Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

What on earth does this mean? I'm not a world-class expert in mathology but I've never seen this kind of relative comparison before.
None of the 152 people in the trial correctly guessed correctly on more than 5 profiles, out of the 12 profiles they were given.
I think they just left off the subject of each phrase; 0 out of 152 astrologists did better than 5 out of 12 questions. Though it is phrased weirdly either way.
Well I suppose what they're saying is no response had a success rate equal to or greater than fifty percent, but yeah it's not exactly reported academically.
Because astrology is something that lends itself to clear academic reporting?
