100%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%



and


K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top.

Let the debate ensue :D

Nice! Love it!

And for clan game
S-T-R-A-T-E-G-I-Z-I-N-G
19+20+18+1+20+5+7+9+26+9+14+7=155%
is obviously a good thing ;)

(Had to use a z, sorry!)

R-O-F-L-M-A-O
18+15+6+12+13+1+15 = 80%.
Which I'd love to say is how much we've done. In reality it's closer to 30%. :( *starts prodding various THN comedy members*

Yes i know! Masturbating is only a word, so i doubt he will have a problem with it!

Well, the least we can do is provide proper spelling corrections. ;)

Yea, thankyou! sorry i need correcting so often :eek:

Unfortunately, that scale starts at 0, where as the one posted here starts at 1 :D

The best you can achieve is pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism which equals 370%

Unfortunately, pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism is an inherited disorder that closely simulates the symptoms but not the consequences of pseudohypoparathyroidism, thus it has mild or no manifestations of hypoparathyroidism or tetanic convulsions. So, to achieve maximum points, you have to resort to illness.

Your system is wrong, the internet says so :p

Ain't my system, and that other scale starts at 0 as their code does a simple int cast of the char minus the smallest char ('a'). Eg:
Code:
char a = 'a', input = whateverTheyPutIn;
int x = input - a;

so that if the input is "a", the output (x) will be 0!

Tired. Rambling stops now, I promise

Edit - I lied, rambling a bit more. Meant to say that if we take this way (a=0), then some words are artificial lower then they should be. I mean, people start counting from 1, computers start counting from 0!

In these matters, the wisdom of David Brent is unsurpassed, although it amounts to the same. :)

  • Eagles may soar high, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
  • Remember that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.
  • Never do today that which will become someone elses responsibility tomorrow.
  • What does a squirrel do in the summer? It buries nuts. Why? Cos then in winter time he's got something to eat and he won't die. So, collecting nuts in the summer is worthwhile work. Every task you do at work think, would a squirrel do that? Think squirrels. Think nuts.
  • When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
  • Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.
  • If you treat the people around you with love and respect, they will never guess that you're trying to get them sacked.
  • If at first you don't succeed, remove all evidence you ever tried.
  • You have to be 100% behind someone, before you can stab them in the back.
  • Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.
  • Make good use of your cylindrical filing unit, the one you mainly keep under your desk.
  • Quitters never win, winners never quit. But those who never win and never quit are idiots.
  • Remember the 3 golden rules:
    1. It was like that when I got here.
    2. I didn't do it.
    3. (To your Boss) I like your style.

Still, counting letters is much easier than figuring out the letter to number conversion. Makes solutioneering even more worthwhile than previously assessed. ;)
