The picture says it all:
- Look under the author name.
- Next to 1 rating, in parentheses, it shows 6.00 avg.
However, the rating isn’t above 5 stars on the book’s page at Goodreads.
This anomaly only appears on my Goodreads author dashboard.
Just thought I’d share this quirk.
Certainly not complaining about it. 😉
You’re just that good. 😀
Funny that it’s a math book.
Haha! The wonders of technology… what’s going on?!!
Good question. It’s been that way for a couple of weeks. I thought it would fix itself, but not yet…
Deeply buried, in a 80,000 character section of code lies the line:
if {count [book_rating]} = < 1
then [avg] = 6
else [avg] = {sum[book_rating]/{count[book_rating]}}

I often hid different things in code while testing, sometimes i forgot to take some of them out! lol
I know I hid something well when I can’t even find it. 🙂
I have to be honest – the example following code I hid after 8 weeks of testing/end-user testing read as follows (been awhile since I wrote code, so this is not exactly correct! I’m sure there is a colon, comma or exclamation point out of order, among many other errors – )
!>error, 1, Message=[message_type=1]
dim Message, “Did you Frickin’ even read the directions? GAWD! I’m so tired of doing training for you all – Do You Even Frickin’ Care?”
The Frickings were put in so I could easily search/delete my moments of frustration – – – LOL
I once embedded a ‘warning’ message that read, “Do you realize your salary is paid by tax dollars and you are too stupid to enter the correct form #?!? Taxpayers are funding your coffee breaks, gossip sessions and sub-par work ethic – Wait! You probably cheat on your taxes and don’t even care, eh?”
ROFL – it’s quite easy to keep yourself entertained – as long as you remember to take out all the BS code you wrote in frustration…..
I no longer do that kind of work – Quit before I got caught and fired…..LOL
🙂
That’s hilarious. I used to write a lot of programs, but never got so creative with them. 🙂
“Frustration is the Mother of Creativity” –
At least in my Rule Book – LOL – thought you, with your life experience, would get a kick out of my ‘Dark Programmer” side – 🙂
This made me smile.Thanks for sharing it and best wishes with your book sales.
Thank you. You can never have too many smiles. 🙂
