Accuracy Report Doesn't Understand Math

This accuracy report thing makes no sense. In a game I played I had 12 inaccuracies in a 44 move game, which is 27% of my moves. Then how could I possibly play 95% accuracy? The highest it should be is 73%.

This is precisely why this accuracy thing is a miserable failure.  It teaches nothing except for some to obsess over how high a score they can get.

The computer takes the difference between best move by computer and your move, having more inaccuracy doesn't mean it lowers you accuracy by a fixed amount, for example, a inaccuracy can give you -0.1 accuracy or it might give you -1 accuracy, it depends.You can even get 30 inaccuracies and still get 90+ accuracy, this is the same as blunder,mistake and missed win.All best moves sometimes don't even give you 100% accuracy,all excellent also might give you a accuracy lower than 90%.So don't complain without knowing.

This state that 100% is determined by the engine and not the number of mistakes,inaccuracies,blunders and missed wins.
