Misc category suggestions

I was thinking a good misc category to add would be "1 Promotion" (lighting up an additional yellow light at the center of the table), and maybe that could even replace the 1000000 points category.

Tbh, I think score thresholds like that are maybe too arbitrary of categories, as they don't necessarily indicate any degree of progression made in the game. A similarly arbitrary category would be something like "Activate Gravity Well".

That's really all I have, let me know what you all think!

Yeah its a good idea, i really only added the 1000000 points because i didnt know what to add. Ill add one promotion (3 missions) and from what i understand gravity well is pretty much as close to completing the fame as possible so ill add that as a category.

Oh no XD the point I was making with an "Activating Gravity Well" category is that just like a "1000000 points" category, it's just some random task that has no bearing on the extent to which you've completed the game. Though the gravity well is the red light in the center of all the mission lights, it actually has nothing to do with missions, and is therefore simply just a side-mission. This being said, the main category is best reverted back to what it was originally (all missions).

Although, I do have two additional comments concerning the language of the rules. The 3 missions category you put up, I think, is best to be called "1 Promotion" because it is actually possible to get a promotion if you clear the "Science Mission" twice (because it lights up 9 of the 18 blue lights in the center when completed).

Additionally, I want to talk about the "All Missions" category, too. It's actually better if we rename it to "Fleet Admiral" or something, as that is the highest rank in the game (and the rules would define it as lighting up all 9 yellow lights in the center). You don't need to beat all the missions available in the game to achieve this rank. This is probably the best direction to go for a main category because even the official synopsis says, "Do you have what it takes to become a Fleet Admiral and save the Galaxy?"
