We can do this, but I have a few issues. I would prefer the data only be collected from that particular crew for use only in that particular crew, or possibly, we can do it district wide since the data pool would be quite small for just a single crew.  Should this be rank based or unit based? Should it be split?  (Somethings are pretty much static earnings regardless of units, the other like drugs are really based just on units)

Personally I would have hoped for as large a pool as possible, but I can still understand your reluctance, so I would be happy with District in that case , my theory is the wider the pool the less chance of working out individual values, such as only having 2 earners in your family, and asking one to bank every penny he earns into the NY bank. At the end of the week you look at the other earner and see he has 106%, well then you know exactly how much he earned. I would also just keep it rank based if possible, the reason for this is CLs etc tend to look at earnings by rank, rather than by units, at least in my experience, but off course if one way is substantially easier for you to do over the other, then I bow to your expertise.

Made+ and non associates you mean?

Yeah, that's what I meant.

Should the associates be left completely off of the tax board as the upper structure can see, they just see it combined into the sponsors numbers?

Ideally I think no, because again some crews love their earnings lists, but of course this would be based on what the majority of the user base wanted, not what i wanted.

Absolutely 100% not, this is not something that should ever be automatic, it would be extremely detrimental for the game, the crewleaders, and new players to the point where it can't even be remotely considered.  This is the 2nd most important role in the entire game all together, and actually the single most important person in the game for any new players for first week or two of playing.  The success of this game lives or dies depending on the sponsors.  Lets not give it to everyone.

That's fine, it has no major impact on the suggestion,  it was more to perhaps alter the way Made Man rank is viewed by the players, but I can fully understand your concerns.


So as long as you would be happy with all of that in that case, i suppose we need feedback from the user base.
