Grepolympia question

Hello forum goers/forum admins,

I have a question about the Grepolympia. Last year, I was around as well, and I enjoyed it quite a lot, so, when I saw the banner pop up we'd be having another Grepolympia, I got excited, dusted off the wiki, and read up which units were the best to create (besides Manticores/Erinys), and prepared myself for a good 4 weeks of fun.

However, this morning when it was launched, I was surprised; the wiki was way off from what swordsmen give as experience. They are said to have 30 slots, and give 28 experience per swordsmen during the Hoplite Race (speed 2); however, now it has 20 slots, and gives 20 experience

If there were going to be changes, I would've appreciated either an announcement, or see the wiki being adapted to the new format. So, my question is; Why change something that worked just fine?

I'm not a big fan of chariots, but sure, I'll research them to get those few extra points I can get. But there are also newer , smaller players here, that will be at a severe disadvantage; you're not going to tell me a 2k point player will be able to produce 8 chariots every 2 hours without severely getting behind on his polis progress. and building 20 swordsmen/hour, seems to be a complete waste if you look at the points they give.

So, once more; Why was the Grepolympia changed without any notice? And what's the purpose of it?:\

Regards,

Acupuncture

The values for training points are relative to the game speed (formula: training points/game speed).
The amount of units per training slot is also relative to game speed (formula: units*world speed).

What was the speed of your world last year? What speed is your world this year?

Alpha: speed 2
Xi: speed 2

I've read the wiki, I understand what it says. Divide points given by game speed, multiply ammount of slots by world speed. However, neither of the two seem to fit the current situation: dividing the points swordsmen give by 2, would give 28/swordsmen, not 20. Multiplying the ammount of slots by 2, would give 30 slots, not 20.

I retract my statement all values are way off: it appears to be just the swordsmen that are not the way they were last year during the hoplite race
