    It's official -- 0.14% every 6 hours, not 14%.

    So I noticed on the quasi-live letter tonight that according to the Japanese-language 2.1 site and what Yoshida was reading, the english site number of 14% price decrease for housing every 6 hours is indeed a typo, and it was intended to be 0.14%.

    Its a bit of a no brainer since its planned to be 50% in 90 days, but a lot of people were wondering what the actual number was, and there it is.

    Isn't .14% the same as 14%. Or is it because people were getting the multiplication wrong.

    awesome, I thought 14% was far too much of a drop per 6 hours.

    If you think we just had a nice conversation, I was probably being sarcastic

    1.00 = 100%

    0.14 = 14%

    0.0014 is how it shouldve been
