Welcome back to another Monday Core Update! We’re hoping it’s sunny wherever you are, but if not, this classic number from The Beatles, Here Comes the Sun, will hopefully bring out the shine.

It looks quite interesting and we can’t wait to watch it when it comes out. As a small tribute, here’s this week’s quiz question: In what year did Elvis Presley die?

Thanks for Core Update 136 @Winniew95.
Thanks for Thread of the Week nomination.
I am very surprised because I created this thread a few months ago. I am currently using Bluetooth 5.2 on my Liberty 3 Pro paired with a Samsung TV.
Everything works great and I am very happy about it.

The only sad thing is that for many months I have not received tickets and notes that I won during this time. I wrote about this issue to @sean.L many times but nothing has changed for the better. :thinking: I think the only solution is to create a new account …

I send greetings to all members of the Soundcore community 🙋.

Congratulations to all winners :clap:.

Its really sad.
Acting this way the number of the active memberss here will decrease.
At last only the few ones from the pole position will take part at this forum.

There have been made suggestions to improve many things regarding the forum.
But what happened?

Not sure why the system maths is terrible. You’re right there were 2 votes for each but somehow it gave 19% for one. I’ll get that checked out. But winners updated

It’s probably because it just shows whole numbers to to add up to 100% it has to make one of them 1 point higher. I’m assuming the real percentage was something .2% so that times 5 would give you the 1 extra percent the system added to one of the people that were tied. I hope that makes sense.

What I’d call contractor maths… perhaps should be split the vote, split the points… lol… :thinking:

And split the the participitiants.

Chiquinho I, the happy one, always getting points and gifts.
And Chiquinho II, the sad, unlucky one.
Never getting something. :rofl:

I think the math as stated is due to the percentages difference but wonder if it was dependent on when a person voted. (Ie she was the first one and as the percentages are calculated to whole numbers the extra percentages are added to that first one???) So thus the 1 percent to the first one as that will add to 100 percent.

I think over the course of the Friday songs, there probably has been other weeks that may have had something similar but it is probably rare as most times there is not the same number for each
