When Chris says that lab haters are a minority, how right is he?

Last time Chris gave us numbers before Perandus they said that they had 6 million registered accounts.

6,000,000 x 0.01 (1%) the amount of players that map it to end game maps according to their numbers.

Thats 60,000 players.

Now based on that lets used said forum numbers yet again from the polls, which is only slight higher than last time.

321 votes for "hating it" in this poll even though many of the other polls it was lower than this number.

321/60,000 = 0.00535

0.00535 x 100 = .535%

.535% of players who are hitting end game content hate the labyrinth.

lol its no where near 5% of the active player base who play this game end game.

am i blind here you combine 1% 60000 endgame user with a poll in the forum where it is crystal clear that not all payer participate in the forum
furthermore you extrapolate from this number
makes zero sense and its horrible math aswell

makes more sense to ask 100 player how many ppl in their friendlist play lab atm

If you weren't blind you'd realize that EVERY single poster here is extrapoling and assuming facts to get the conclusion they want. Honesty is nowhere to be found.

Im not bending the numbers though, im making the assumption based on FACTUAL numbers we do know.

We know that 1% of the total accounts have made it to endgame maps, this number is actually probably higher after perandus.

Anyways the numbers here represent the population that makes it to end game thus more than likely is or has done merciless labyrinth. This entire argument is vocal minority vs silent majority.

This is showing how small the vocal minority is in terms of the end game numbers, and how large the silent majority is.

Sorry, but your logic fails on the bases that there are 6 million active players. You need to find first the number of active players, not POE accounts. Because majority of those 6 million do not play the game anymore, or played it a long time ago and left.
