My statements were based on the help for CP SET SHARE.. my comments on math were somewhat tongue in cheek - but since this is a relative value - 100 is as good as any other to base things on.. set all your guests to 7 and use increment of 3 if you like. No idea at all by what you mean by 'political' .. and annoyed at the statement that the defaults are just flat out wrong.
