Looks like someone needs a little re-education.

Well as your supposedly an educator please educate me.

It’s about rounding.

When you calculate a percentage by dividing by the number of votes you’ll often end up with a decimal number with many many decimal places.

When you then multiply that number by the number of votes for an option, you end up with another number with lots of decimal places.

If you then need to show that number without decimals then you have two options.

  1. round the number down to the nearest whole number
  2. round the number up to the nearest whole number

If you do either of those and then total all of the percentages you will end up with a number that is either higher or lower than 100%.

So my guess here (and it’s only a guess) is that the programmer has said…

If I total the list of percentages and it comes to less than 100.0 then I will select the first of the options I had to round down and round it up.

Either way it will be to do with rounding.

13 hours until poll closes. Has everyone voted? Dont forget 13 hours will be pickling time!

Or as us programmers used to say round the sums don’t sum the rounds…

Union Berlin for me. No reason other than i went to Berlin during last season (when they got promoted) and they were on the TV when i was in a bar and got talking to a fan who was a decent bloke, so i thought i’d adopt them as my team. Go Union!

Others around Europe are Le Havre (twin town obvs), Valladolid (won La Liga with them on FIFA 98 or something), Genoa (shagged a great bird from there many years ago and she was a fan and they are also a cricket club).

I can’t see your vote. postal votes don’t count in this poll…

There is some irony in getting someone in Poland to organise a contentious vote over this past weekend.

I had voted before i wrote the post, so fuck off (please). :grinning:

I note when redoing the Poll, my post containing the original beer damaged poll was removed.
Yay! I can make up the rules again-!
(As we currently have a Top 5 not a Top 4 we will vote accordingly in round 2)
Yeah that’s borisckear. Perfect

Just what we need.

An Alternative Vote with transferrable sub-votes.

By the time you get the results the Prem will be back.
