So same result I.e. you only care about the % for 1 side of the result, regardless of whether it's predicted as a winner or loser You have to do 100-55 to get 45 though. That's what Ngamer was saying. Yeah I get that, for some reason I thought the spreadsheet listed matches as 55/45 rather than winner and percentage If only. I was looking through the archives on the site, and in the fourway era, where you had to put in a percentage for all four contestants and your score was the average of how far off you were on each one, there were literally #1 daily picks that didn't add up to 100%. There was one where the person's picks added up to 98%, and it got them a score of 49.50 because all four percentages were under the actual percentages. It's truly cringeworthy. --- FC 5026-4424-6331 -- Native Vivillon type: Polar Still need Marine, Sun, Icy Snow, Monsoon, River, and Jungle <cite>TsunamiXXVIII posted [p:879086317] in SpC2k17 Or...
