I think it's just one more person showing interest than the quota is fulfilled.

However even if not one person expresses interest by April 1st, I probably will go forward in making the RP since a 7/8 is still a high B anyhow.

I will spend efforts today [since it's 2 AM where I am] refining the shorter TL and outlining plot events along with detailing aspects of the [REDACTED].

I also pretty much should say that the GC's distribution of wealth is not as lopsided as it may seem- Sol is not really wealthier than the inner colonies and the outer colonies are only behind since they're still developing. The global aristocracy has no equivalent in current GC society, as capitalism as we know it tends to be practice at a local level on some worlds only. There is multiple powerful organizations, but they aren't corporate in nature. They'd be more like guilds than corporations.
