That's a small percent, so I guess overall it means that you don't mind finding what you can get?

I guess the whole numbers (50, 12.5, 1, and 125) made me wonder what you were calculating.
*knuckle cracks*
Been thinking about how to reply aaaallll day.

Actually, I was trying to do it all in my head. When I got down to dividing by eight (or multiplying by 0.125!), I completely forgot about the remaining 4 (12-8=4...) which would result in at LEAST a 1.5, and then just sorta guessed how the .5 would work out because I was in a rush. Then I opened up Calc in Windows and got the correct answer.

However, the whole thing really is open to debate, I suppose. You can discard the half, because the half that DOES look at a quarter of your work will be influenced should they try to work on the concepts, where as the other half will not. So the half affects the volume of works, not the inspiration. They're looking at a quarter of your works, so for neatness sake let's just say they're looking at a quarter of your related works and set the unrelated ones aside, shall we? Saves me having to count them and work with ranges.

So, after going by a quarter of your work, they're trying to expand on an eighth of the content there-of. So I'd say 1% Matsu-sensei by content, because artwork is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration.

But apparently they don't have the version of the clip I'd prefer for that joke. ...god, that felt like a badly executed bel-air roll wanna-be...
