Could be 67% out of a much bigger pool many of who leapfrogged from not-qualified to > 322, in principle at least. But I agree now that the OP has allowed that the period in the message may have changed that @JMac probably had the right answer from the start. | |

| Jan 6, 2020 at 20:24 | comment | added | JMac | But to change from 16% to 67% would require 51% of the users to have been affected enough by this change to pass the 322 point threshold as a result of the change. It's possible, but that does seem statistically pretty unlikely to me. | |
