealing is my specialty. and i'd keep 90% of it.

Why would you need an account to collect taxes?

[Pippin]

BECAUSE AN EVIL TAX COLLECTOR FOR AN ALMIGHTY RULER IS ESSENTIAL.

[Uiblis]

Corrupted tax collector like you would just take everything.

90% actualy
