Designes notes say that in Epic all fractions are rounded up.

It was argued that in Epic the rounding is favourable. Ergo the down to 0 thing.


It depends if you're rounding the remainder or the ammount removed..

Regardless the fairer option is rounding to a minimum of one.

To a minmium of 1 was said a lot, including by me. Indeed I tried to get Matt to change it to a minimum of 1 in EpicUK as well.

Why not just do the normal EPIC "round up" and not have an exception to that usual practice?

Because all other points in ATSKNF is round down.

This is true. Of course, none of them have a "minimum of 1" clause, either. Any change is going to break with the pattern.

Since we already have the "but not zero" clause, I think it's the smallest tweak to go to "minimum of 1."
