So you think real points are also virtual points? Then we could say that
one's virtual dimensions are the sum of one's displacement and one's real
values.

But the DimShip rule defines Buoyancy and Ballast to be positive virtual
value and negative virtual value, respectively. I think that's what virtual
values are.

In which case entropy is running wild, and Dan has won once, being the
player with the highest score who has no DimShip, and the Clock turned off.
Three ndays later, the Clock turned back on, and bd, Bean, Dan, Iain, Naath,
and Rachel, being the players who had no DimShips, all of whom then had 0
points, won.

And we've never gotten past nday 1 this nweek, because the Clock keeps
turning off every time it turns on.
