(38+14)/2 + 17 + 1 = 44
The 7 points for third place go to whichever power was eliminated last, for a total of 8 to that player.

They do? Oh, the way people in my town play it, eliminated players only get one point for participation since the idea is that the 7 points can only be shared among the survivors. Guess it's a local deviation then!
What's your take on Sum-of-Squares?

It's possible I've misunderstood the C-Diplo rules, but nearly all rank-based systems I've encountered rank first by SC count, then second by year of elimination for those with an SC count of zero. It's intended to make the elimination of small opponents less strategically attractive than it is with draw-based systems.
Sum-of-Squares is a reasonably good option for handling points in classic Diplomacy. It becomes a de facto hybrid of rank-based and draw-based systems. It becomes troublesome to use it to compare performance on vastly different variant maps, however.
