so the string length isnt correlated actually whatever you put in the result is random between different types of outcomes (very good, good, mediocre, I think). This was a tough decision that I thought a LOT about because idk this seems important but these are the main reasons behind:
- it would be quite technically complex to judge the proposals meaningfully, best I could do would probably be an HTTP call to a LLM but that would prevent offline play.
- that way I can balance the experience for everyone, i.e. make a run where you do politics "relatively easy but not guaranteed", i.e. make sure you can win without too much effort but you do need a sustained investment, its not just a one-click thing. Creating that vibe is what I focused on.
- finally, and perhaps most importantly, I didnt want to bias the game with my own political thoughts, I wanna be open to every radical proposals. for instance i dont believe personally that anarchism would work well, but i do wnat to encourage people to think in that direction and maybe try it out even. It's in a spirit of "no bad idea except doing nothing", though ofc you can enter bad ideas and still get points as a side result xD but maybe someone has an amazing idea that nobody has ever seen, and it would be the opposite of the game spirit to discourage that.
