This is something I would really need, and I've even PM'd certain players who have coded various applets to try to create something to count how many mobs I've killed. I highly doubt MA will let us know this information so easily, because then it will be very easy to show if one avatar is way "outside the bell curve" of probability with numbers of mobs shot vs. global or HOF ratio.

This would effectively disprove the whole "randomness" of the loot system, and would probably compromise MA's position in a big way.

Example: the "typical" avatar might get a global from mob X after killing between 400 and 600 of them, perhaps, while an "atypical" avatar (one of the chosen ones) might get a score on every 200 of them, or an "unchosen one" might need to kill 1200 of them before seeing a global).

Just think of the implications of this. You can throw all of that "right place, right time" nonsense out the window, because after all is said and done, once a person has hunted enough, "typical" returns ought to happen...the more you hunt, the more the bell curve should be represented. But that's NOT how EU works.

And yes, you can ruin all the fun of hunting by having several sheets of paper beside you and make a tick each time you kill something, and make a note each time you get a global or HOF (or even a better-than-average loot), and I've done all that...but trust me, once you've made 1284 ticks when hunting Atrax (and not even a loot over 35 PEDs, heh) your hand gets pretty tired and you just wanna logout and watch TV or something.
