Should I not be 2 credits and 2 marines?

Yonah:

I was wondering the same thing. He had 1 credit last cycle, so unless he made some REALLY stupid moves he should have 2 credits and 2 marines.

Oh, read the GNDT wrong - fixing.

So what shoudl we trust now, the GNDT or this post?
Also how much is the MPI?

“In the event that the Gamestate and the GNDT are different, any Player may correct the GNDT to comply with the Gamestate”, although think we were all expecting that the Net would do this.

I count 237 (Credits + Marines + Power).
If you count the Galatea, you get 14 players, which makes the MPI 17.

Rule 2.7 Inflation reads “Pl is the number of unidle Players”.
It’s debatable whether the Galatea is unidle, since it is not a player for the purpose of core rules.
However including the Galatea’s resources but not ignoring it in the number of players makes absolutely no sense, so we should fix that.

I agree with your calculations - I argue that the Galatea should be counted as a player for this calculation. I am updating the GNDT accordingly.

Note that the phrasing of the ruleset is “Some players are Idle” not “Some players are Unidle”. “Unidle” is defined, by lack of any other definition to be “Players who are not Idle”. Galatea cannot be Idle because he is not a Player for the purposes of the rule about Idling, and thus is not Idle, thus he is Unidle.
