I hope that this will also fix the wrong effects those ads have on the national top ten topics, i.e. that the topic gets more important not less important.
Can't imagine that no one else is experiencing this? For example, start a campaign with Bill Clinton and look at his "high gas prices" rating in Arkansas (-25) and where the topic stands on the national top ten list. Now create a tv ad "OPPOSING high gas prices" and see what happens. His rating goes up to -8 (instead of down!) and the topic drops down/out of the top ten list nationally (instead of becoming more important because of the tv ad). Either I'm missing the point compl
When I create an ad in any given state the effects are totally contrary to what should happen. E.g. if I create an ad "pro social security" in Florida my ratings on that particular item drop whereas they should get higher. Moreover the topic doesn't move up the table of nationally important topics if it's a TV ad - instead it moves down. I would like to know if other players experience the same "problem" and what stardock has to say about it.
