No...... not sixth grade math! And here I thought level draining was the worst!!! They should just have used fractions, looks like that's much earlier, at least in our state standards. Does that make it akin to tracking rations in terms of awfulness?

Maybe the creating supernatural agent once got in an argument about whether raises should be given as flat amounts or as percent of current income, was bitter over losing the argument, and decided to go with something like percentages on everything else? (Is it the Finns who do that for...
