Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Thomas, odd that the park reports are so unrelyable, those darned entertainers went on strike, wish I could sue them for neglect of duties. :) The strange thing is, even though I've encreased ticket prices, I still amen't making enough money to keep myself from going into overdraft. My ticket prices and snacks are set at fair, but I'm still paying out more than is coming in. It's really frustrating!

Hi Lori, Well, if you haven't figured this out yet the Park Reports aren't always accurate. What I mean by that they tend to underestimate things like wages, and it is really up to you to find the perfect wage for your employees. If you try to give them the bare minimum, which is what the park report suggests, then of course they will strike. What I do is I try and pay the employees a pound or two more than the minimum wage suggestion which usually keeps them from striking.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Thomas, Funny you should mention that. I believe my last entertainers were being paid something like 10 pounds more than my park staff. I certainly considered firing them more than once, but I wasn't sure precisely what kind of ramifications this might have to the number of customers.

They constantly want more and more money while they are nothing more than a side attraction. The attraction operators and the maintenance do the real work of keeping the park running and they only complain if I don't pay them a decent wage based on what the park takes in. I have fired my entertainers more than once if I thought they were being too greedy.

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss
Hi Thomas, Oh, absolutely. I was simply referring to the previously made suggestion to name them after famous rides straight out of the box. (At least, that's how I read it.)

Namely if all attractions start out with a generic name and there is a way to edit the profile for each attraction and give it your own name and have it spoken by Sapi the copyright holders never need know about it. Chances are they wouldn't know about it unless it was made public somehow. So being able to edit and change the names of the rides yourself need not be a big problem with copyrights and trademarks since it wouldn't officially be a part of the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Thomas, You mentioned that after striking, the employees wanted more than they were being paid before you dropped your wages--something which brought to mind an interesting phrase at the end of the strike eMails. If you recall, it is mentioned that the wage might be negociable. I can't tell if this is simply fluff, or if wage prices are, in some way, actually megociable. Problem is, should the latter be true, I see no way of accomplishing that. Have you had any experience in negociation with them? Perhaps you can just hold off paying them for a week and they will shoot you a new suggestion? I honestly am not sure.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Honestly, I've never once generated a park report. Granted, my first park went bankrupt at sometime around week 65, because I couldn't seem to balance my prices. My second one... I don't even know what happened. It went from a balance of about 300,000 pounds to negative by about that much in two weeks. It was ... I don't even know.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi, I think the concept is that if you raise the wage just a bit, say half of what they're asking for, that's negotiating. But I agree that this needs to be more well-defined in the documentation, or a feature should be added in which you talk to your employees and ask them what they want. It also occurs to me, now that I'm on this subject, that wages should be able to be increased in smaller increments than just a dollar more or less. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure if this can be done in UK currency or not. Much as we have dollars and cents here in the US, are there smaller denominations than just pounds? I feel really silly even asking that, but there you have it.

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss
Hi Emily, The game isn't that sophisticated. If you build a kids roller-coaster the only thing you can decide is where to put it on your park's map. Other than that you can't name it, decide number of passengers, number of loops, etc. There is no way to modify the basic template.

And second, I also want to know if I'm the only one who can't reach the site or if it's a general problem.

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss
How about different kinds of coasters, as in something like Rollercoaster tycoon: wood or steel construction, either straight, hilly, curvy, upside down, etc. Just a thought of something maybe to add to a great game, unique to anything we have on offer.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Desiree, I happen to agree with you. I think wages should be allowed to be in creased in smaller amounts than just pounds, and yes the UK does have change. They call their coins by different names than the US currency, but I think for simplicity sake Nick chose to round up or down to the nearest pound.

But I agree that this needs to be more well-defined in the documentation, or a feature should be added in which you talk to your employees and ask them what they want. It also occurs to me, now that I'm on this subject, that wages should be able to be increased in smaller increments than just a dollar more or less. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure if this can be done in UK currency or not. Much as we have dollars and cents here in the US, are there smaller denominations than just pounds?

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Lori, Perhaps. However, somehow I don't think that will change things much. The consultants only look at the bottom line, what financially would be best for your park, but totally exclude or overlook the human element in their suggestions. For example, if the consultants say your employees should only be paid 3 per hour it is technically correct based on your income, number of customers, etc but not necessarily something your employees would agree to. They may have expectations of earning a wage much higher than that like 8 or 9 per hour, and as the boss it is your job to try and negotiate a wage somewhere between what they want and what the consultants suggest would be financially feasible for your park. So firing the consultants would not do you much good since they are just going to give you the bare minimums when suggesting wages, ticket prices, etc. As long as you know in advance that their suggestions are going to be a little low you can try and increase ticket prices and wages by a couple of pounds over what they suggest to try and find the happy medium.

Hi Hayden, Depends on how popular your park is.

Hi Hayden, Generally when you negotiate with your employees you can try and offer a price and they will either go back to work or still stay out on strike. There is no way to just wait them out. I tried that once and my park went under with everyone stubbornly waiting for me to increase their wages. My strategy is to try and meet them in the middle.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.
Hi Lori, One way to help with keeping yourself out of the red is by slightly raising meal and snack prices. Meal and snack prices will be your main source of income so finding out how much your customers will pay will help as far as currency goes. Another way to help increase profit is find ways to get more customers such as paper and radio adds if you can afford them. Sometimes they will get you nothing and sometimes you may pull in an extra couple hundred customers per week. P.S. As for Steve Jobs he was the former CEO of Apple. However, he died a few months back.

My ticket prices and snacks are set at fair, but I'm still paying out more than is coming in. It's really frustrating! I don't even know who Steve Jobs is, perhaps nick should have made it Bill Gates instead. :) --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
