Sign your posts!  Anyway, it was made quite clear that The Doctor has no idea how many regenerations he was given by the Time Lords.  What was the line?  Something about maybe living forever, who knows?  Something like that.  Anyway, I think it's kind of pointless to speculate on remaining regenerative energy at this point.  Maybe We'll find out more once The Doctor returns to Gallifrey.

I'm of the opinion that the Time Lords granted him a normal regeneration cycle, which allows for twelve regenerations. He's already regenerated once so he has eleven left over. 12 + 11 = 23.

It depends on wich veiwe of the 13th regeneration you believe if you follow the theroy that one view is that time lords have a limited amount of reg energy then it can be sead that a new cycle was given and there's 11 or less regenerations left the other view is that the 13th regeneration if faulty and dose not result in a new incarnation then it can be argued that there is now an infinite number there's evidence for both [[Special:Contributions/2.28.220.166|2.28.220.166]]<sup>[[User talk:2.28.220.166#top|talk to me]]</sup> 11:49, April 24, 2016 (UTC)
At this point it is left ambiguous. It's been confirmed that Rassilon doesn't know how many were given to him. So if he doesn't know, it certain the other time lords don't know as well.

In the episode two of season nine, The Twelfth Doctor has regeneration energy stolen from him. The question is, how Much does he still have? Does this change the number of Regenerations he has left?
