Anyone with any sense of reason can see that the phrases "close but not quite there" and "close but no cigar" both effectively relay the message that you have fallen just short of a successful outcome and have received no reward for your efforts.
You have yet to show otherwise other than saying -nuh uh!-
Try again.
Go.
Define the "reward" in this context.
How can there be no cigar if you can't even tell me where my definition fell short?
It can't be very far from mine to whatever neither of you can posit as the Ideal.
You heard an interesting story about WW2...you don't know **** about statistics...
