The German news is correct. The list was updated last night but the English translation wasn't.
Carnac has no underpopulated realm and it will be Midgard on Excalibur that gets the underdog bonus.
Thanks for pointing it out. It has been changed on the site already.

The exact formula to work out whether a realm is underpopulated is a secret (even I don't know it). However I do know that it takes a lot of different variables into consideration and not just raw population or RP share.

And before anyone asks it's a secret because we just want people to play the game rather than obsess about which realm is best to re-roll in because one has an underdog bonus while another has relic or keep bonuses.

fair enough but nevertheless i dont think this formula is accurate on determining that mid needs underdog bonus on excal

Then you should rework your formula because it seems not to work :p

doesn't really matter in 1.70 - the underdog bonus is just cheaper upgrade/upkeep costs for keeps.

Hardly game-breaking.

Now if they got a 2 day underdog from the 1.71 bonuses then I'd be very scared.

Still don't see why it's not hib, odd :)

I think they used the same calculator that determined savage damage was ok for release with SI.

True but giving an underpopulation bonus to Alb/Excal would be slightly odd...

formula :

(Number of GM's playing Midgard) x (Number of days patchdelay with US ) x (Number of lagspikes per day on Excal ) x 100 / The average IQ of the GoA staff.
