Concerning the 155%....

Also predictions under 0% and over 100% should probably be capped at those levels anyway. Looks like he's getting lots of negative points here.
That's something that could be done....it's clearly something that never occurred to me as a possibility before though >_>
The spirit of the scoring system leads me to believe that penalty for a single char should be capped at 100% or something but I'm not fixing that today since it has no incidence on the "top" standings and it's rather complicated....

And for those calling for leniency, the mother of all mental slips would like to have a word with you:

As far as I'm concerned the typo is there to stay, we've had enough precedents and it's crazy for the hosts to start assuming stuff when people predict....DSRage deserves better than that...
