In the latest B spec seasonals at Fuji (2/2/12), the prize money is 200k for first place, my login bonus is at 130% so I should recieve 260k. But I receive only 259,999. Where is my dollar? What strange magic maths have we here?
 
It went to Virtual Tsunami Relief. You have just virtually fed a virtual child that had their life virtually wiped out and washed virtually away. So 👍 to you for that virtual donation. Now you can claim it on virtual tax. :)

:lol:
 
Those currency exchange rates must round off in their favor! :)

But seriously, did you maybe hit the 20 million cap and not get the last dollar?

nope, currently sitting at about 12 million. This is a serious question too... how can a computer take 200,000 multiply it by 1.3 and come up with a figure like that?

Agree!!!! Report this problem immediately
 
:pyou cheapskate, only paying your poor b spec driver a dollar to race for you
 
260k electrons left the bank, but one got lost on its way to your wallet.
A bit like the explanation for the goal at the buzzer last night?
 
You actually get dollars for playing GT5 :crazy:

I just get credits in the game no real currency.
Wait, let me check my bank account.......


...... no, nothing. :(

We Canadians understand your reference 👍
 
Well thank you very much! Today I've learned something. (I still want my dollar though :) )

Start GT5 every day for 5 days, you'll reach 200% and you'll get 400,000 credits for your race. Not 399,3999 ;-)

Now that I've told you how to get 140,001 extra dollars, stop crying for that missing dollar ;)

Yeah, floating point arithmetic rounding errors are causing problems everywhere nowadays, but this is not an accounting software... and 259,999 credits is better an the 200,000 you would have had if they didn't implement the 130%.
