Ok oh all knowing barkeep, why does it happen then? 
Okay? you know you can only smite one person per hour?

Well, if somebody was on say zero and you smiteth them they go to -1 (obviously).
But if for some reason you then
applaud them they don?t go back to zero ? oh no ? it takes off the smite you gave them within the last hour then adds on the applause so it jumps from -1 to +1
See?
