	Why not use the Fibbinochi series (start off with 0 and 1
and find the next value of the series by adding the two previous
values.)

0 	0%
1	1%
2	1%
3	2%
4	3%
5	5%
6	8%
7	13%
8	21%
9	34%
10	55%
11	89%
12	144 (actually 100%).

	I rather just leave it at 5, but the Fibbinochi series
grows much more rapidly than the arithmetic series above.
