Your guess is as good as mine?Minoa wrote:I wish to ask which of the notables (e.g. absence of drug laws, restrictive gun laws, etc.) are based on World Census scores?
Most of them are intuitively obvious if you look at them (if not from the name alone, then from the fact that score-based notabilities are typically modified by far more issues than flag-based ones), but I don't have any automated, foolproof way of identifying them.
When I can tell you is that it seems that most notabilities are either score-based ("barren, inhospitable landscape"), or are redundant with named policies ("zero percent divorce rate" = "Permanent Marriage"), so it's more interesting to list the ones that aren't. These appear to include:
avant-garde cinema (ban on sequels)
aversion to nipples (not the same as general-purpose Prudism, but rather a ban on public breastfeeding)
conspicuous electricity pylons (importing electricity from other nations)
daily referendums (self-explanatory)
digital currency (self-explanatory)
flagrant waste-dumping (dumping waste in international waters)
free-roaming dinosaurs (mostly self-explanatory, but actually includes all nations with live dinosaurs, even ones in zoos)
otherworldly petting zoo (specifically means dinosaur zoos, and so always implies the previous notable as well)
infamous sell-swords (mostly for nations that employ mercenaries, but may also include ones that merely allow them to operate)
pith helmet sales (counterintuitively, this is actually specific to nations that practice colonialism... or self-defense in Brasilistan's case)
rampant corporate plagiarism (absence of copyright law)
rum-swilling pirates (piracy is legal... the naval kind, not the copyright kind)
teetotalling pirates (replaces the above in nations where alcohol is banned)
smutty television (currently affected by very few issues, I'd have to run some checks to see if that's a sampling bias or not)
unlimited-speed roads (self-explanatory)
That appears to be 15 out of 61 total notables, or about one-quarter. Knowing about these is useful because they're valid validities for issues!
Of the ones that are score-based, I'd have to say that "exploding hoverboards" deserves particular notice.
I'm probably not going to do this, because from what I can tell, all admirables are score-based.Minoa wrote:EXTRA: I'd like to see you compile a full list of admirables too, to go with the notables.
For example, mine are "cultured" (high Culture), "efficient" (not sure what it means, but clearly something that should be on a sliding scale - maybe Economic Efficiency?), "environmentally stunning" (high Environmental Beauty), "genial" (gotta look that one up in a dictionary... looks like it's Cheerfulness or Compassion?), "safe" (high Safety), and "socially progressive" (high Inclusiveness, probably).
If you want to know which score the less-obvious ones are based on, then that requires statistical analysis of nations rather than issue results, which is more up Valentine Z's alley. Or write your own script.
