Three separate non-Explorer ship events this turn. Impressive! I thought the Miracht would be out of repair this quarter, but I guess not until next quarter.
 
35 rp, 20pp, and +50 relations with Caitian. Nice earnings! That puts them at 396. Geez, I'm tempted to suggest pushing them in the Snakepit, for the full membership bonus.

Plus, 123 rp? 13 activations! Back in business ;)

Thurir still has to see what the Board of Inquiry has to say before Starfleet Command lets him get back in the saddle assuming he's cleared of all charges.

If that Board doesn't acquit him of any accusations I shall be very cross at them. It's utter bullshit to blame him for Cardie intelligence shenanigans.
 
20 pp... so that means we'll have 151 political will in the Snakepit. And now we've just got to see what the prices on everything are, because I know it shifts around a lot.

We have a betazoid crewmember, Lieutenant Arai, asking for a chance to talk to the AI. She feels she can get through to it. I told her that, obviously, telepathy won't work on an AI but she said that being Betazoid means you understand the mind itself better than anyone, artificial or otherwise. With the minutes ticking down, she's my best bet at the moment!

You know... I think we need to seriously consider one more push on the Betazoids. I'm starting to get the idea that having them better integrated in the Federation would have all sorts of benefits.

Especially since Betazed, being already covered by Starfleet as part of the Sol sector, probably won't up Defense very much when it enters fully.
 
Given the below, what's people's preferences for pushes? I think 1 push for full membership a year should be it, although I can see the argument that Betazed would be an exception, being in the Sol Sector.

Current Federation Affiliates:
Betazoids 465/500
Rigellians 312/500
Caitians 396/500
Risa 213/500
Caldonians 203/500
Gaeni 192/500
Orions 174/500
Indorions 143/500
Apiata 100/500

Currently Known Others Possible Members:
Yrillians 45/100
Dawiar 25/100
Kadeshi 35/100
Sotaw 35/100
Gretarians 25/100
Sydraxians -40/100
 
Don't people get extra relation automatically?

Seems like a waste to push the Betazoids. They'll get there on their own.

Apiata, Betazed, Indorians in that order. Apiata are a major industrial power and being actively courted by the Cardassians. Betazed would make certai facitons in the Federation council very happy and provide an absolute boon to espionage and counter-espionage. Indorians are actively being courted by the Cardassians.

They get a roll, which may be high or low. They'll all get there "on there own" but having a race of powerful telepaths completely on our team when we're in an espionage-filled coldish war has, er, obvious benefits.

What's our default push size?

I would like a construction team for our starships and bases.

Yea, I definitely want one of our pushes in the snakepit to be the Betazoids.

My personal order of importance is:
  1. the Apiata because they're right on the knife-edge of affiliatehood in an area where counterdiplomacy is currently rampant
  2. those multispecies people we just met though they don't seem to be on the list because having another group like us is just the best thing
  3. the Betazed because sweet bonus telepathy stuff
  4. the rest of the Cardie-area civs we have a chance of swaying into affiliatehood soon, to keep them out of the spoonheads' grasp
  5. everyone else
 
I want the Apiata, Indorians, Orions and Caldonians, in that order. Given our luck with pushes on Betazed so far it would probably either be shown unnecessary because we get an event that pushes them over anyway, or somehow end up not being enough.
