So I'm not quite sure if this should go here (as there is a possible bug) or somewhere else, like the tips section. Anyway, I was having the hardest time getting rr3 when I came up with a new (well, new to me) strategy.
I started out as a Zealot for Rychart and my plan was to persistently blockade Xeen Prime, looting weapons, electronics, records, and occasionally artifacts from any non-Rychart ship who happened to come my way. I was a legendary crimelord with Steel Song in no time and steadily climbing rank with Rychart.
Something I noticed on my way to rank 9 is that, in fact if you do not have enough money for a promotion, it will not show the price of your next promotion or your bankroll.
Also, and I don't know if this is a bug or just mercy, but I was just a few weeks from 61.34, or whatever the rr3 deadline is, and just attained rank 8 so I knew there was no way I was gonna get the award but I was having too much fun and wanted rank 9 just because I had to finish what I started. Well by the time I sold my latest pillage and got my rank to 9, it was 64.XX (about three years too late) but I clicked to record my achievement anyway and to my surprise (and delight), it took it.
So like I said, it may be a bug, but my tip to everyone is to never give up. If you're close to your goal, just finish it out. It might work out for you (until Corey "fixes" it, that is).

This is as intended -- I guess it could show it in addition to the message that is being generated today. Logged the first one as ST-384 and the one above as ST-385 |

ST-384
--------
"Rapid Rank XXII" Requires Rank >= 9 and Turn <= 400
Updating game text to say:
"reaching Rank 9 in less than 7 years and 36 weeks (before 64.37AE.)"
No change to rules or Award -- issue was with text.
ST-384 is fixed in next release.

How about changing the award that says "unlock special smuggler offcer ability" to "unlock special scout officer ability" as currently there is no smuggler officer?
