In Response To: Size of the errors (Florin Popa)

'If you miss doubles a few times you can be charged more than 1.00 in one game but here you can really (5+ checkers) throw away 1p and get charged less than 0.02, a huge contrariety in my opinion.'

XG calculates the average error rate rather than the effective error rate. Would'nt calculating the effective error rate be more illuminating?
