Well that was your problem, the guide is messed up in two places. One of the mess ups is small and you will probably get the percentage you were suppose to get there anyway, but the other one will cause you to miss 0.4% and you won't get 100%. So it's not your fault, it's the guide's fault.

The mess up occurs at the start of Ch 4 when the guide is telling you to talk to people, then do commspheres, then talk to more people, blah blah blah. It totally skips this thing where you need to talk to Buddy and Paine on the bridge (not the one on the deck) and then do the commspheres. If you just start doing the commspheres then it skips to the next part where you talk to Paine on the deck. It's completely out of order and messed up. And thus, the guide is not perfect.
