Thank you, Eos. Fascinating stuff.
Some factors that might be skewing results:
- Many people stopped training pre-BB in anticipation of it getting easier;
- Other people, most notably Bishops and AMs, put in extra training pre-BB, in anticipation of it getting harder once their Ultimates become unspammable;
- Many people still not training, either due to shock/anger at the loss of 2x/4x, confusion ("where/how am I supposed to train now?"), waiting for LHC, training up a new char of another class "since it's so easy now", or being afk on their mules waiting for rings to evolve...
I expect that next month we'll have no Truckers/Gallos messing up the game, but we will have new classes that people may be playing instead of attempting to level their old high-level characters. Most maplers will also be on vacation for at least part of the time, which can either mean a lot more time to play or none at all (if they travel). I don't think there is ever a "normal time" in maple...
But, please, do keep these statistics coming.
