Regarding the 32 polygons that were created when you tried to make a
single polygon to seal off your sphere, it sounds as though you may have
mistakenly selected the points the points on the bottom of your sphere as
well as those at the top when you went to make your polygon.  This would
be easy to do if you were using the top view to select your points, since
the points of the "hoop" at the opposite end of your sphere would be
hidden by the points of the top hoop, and would automatically be selected
along with the points that you really wanted to select.  This would also
explain the 32 polygons that you mention.
   Next time you select points to make a polygon, look at the little
"points selected" counter and confirm that the amount of selected points
is not more than you intended to select.
   Is that clear?  Sure, as clear as mud.
