Humm .. the "received 0 NP's" bug was new. At the time it was
first reported, I expressed the opinion that this was probably
a bug introduced as a side effect of attempts to fix other NP
bug(s). What Greg reports above fits into that theory if we
postulate a fix to the fix. I will therefore boldly postulate
(hey, its free) that Rich has fixed (or at least attempted to fix)
the reported NP bugs.

(Of course, even if this is true, it will not prevent people from
complaining about not getting compensated for NP's already lost.)

While I certainly won't throw out all the existing NP reports,
I'd like to hear from people regarding actions involving NP's
begining with the *current* turn (e.g. did you get charged and/or
recieve the correct number of NP's for things like Form, LastRites,
Eating, dissolved nobles, partially learned NP skills, bribes,
control artifacts, SFW, and anything else involving NP's that I've
forgotten).
