Total Armies + (Armies Due x Missed Turns) + (Probability of Holding Card Set x Card Set Value) - (2/3 x Territories Held)

I see the formula in help, but I don't quite understand why there's a penalty for holding more territs.

I would guess that it means that the player is too spread out. Why is it 2/3? Is there something special about that number?

Should strength be considered more attack strengh or defensive strength?

The coding cage monkeys goes insane after a longer period of coding.

I suspect Yeti_C, the creator of BOB, got really insane during his BOB coding. So he made something that no one understands and never will understand.

Insanity among cage monkies has come to be one of the major problems in todays society.

True story.
