TWIRP Index Values (2008/05/12) TWIRP Weekly Winners and Losers (2008/05/12)

In this subsection I describe the results of the highest-level TWIRP composite indexes, which show the overall impact of the week’s changes on the economy. For more details on these indexes, please see TWIRP Composite Indexes. This section formerly contained player profile indexes as well, but these turned out to be nearly identical to the composite indexes, so I have suspended reporting them in order to cut down on report length; you can read more about them here. If you are not familiar with TWIRP as a whole, please refer to the TWIRP Quick Guide before proceeding.

Composite Indexes

Global Composite Yield (TWIRP): 93.6 unch
Global Composite Affordability (TWIRPa): 91.9 -0.5% q
Global Composite Income (TWIRPi): 101.8 +0.5% p

Skill Composite Yield (TWIRP-S): 96.1 -1.1% q
Combat Composite Yield (TWIRP-C): 89.9 +1.0% p

As mentioned in the overview, while the overall index was flat, its components definitely moved. Skilling went down, which was offset by combat; alternately, we can see that income increased while affordability decreased.
