The Statistics of the Community Quest that Took 3,000 Souls!
Oooooh! I'm-a gettin' the shivers just standing here. Let's get to the meat of the story, shall we? I hear it's....quite bloody! Ahahahaha. Awooo.
First, there was a community quest, and some nerd came around and he wanted to make some sense of the quest's crazy numbers. He was driven so mad, he made....a graph!
Monster Mash Final Progress Ooooh, isn't that so scary! That green line, representing the pace of our completions, is hovering over a sharp red line made of BLOOD! Ooooh! The red line's the pace we needed to exceed to succeed, at risk of bloody beheading! Even worse, since the green line reached the gold line at the top, that means 3,000 of us completed the quest and succeeded! That means bonus XP...in exchange for our very souls! We'll all turn into zombies, I tell ya!Also, you'll note that this quest started off differently than previous quest. Because the quest set was up a day before the community quest started, about 105 people completed it beforehand, which means the red and green lines get a bit of a head-start. But never mind that! Back to the spooooky story!
...what? It's pretty spooky, isn't it? I tell you, I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight after reading this, and that has nothing to do with the insomnia! Awoooo!
Next, the nerd, driven mad by the call of beasts from the netherworld, created a list of stats and numbers, now permanently locked in stasis! It's almost as if.... they were haunted! Oooooo!
Our Final Stats:
- We completed this community quest in around 76 hours. No witching hour for us -- the bell's a long way away from tolling! 59 hours away, in fact.
- Our final average rate of completion was 38.1 completions per hour over the course of the quest. In the last two hours, it was about 18.4 completions per hour.
- In the Unrealistic Dimension of Horrors, if our overall pace remained steady, we'd have the chance to accumulate a total of 5,245 souls before Halloween.
- In the Only Slightly Unrealistic Dimension of Lost Souls, based on our pace in the last two hours, we'd gather about 4,088 completions of DOOOOOOOM before the Hollow Ween.
- Compared to prior successful quests, Monster Mash was...a little slow. Have a look at the following graph:
Quest Comparison Graph as of Monster Mash The ghost-white line represents this quest. In fact, you'll note that out of all successful quests, Monster Mash took the longest time to succeed. Is this a sign that the community goals are closer to their proper amounts, or a sign that people are getting sick of quests? I'll let you make the assumption there.
