Jim asked in the most recent Livestream today how many hours cub actually put into the season 10 server.
And not gonna lie, that looks like a crazy amount.
So I'm tackling this problem by working backwards.
The server ran for 18 months. The absolute maximum time any hermit could have played is simply by never logging off the entire approx 548 days the server was live.
548 days x 24 hours = absolute maximum time on the server, 13152 hours.
1 minecraft day is 20 minutes. Therefore for every 1 hour that passes in real life, 3 go by in minecraft.
So the absolute maximum time that could be spent on server would be (in minecraft time) 13,152 real life hours × 3 minecraft days per hour = 39,456 minecraft days.
Cub has spent 173,860,205 somethings on the server and it cannot be minecraft days.
If we instead think this as the ticks spent on the server then...
1 minecraft day = 20 minutes = 24,00 ticks
173,860,205 ÷ 24,000 = 7,244 minecraft days spent (rounded down)
~7,244 minecraft days ÷ 3 (to convert to RL hours) = 2,415 hours total (rounded up)
AKA ~101 days of playtime.
Which is still a huge amount but much more plausible.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.
