Willing to bet they're referring to THIS post. If not, I'd really like to see where it was debunked also. Otherwise, it's just an assumption.

If we count 3 difficulty levels of labyrinth and 3 aspirant trials per labyrinth run at each difficulty this equals 9 instances of aspirant trials. Compare this to everything else in the list and it seems obvious that Regulator is correct in at least the way things were counted. The motivation part of Regulator's post is debatable but the way aspirant trials instances are being counted seems obvious.

It also could just mean that they're referring to merciless & uber laby. But seeing as what your crusade is pushing for, I can see why you'd think that. As with everything else laby related, it's all just speculation anyway.

P.S. Nice work getting a direct link to the post. Did you get that by going through Regulator's posting history or do you know an easier way?

I just went thru my own history to find where he called me "simple minded". EZPZ

An instance is an instance so it probably really includes all four difficulties times three. But okay, let's say just merciless and uber. That is still more than three times the number of instances since each labyrinth run is three instances of aspirant trials. Which means it would still be misleading when put into a list of true single instances. But I can see why you wouldn't understand seeing as what your crusade is pushing for, I can see why you'd think that. :-)

Sure, lets just keep pretending that the areas with the highest profit potential aren't being regularly farmed by many.

I'm not the one on a crusade so your "I know you are but what am I?" statement is pointless and childish at best.

Sure, keep pretending that multiplying by three instances per labyrinth run and adding together labyrinth difficulties still compares reasonably with a merciless: Dried Lake and cruel Dried Lake instances.

Your statement was just as pointless and childish as mine, so nanananaa.

You know they did this for a fact? Care to prove it?

Is it possible that's what they did? Sure.
Is it possible they didn't include the difficulty because there are 2 different labys in merc? Maybe.
Is it possible they are only counting the final aspirants trial of each run? Seems so.
Is it possible that we'll never know unless they state how they came to their conclusion? Seems the most likely.

They'll never say because saying so would be admitting their 'creative' stat fudging.

"The attractiveness of conspiracy theories may arise from a number of cognitive biases that characterize the way we process information. “Confirmation bias” is the most pervasive cognitive bias and a powerful driver of belief in conspiracies. We all have a natural inclination to give more weight to evidence that supports what we already believe and ignore evidence that contradicts our beliefs. The real-world events that often become the subject of conspiracy theories tend to be intrinsically complex and unclear. Early reports may contain errors, contradictions and ambiguities, and those wishing to find evidence of a cover-up will focus on such inconsistencies to bolster their claims."

edit: in easier to understand words: you simply dont know whats fact and whats not, but admitting that would shatter your view of things...

Prove me wrong, clown. Do that, and I will relent.

Ask GGG to explain that they only meant one specific trial areal and not the combined created instances of ALL trial areas.

To any person with any kind of rational reasoning ability, it is crystal clear what they did there. No confirmation bias or whatever nonsensical BS you want to explain it away with is necessary.

lol, i (and shovelcut, for what its worth) totally agree that its possible that they summed up all instances created. but i dont know it for sure and i dont speculate.

you are the one desperately trying to "explain something away" and uses "nonsensical (and rethorical) BS"... ("To any person with any kind of rational reasoning ability, it is crystal clear...") óÒ

i dont have an agenda. im fine with the state of affairs. you guys have. your throwing arround with wild speculations, and its your task to prove that what you claim is the truth. but you cant.

and no, that paragraph about confirmation bias is no rethorical bs from me, its on point and exactly what your doing... and again... and again... and again...
