Actually, it was a draw. 75% of the time, you were right

Poor maths to go along with my awesome misquote!

it was a number pulled out of my ass (obviously). Cba to count the amount of misuses and calculate the percent.

Cba to ... calculate the percent.

It was purposeful misquote... on purpose.
draw, meaning to have equal parts, suggesting 75% whether pulled out of your arse or not, present the fact it obviously was not a draw.
3 - 1 = 75% - 25% = Win - Lose != Draw

/sigh

I think he meant:

Soviet | Others ( I guess )

Win | 75% | 25%
Representing | 50% | 50%

You could think of it as they need different standards to 'win'. In this example the 25% was enough to take away the draw.
I know your way of looking at it is correct, but this is also possible.

ps. Quote this post to see the darn percentage correctly..

doesn't matter. It could have been 99% and 1%. If there was anything including what he said along with what I said, it would have been a "draw" seeing as we would have both been right.

So, if there were 100 incidents in which the person can be right or wrong, and one person was correct 99 times and the other person right once, you would call that a draw [in terms of correct]?

They dont call 'draws' 50/50 for nothing...

Percentage has absolutely nothing to deal with this case being a draw, and I thought that you would have understood that by simply looking at the 99% to 1% comparison in my original explanation. He was right, and I was right. Both sides of the discussion were correct (to what extent doesn't matter), therefore it was a draw. This is a specific situation in which I can call it a draw, whereas there are others which I would not call it a draw. If you cannot understand that, then I believe I have nothing more to tell, because this is all opinionated and (in my opinion, ironically) I don't want to discuss this situation beyond what I have already stated.

Draw = it must be exactly equal with nothing seperating.

exactly.

Draw = it must be exactly equal with nothing seperating.

exactly.

But you have just said the opposite that 99% - 1% is a draw....well, it isn't.

He was right, and I was right.

With both sides being correct, it can be declared a draw.

This isn't football, though. It's an all or nothing situation, there is no score. There is no "more right" or "less right".

I saw there was maths involved in this and got excited at the prospect of clearing the situation up ... but then I realised it was a boring as fuck argument!
