What logical sense does waiting for a CRT to be posted to finally have an issue with a calculation make?
For no reason, a calculation can exist for weeks to months at a time, and the moment we have a CRT, there's a random new issue with a calculation.
I won't link any CRTs because that isn't the business of most people here, but it happens a lot and it's irritating and useless as hell.
But if you want me to, I gladly will. I know a verse with like 6 different showings of this in the past year alone.
Holding back revisions because you don't like a calculation isn't a reason to pause the work of a handful of people.
A calculation is made, people never speak in the calculation's comments, calculation marinates for like a month, nobody speaks, heck sometimes they won't even evaluate it when it desperately needs an evaluation for weeks on end, then it gets evaluated and accepted, and then when a CRT is formed, "I have a problem with the calculation", holds off thread for a month, calculation group thread wastes time and never concludes, necro thread.
Shit, sometimes people have issues with calculations when a big thread is about to close. 7 pages of arguing bickering and scaling, and then out of nowhere "I have an issue".
Let's not lie and say it doesn't happen. It happens all the time. I open random CRTs in the CR forums and I see a thread being held off because a calc that's older than some members here has a random problem.
I've had my own threads shut down because they were getting too long (3 days), but this shit happens all over the wiki and nothing happens.
There seriously needs to be a rule against people postponing threads because of their personal issues with calcs.
I don't care at all how it's worded. If you want a grace period after a calculation is formed to form an issue with it, go ahead. If you want no discussion about calculations in CRTs, go ahead (I'd be perfectly fine with that). But it isn't fair to the CRT planners and the supporters/opponents who've spoken, planned, debated, argued, and worked for days on end just for their conversations to be shat on last minute with a "I don't like the way you rounded off this decimal".
Edit: Regular Members are allowed to speak if they have valid input. I don't want FRA trains or bashing or random agreeals to fill this thread up.
