Thus, on average it would take 22 minutes * 20 spawns per named * 4 named per chest = 1,760 minutes per chest (dear god what was I thinking doing six of these things?!?). I'm not against doing that math for people in the wiki, but I'm not sure it's necessary either, since it's just elementary-level math. Thoughts?
That's the whole point of my comment, why is someone converting usable data into a form factor that isn't consumable only for the consumer to convert the data back. Every time a conversion happens data accuracy is reduced.
