Patent of Nobility Card (where are you?)

It's what I do. :D

Glad to have helped you out there. Hell, the only reason I know is came up in the Private Forum not long before it closed. Still, I seem to recall you being a Beta with access so you can go and scan for the thread in which it comes up. Can't point you to it, just its existence. More of an ACS dude as recall.

I believe you, Magnus. I enjoyed your input during the Beta. I'll scan for it if I get a chance. Thanks again!

Here's my question. What the heck does the O: mean after the Ni code. I know Ni means Non-industrial, but I have never seen the O: thing. Mebbe it's a typo?

As already answered this means 'owned'. But I think this might also be a typo ... I've never seen O: used except in the form O:nnnn where nnnn is the hex of the owning system. Without the nnnn part this is redundant as you can already see the gov code says the same thing.

Yeah, I kinda thought it redundant after what Magnus told me. If the government code is Captive, why duplicate with an "Owned" code.

Owned and Captive are not duplicates. A captive world indicates it taken perhaps by conquest. Owned could reference a corporation or private entity not necessarily a planet.

No. The definition of 'captive world' is one that has its government appointed by someone from outside. 'Captive' has other meanings besides 'captured'.

Comments like 'O:Imp' and 'O:Tuk', etc. would make perfect sense (we just haven't seen any examples like that), but 'O' alone would be redundant.

yes agreed. Captive have several meaning but not necessarily redundant to Owned. Marc has simply not specified the details of the owner. Corporations are the best example I can think of quickly but there are probably others.
 
Where O: appears by itself with no nnnn, it means we haven't decided on who the owner is yet.

Hurray, that means you got your new toys!
 
Yep! I was so excited I did an impromptu dance, much to the postman's amusement. :) New book smell, new dice, mmmmmm! Dear to this gamer gal's heart.
