I propose raising the limit on the maximum level of Effectivity Upgrades. In the real world automation is increasing all the time and it now takes far fewer (though more highly educated) employees to produce the same amount of goods. I think the game should reflect the progress that has been made in technology over the last few years by allowing corporations to upgrade to higher levels so they have fewer but more highly educated and better paid employees. This would allow nations and enterprises in the game to reach even higher levels of development then are currently possible, which would add to the games experience. Note: this will not change the ratio of upgrade limits for national/state/private/public corporations, this is just a proposal to increase the limit across the board, private corps will still have a higher limit.

I have proposed this as a poll please vote on this in the voting section of the game, also I am interested to hear people's views on this idea, anyone have any comments?

I agree but perhaps higher effectivity levels should only be available with higher game levels.

I like the idea and I do agree with you, though I think David's suggestion of a game level link for the higher upgrades sounds good.

It would give the higher game levels (Those above 6) have more ongoing significance, as I can see at the moment they only really give a few GC's on a one off basis and a small score component. Making more use of them would make it more worth the effort to attain and hold them.
