Yes, congratulations. 

Silly note for whoever is not busy: did you realise that the
crowdsupply percent counter rounds percentages before 100% but
truncates them from 100% on.

so $74500 of $150000 was expressed as 50% (it's closer to 49.66666%,
so rounded to 50%)

but $154220 of $150000 is expressed as 102% (it's closer to
102.81333333%, so trucated to 102% instead of rounded to 103%).

I guess one does not want the 100% to appear before the goal is reached, 
and maybe that affected the >101% outputs as well

Curious, I don't know if it is intentional or some (absolutely
irrelevant) bug.  I guess intentional.
