The only part that really was correct in that sentence was 72 hours, as that is how long the window is.

You think that 90% of raiding people are unemployed, which is just malarkey (thx Biden).

It also sounds like you are saying that one single person sets up a 72 hour camp and never leaves. I'd say that the most any overachieving person would put in in a single week, not window, is 30-40 hours, and that would be 1% of the sample I have.

On average you will see between 2-3 hours per person. Its a team effort, that involves a large amount of people from different time zones, and in many cases there are gaps in the time that things are being watched. Obviously that is situational, but it occurs often.

Yes, there is tracking involved. No, it does not involve the effort of 10 unemployed neckbeards living at home staring at a computer screen in 12-72 hour shifts. Thats just dumb.

All this being said, I am 100% for the variance being halved, there is no need for whats happening now, whether people know exactly what it is or not. I will agree that its a lot of wasted manhours!
