If we assume that the system the system works and no one has gotten into the Good Place in more than 500 years, then that means Mindy Saint Claire, the only person to ever get into the Medium Place, is the best person to live during that time. And it would be because she made a foundation, which is a pretty bougie definition of good that we've seen doesn't count for much in the points system. So either the Bad Place demons poached everyone and they decided to let Mindy Saint Claire go, they missed her somehow, or the Good Place has a truely weird and specific criteria that she lucked into.

Is this the first time we learn that you need a large number of points to get into the Good Place? I just assumed it had to be positive, with better rewards the higher you got, and Mindy Saint Claire being the only person ever to get exactly zero.

So far, whenever we get a look at a specific example of an action earning points, the description is always short, and to-the-point, but apparently we also need a mountain of context too that is never seen in that person's "file." We know that motivation matters, but we've still never seen someone's file mention it. When someone donates to a soup kitchen, we only see "Donated $X to a soup kitchen," not whether they did it out of compassion, to get into heaven, to avoid hell, for self-aggrandizement, or to get laid. And now we know that the effects matter to, except we've never seen "Donated to soup kitchen, only for most of it to go to the manager's salary," or another person getting more Good Place Points because the week they donated, their money went towards a more hungry person. So why does Mindy St Claire count as the best human in centuries, but not another famous activist? Why does her posthumous legacy count for more that than person?
