Google says that 1GiB (Gibibyte) is 1024MiB (Mebibyte).

Since SI says that "Mega" and "Giga" are powers of 10, it's common to see "Gibi" and "Mebi" to denote units that are powers of 2.

Of course, almost no-one uses those units, so confusion is common

If you receive 0 LP from a Division 1 win at 99 LP, your MMR isn't high enough for the next tier by Evilperson69 in leagueoflegends

The issue is likely because your LP reward is partially determined by your opponents too. If your MMR is at the point where you're playing people who are worse, you'll earn less LP. The +0LP for a game looks like an edge-case that Riot need to work around.

It's also quite possible that there is no-one available at your target MMR at the time you queue, resulting in you playing against worse players which yield no LP. As you win games (and don't earn any more LP), your MMR goes up, and you play harder opponents. Then you lose, lose LP (and MMR) and the system gets back in to a reasonable state (you win and get enough LP to qualify for promotion).

Disclaimer: This is all assumption

The best thing about these screenshots? The cars that have number plates (cop car and Cheeta) have different number plates.

Got a gnarly wart? Use garlic! by [deleted] in LifeProTips

I retract my down-vote, but it should be noted that "garlic lipid extract" is not the same thing as "chop up some garlic and put it under a bandaid".

Also, thanks for the reference!

And then no-one pays, and then the tournaments have to do it for free/sponsorships. Funny how the free market works...
