Hi, I think the max number of players in netrek are all the letters in the alphabet and all the numbers. So, 26+10, or 36. Your standard game is 8 vs. 8. But in addition to that. You can have up to 4 fighting robots that mix it up, and they take slots too. Also, 1 robot that controls the game. And a bunch of "observers", up to 8 (sometimes more, based on who sets up the server). People in the wait queue when the game is full, also take up a slot. (Although U shouldn't get getting information about these people).
