Metaverse Score: what's included in the report?

from Stardock Forums
OK, I figured out how to make new polical parties. As an aside, modifying my planet quality percentage to 1000% was amusing. Hehe... planet qualities of 168 LOL (NO LIE!!!!) was QUITE funny. Of course, this means that I would have been able to colonize ANY planet I wanted of quality 2 or better!

SOO does the metaverse score INCLUDE the political party in it's report so that you can look at those things? Also, as I have figured out almost all of the different abilities a political party can change, is this something you want public? I am thinking of people cheating by creating a party that gives em all abilities of 100% or greater and then submitting a score. :(

If you submit a game with illegitimately modified files, your score gets cut to zero and the game flagged as "Cheated". Can us the players see what you did? No. But the devs can, I suspect.

hehe, define illegitimately modified. :) I'd HOPE something like this would be considered... NOTE: you CAN create a new political party. IE NOT modify an existing one. It's just like any other mod. Until I get word from the devs here on it, I'm not going to describe how to do it. I DO have to admit though, seeing a planet class of over 100 was REALLY REALLY funny!

Ok, well, if you look at my score, you'll see I submitted one game. I just finished my second game. This time, I was using my cheat political party! I HOPE that the devs are able to detect that it had a new political party and therefore, this mod isn't sanctioned and QED, this is a cheat score. (Yes, I have NO problems at all with it being zeroed out. I WANT that to happen!)
