Random question about the mechanics of the spreadsheet.
We dropped 384 points on Royal Canadian Kilted Yaksmen, but due to the 8 bit thing, it displays as 255. Does this spreadsheet count the 384 or the 255?
384? The score was 255-0 CLAVENHOUSE...where is this 384 coming from?
The way the final score is stored is in an binary 8-bit word which means the largest number it can display is 2^8, which is 256, and starting at 0 gives you a maximum value of 255.
The original post already acknowledged the 8-bit thing. I'm asking about the spreadsheet.
I downloaded the spreadsheet, and it's only accounting for 255 points and not the 384 we scored. That's probably a good thing since that ridiculous score will taint the results too much.
I wasn't respondig to your question 4th, I was explaining the 255 max final score/ overflow bug to BB.
