The more I think about that, the more incoherent I think it is. Anybody, feel free to modify/correct what I just wrote.

Nice going, did you plan your 1337 post for your lvl up post? If not you should play the lottery this week.

I've noticed my VP is climbing quite quickly compared to how it has in the past, is there any specific reason for this? It's going up 0.01 every second day or so! I thought it might have been because of my recent rank up, but I am unsure. Any ideas?

It's the rank-up. That extra 2% put you over the edge on a rounding sequence.

You've got the basic idea down, but I'll take a crack at it. The extra 2% from the rank-up is going to have a play in it as it increases your daily increase slightly.

Presuming your old daily base was .004/day with the 26% making it .00504 while the 28% bonus makes it .00512. That extra .00008/day is forcing a roundup on the 2nd day rather than a round down on the 3rd slightly more frequently than previously.

Your XP also runs in round up/down cycles as it calculates your XP/HT XP percentage and then works out a base VP from that. You may be hitting a period where the percentage roundup is forcing the base to round up, followed by the bonus forcing the round up, etc. Think of it like a biorhythm. Right now they are out of synch so when one's low, the other is making up for it and nudging it over a rounding point, giving you more frequent 2day +.01s. At some point they will synch up and you'll hit a period where they both force a round up (which won't do anything extra) followed by neither forcing one making your 2days a lot less frequent.

Bah, I only made about 70 - 80 points tonight. I'll know my exact total tomorrow along with Bila's. I hope he didn't have another 100+ point night, I need to make up some lost ground.

I figured it was something like that. I just couldn't put it into words in my head and therefore see it all laid out before me, in ways I could understand. Thanks Pop and D0G.

Argh, so it's you who overtook me yesterday... I'll hit that rank today as well. Will try and grab a screenie, there's a good chance that I'll hit it at 5600-2400, for a perfect 7:3 blam ratio.

Fuck. Knew I shouldn't have voted 5 on that marginal flash that *just* made it through at about 1.63... bollocks. Could easily have blammed it, but I'm a nice guy. Spoiled the piccy, but my voting power is in the eights now. Making me the 73rd Praporshchik.

Well, just save the page, edit the HTML slightly, and take the pic of the page offline, nobody'll ever know.

No biggie, just edit the code or the graphics, whichever is easier. It's not like you aren't going to be able to find ONE more blam to get to the point your pic shows you at.

This is going to get interesting ...
