Answer 2

I accept two answers.
On a microwave, When you press 99, it'll run for 99 seconds. When you press 100, it'll run for a minute.
And when you're in a tournament. 99th place is better than 100th place.

Answer 3

The timer of a microwave.

The the timer of a microwave generally consists of 4 digits. First two digit for minutes and next two for seconds.
So,
99 indicates - 1 minute 39 seconds
100 indicates - 1 minutes (1:00)
