That happens with me too. Do they have a medical term to describe this disorder? I'm afraid it's not OCD.

Obsessive–compulsive personality disorder[^] sounds like it - or "being an anal-retentive" - which is what led me there.

Brilliant, now I'm annoyed by the fact that you have an "impossible" score, and I don't have the comfort of having asparagusness  .
Why is even "better" than odd, just out of interest?

Because Mr Asperger says so.

Being is that you are an accountant, does it bother you if you have to write out a dollar amount for $35.17 or do you just round up?
...yes, I know you don't go by dollars but by British pounds. 
Just along for the ride.

When I go to a restaurant, I always vary my tip amount so that I have an even total value.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

|

if the bill is over 30 bucks and the service was descent or better, then I leave 2 dollars for every 10 dollars...rounding up on the bill.
edit - anything under I leave 15% of bill total. Weird way of doing it, I know.

Well you certainly can get an odd amount of points:

Edit Question/Answer A member receives points for editing a question (under Quick Answers). 2 50 ∞ 500
Edit Technical Blog A member receives points for editing a Technical Blog Article - changing at least 10% of the content. 2 25 ∞ 500

Edit video article A member receives points for editing a video article ^__b style="color:red;">5 25 ∞ 500
And just in case you were wondering where this titbit of information came from looky here[^]. 
That is only if you consider 5 and odd number, I personally find 5 a number that quite alright.

He didn't mention anything about odd numbers, just round ones. So I suspect 3 is better than 4, but 0 would be perfect. In other words he wants his score to be reset to 0 (or maybe 00, for double pleasure  )

Thanks for that Manfred, that solve my angst about having a mathematically impossible number of editor points.

I rushed into the office and have everyone on high alert with regards to this issue.
Can you please confirm that the issue is resolved and I can stand down the SWAT Hamster team? They're getting edgy.

I do not edit articles.
I do not consider myself knowledgeable enough to take on that responsibility.
I presumed it was an old error from when the points changes occurred a couple of years ago.

Then buy one, it is not difficult.
Just enter your details and hey presto, one is delivered about 28 days later.
You will get your certificate, what more do you want.

Well ever since Chris removed the "Inane post accumulation" category from his MVP catagories, DD's had a tough time.

By preference, I want Sean to leave the Mankini at home this year. *shudder*

Mankini's are soooo last year. This year Sean is going with nipple tassles and a furry cod piece.

I am sooooo glad he will visit you first - I'll have plenty of time to close the Welsh border to visitors...
I need Mind Bleach after that image!
