Haha yes, it looked like he was trying to greet our level 30 user!

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?

Well the higher thepercent bonus the faster you would gain overall VP due to its tie in with baseVP.
Let's say every deposit it worth about .0025 (I'd say my baseVP goes up about .01 every 4 or so days). Now lets say your baseVP is 6.00. With every deposit adding .0025 to it, you would be gaining .01 every 4 days (I know i'm starting to repeat myself a bit). Without any percentage bonus, you're overallVP would be gaining .01 every 4 days aswell. Now let's say your percent bonus is 100% (just to make my point seem more clear). Every deposit would be worth .005, making your base and overallVP gain .01 every 2 days.

Well that's my quickly thought up take on the matter, I could be wrong.

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.

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.
