I was just checking the MAPOTM list to see where I stood, and noticed a funny little stat. For those of you who use firefox and have Greasemonkey along with the right script (percentages on clan tables), you can see what your win/loss/draw percentages are. To my surprise, I found that I had won 52&, lost 39%, and drawn 10% of my games, equaling 101%. I'm sure there's some mathematical explanation for this but thought I'd share this weird little stat anyway.

I always new I was 1% above the rest of you. 😏

Just kidding. 😞

It's rounding error. If the 10 and 39 (for example) were actually 9.6 and 38.7 (again for example) then both would round up resulting in an extra 1%. If you look around you may find some percentages that are less than 100%.

Ah ha, yeah, I should have known that.

Ah well, still a funny thing to come across when you're looking for something else. 😛

Not exactly jokes, but I found the last couple pages quite humorous 😛.
