My ethnicity: roughly 3/4 English and Welsh, roughly 1/4 French Gascon, distant German and East Med. I removed my top 5 matches to see if it gets my ethnic proportions right.

Vahaduo defaults to a penalty of 0, while you have many similar populations in yours.

To see how accurate and close I can get to my real life ethnic background. Had I kept my top matches, the ratio would look closer to mostly Belgian (because they have a similar admixture to me, but I'm not Belgian).
