Mandatory retirement time?

[mark13]

Late correction =

Citizen, Specialist, Talent - 2600
Librarian, Thinker, Transcend - 2500

This is displayed in the alpha.txt file, and is customisable.

According to the manual, the mandatory retirement year is M.Y. 2500 for Citizen, Specialist, and Talent, and M.Y. 2400 for Librarian, Thinker, and Transcend. But I 've noticed people talking about trancend games in the 2400's. Was there a late correction I missed? I read through the readme text and didn't see it in there.

All this time I've been racing for transcendance by 2400 and didn't need to. Actually, I can't imagine a game going on that long...by the time I reach transcendance, I'm usually so bored by the micromanagement that I can't wait for the game to get over and start a new one.

It is fun to keep playing, even though no score is kept. Sometimes it's fun to use all that tech that you did all that micromanagement for.
