I think you mean case.in2 instead of case.inst.

Yes, if you add 8.5 [4.5 up + 4 dn] d core electrons to case.incup and 
case.incdn to get NiO.incup_+.50 and NiO.incdn_+.50.  You need to remove 
8.5 d valence electrons by reducing the total number of electrons from 
176 to 167.5 [= 176 - 8.5] in case.in2 to get NiO.in2_+.50.

Similarly for 4.5 up + 4 dn in NiO.incup/incdn_+.5-1 and 168.5 in 
NiO.in2_+.5-1 as described in [1] when doing the NiO calculation [2,3].
