Rep points drop-down ignored.
I just recently disagreed with someone on this post. I set the point amount to 100, but this amount was ignored and 136 was used instead (half of my rep power of 273 at the time).
This is contrary to the FAQ thread which states (emphasis mine):

You may enter the number of reputation points (this is optional, and you can leave it set to its default value). When you agree with a post, you can increase the poster's reputation by the number of reputation points you have. If you disagree with their post, their reputation points will decrease by the half the number of reputation points you have. However, this textbox allows you to select a different number of reputation points to give or take away.
I suspect a bug, but mainly because I expect it to use the number I specified.

Same thing happened to me... I didn't really think much of it, but now that you mentioned it, figured i'd bring it up as well. Happened twice...
