That was my 'fix' for an oddity I mentioned in another post today: if you have skill 16W, and roll an 18, then instead of bumping up 'failure, 18' to 'success, 18', it becomes success, 2' (i.e., the amount you 'missed' by).

The results are presented per 1AP staked. So "AP change for A, per 1AP stake: 0.450" means that if the stake was 10, the average net gain is 4.5 to 'Contestant A'. (From gains and transfers. Incidentally, it uses 'both gain 1x' for crit/crit results. Should this vary from what the rules say, clearly it must be the book that is in error. <g>)
