The attendance meter shouldn't go back up to 100%

by **Lord and Master** on Sat Jan 06, 2018 2:09 pm

It does, my friend had 99% and one day it was back to 100% which annoyed me then, as it still does now.
Even 1 missed turn ever should place a 99% record limit for ever, surely?

could you please tell me why I should care?

If mathematical integrity means nothing to you then no i can't.

There’s a mathematical concept called rounding. So if you have 99.4% you’ll be shown as 99%. If you get it back to 99.5+% you’ll go back up.

Mathematical integrity still intact.

99.0 to 99.4% of turns taken rounds down to 99%

99.5 to 99.9% of turns taken rounds up to 100%

Someone who claims to care about mathematical integrity should understand this.

Whilst the lessons on rounding are well received my issue is merely that no rounding should occur above 99% as having 100% attendance while still having missed turns is just wrong, abhorrently so.

Well, i have 10 015 games played and 5 695 wins as of right now, yet it says 57% win rate. How is that any different?
Do you see a decimal coma on these %? No, right? Then stop being such a nit picking asshole about your "friend".

There's only one significant digit in 100. If we really wanted to get technical, everyone over 50 has 100.

----------It is not like we are given perfect attendance awards....Wait :!:

...should we be getting perfect attendance medals/awards or conquer credits? 8-)

......Like once a year...Then everyone's attendance will go back to 100%...You know like school or in places of work,where people are rewarded for not missing time.......But of course there will be those who are the skipping kind or the I don't feel like going in kind...they can get special medals of their own...

How is your example not different? Win rate being rounded isn't particularly misleading, having 100% attendance yet having missed turns is blatantly misleading.
The whole thing of 100% is it equates to perfect, you see someone with 100% record and think they've never missed a turn yet clearly we now know this isn't always the case. Which is bollocks, nit-picking arsehole or not it's bollocks!

How much worse is a decimal coma compared to a regular one?

Well a coma with a decimal if you prefer... not a millionial. But it could work too.

In that case, you should complain about all these guys with a 5.0 rating only because it got rounded up after susan from accountings rated them all 4/4/4 just to piss those 5.0 off.

lol @ this entire thread.

I think I'm heading for a decimal coma.

I suspect their friend is big enough not to care about the .4%

by **grifftron** on Mon Jan 08, 2018 3:27 am

I've missed a few turns... round me down to 99% CC.. round me down.

ps. I am the friend hes talking about... we go way back.

by **Lord and Master** on Mon Jan 08, 2018 3:46 pm

It should round you down! That would be more accurate.

I suppose what it boils down to is that, like a lot of you, the case of 100% needs to be treated as if it were special.

by **2dimes** on Mon Jan 08, 2018 7:33 pm

Huh, it rounded up on me too. I never noticed because unless it's showing something much lower than 97% it just means you missed a turn for some reason.

It's not like you are someone that may not show up half the time.

36% of turns taken. That makes me wonder, who has the worst attendance?
