Its kinda useless, you don't get any choice in the last 2 planets its random... ie taking one and making one

so you could get screwed

Actualy that awas just a logical guess.
I wonder if anyone wil 11 planets will get deleted with fourm notices he screwed up ala the overbanking temper tantrum.

if the game allows it , and it isnt made with hacking or something.
following this line , it may be possible to have 12 planets too .
Its indeed a bug
Why?
Because using it, ppl can gain an unfair advantage.
This type of bug called exploit. And all the exploiters should be handled similar as cheaters. According to Jason's posts.

Agreed.
On a side note, remember when planets first came out? How you could get up to 5-6 with one shot of the mothership? Following that logic you could get around 15 planets...assuming you had the best luck in the world. Ofcourse you would also probably get your name in the cheaters section when noticed, lol.

I think this would fall in the same catagory as overbanking.
Fourm didnt specificly mean for it, but its possible, and hed prolly get all pissy if someone did this too, like overbanking.
But I think its just a bug in the code that needs fixin.
FACT: Sendin MS out rarley succeds.
FACT: People send MS Out to protect it from massing.
FACT: If someone sent their MS out to avoid it getting massed while at the
same time used 3 MTs to creat a planet, and the MS returned with one....
that'd be a bug not an exploit, becuase its random.
You must be lucky fori t to work,
