[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 8310366, member: 6795602"] I measure a high level campaign as a campaign that ends at high levels. If you have 10 groups who started and ended their campaigns at high levels at various times then you are going to have something that looks like this in the data: Group 1's high level characters count as active high level characters for January. Group 2's high level characters count as active high level characters for Feburary. Etc. [B](Note: Characters have to attain high level and keep being played to count as active)[/B] Of those 10 high level groups you are only going to show only 1/10 were campaigns that end at high levels. We could accurately say - there's only 1 high level campaign going on at any point in time - but that's not really a piece of information anyone cares about. Sure. I think that would exclude test characters - probably a few real characters as well but probably minor. That kind of backs up what I was saying. If you start at level 1 then in encounter terms as you defined above - about 40/212 of your time is played at level 16-20. That means only maybe 20% of high level campaigns would be counted. But that's the problem right, we don't actually know how they are doing it. Do you know what their methodology actually is? Because what I've read of it they have some good ideas, but not enough to back up the claims that people here use their data to make. [/QUOTE]
