Issues don't seem to influence stats anymore

I'm receeiving two issues a day, but for about the last two weeks my statistics are frozen. Since they changed quite rapidly before that certain point and my nation is still quite young I rather doubt that this is just a result of monotonous decisions. Anyone knows help? :(

IIRC, this is a known problem. Try leaving your region, and then comming back, that might fix it.

Yes, but I don't think that this is the case. Apparently, Larundia is still receiving the two issues a day.

I don't think leaving your region will fix anything.

I don't believe you are experiencing a technical problem. The more issues you answer a certain way, the harder it will be to make a sudden change. Take Tiborita for example. I have been answering issues pro-business for some time. It would take some time to reverse that history to make Tiborita anti-business.

Basically, a new nation is like steering a speed boat. The more issues you answer, the more the steering is like an oil tanker. The more issues you answer, the harder it will be to see change in your nations standings.

While I whole heartedly agree with this analogy... the nation in question is only a month old (62mil) and as such, I dont think this is the issue at hand.

That only happens to nations with 500 mil. plus population. And even me (Czardas) have changes in my stats -- just today, for example, my economy went down to Fragile from Developing, and my civil rights went up from Superb to Excessive, while my political freedoms are justly stuck at Corrupted -- they can't go any higher, lol. It's either a bug, or the result of issue-answering.

If you make a concerted effort to change your behaviour, then the stats will change, regardless of how old you are. In a couple of months I've gone from Iron Fist Socialist to Civil Rights Lovefest. And Enn's far older than Czardas.

Plus there's the fact that I'm usually going for the more bizarre options, just to see what happens.[/topic hijack]

Larundia, I'm not sure what's going on. I'd suggest waiting until a mod or Sal has a look. It might be an idea to file a Getting Help request as well.
