I am going to get this addon and rate everyone I pug with as low as effing possible. I love being an outlier in statistics, I learned it from Calvin when he filled out a survey for Chewing magazine where he stated he was a 40 year old who spends $300 a week on gum and his favorite flavor of is garlic/curry. Messing with data is fun. Downvote me for this please.

Being an outlier in statistics doesn't make you a rebel, it makes you an anomaly. Good scientific data will streamline the data collection process for averages and patterns.

In all liklihood, your data will be called an error and left unused or possibly thrown out.
