Yeah, but it's a joke to programmers programming anything that doesn't require physics.

But it's more like 30% science 200% ingenuity and 400% working to get ingenuity and science to work together.

You know what "percent" means, Right ?

Yes, 100% is all of 1 thing. 200% is twice as much as one thing.

To make something that's truly wonderful, it takes more than one person working 100% on creative ideas. (two would do fine honestly...)
and a LOT of people trying to make it work.

EG:

two people working together to try and make the game storyline.

1 on the game engine
1 on the map editor
1 on the server
1 more on the engine

Thats 400% brain power on making them work.
30% science has already been completed...

200% brain power making the storyline.

over 100% simply means x.xx * n

100% would mean 1 person creating masterpieces out of their ass.

600% means 6 people creating masterpieces out of their asses.

Well ; If you take the fact humans don't use 100% of their brain at the same time, Your explanation is pretty much dead.

But this depends of the way you see things ; In stats, 100% is your total, Where a % is a number on the maximum frac. of 100, 101% is inexistant.

If your percent explains a fraction of some random total, It can go above maximum, Becoming units + frac., But again it depends of the context your crap is in.

Common sense still takes a percent means something on damn one hundread, Anything going above becoming an unit, Fuzzy 101+ percentages being used for math.

Anyways I'm tired and don't feel like defining my opinion of what's a goddamn percent today xD. My english skills are dead.

Mmk, well the point of my statement is that programming takes more than is humanly possible.

Well that or that the science and ingenuity didn't work in my post. I wasn't sure which one to go for.

You're absolutely right, I am a fucking robot.

If you've ever worked on some team thing, you'll see that sticking 10,000 people on a project doesn't mean that the project will complete 1,000,000% faster.

In fact, doing such a thing would be detrimental to the project's progress.

Furthermore, you're not factoring in random variables such as sleepiness, a person's skill (in fact, studies have shown that a single (talented) person can be over 10 times as productive as other with the same experience), and the work environment.
