Hard to find *anyone* like me, heh.

Currently on okcupid, after answering over 400 of their questions... my top-ten matches are mostly all people I've met... no lovers, but some friends: basmati, karenbynight, vvvexation, xaosia (unknown LJ), questioner, lysana, cortneyofeden, mactavish, eeyore_grrl, and rosefox. I've met seven, and six are already on my LJ list...

The computed match percentages range from 85-81%... so I doubt that I'd show up anywhere near the top of these folks' own lists (most people seem to have more, higher-percentage matches... hey, I'm just weird, OK? ;^). And my "worldwide" list is even lower, starting at 80% downward...

OK, the results lists are a bit odd -- I had one at 89/90% that's still in the system but never shows on my list anymore, but mostly, my high world is 85/86% and my high local is 83%.

The highest ex I've found is 78/79%.

(The %s seem to vary as we answer different questions, but usually only by about a percent, at least on the high matches.)

I've noticed that if you tweak it by changing the local settings back and forth from "let okcupid pick" to "same state only", the trivial recomputation sometimes reclaims previously-missing matches.

I have one local person that shows up at 88%, actually, but is same-gender... after awhile, the high matches seem to converge, remaining nearly constant.
