How Many Games Is An Acceptable Sample Size For a Personal Stat Chart?

Pulsar

Just wondering what the minimum amount of games I'd need to play is in order to be able to draw some basic conclusions from the data.

Obviously, 10 games means very little but 1000 games is way too many to be done quickly.

What's the happy medium?

Somewhere between 20 - 40 games maybe, or you could go 50-70.

What stats are you trying to get?

I'm tracking the following items:

Maps.

Killers seen.

Map offerings used and by whom.

If I was in a group or not and if so, how large was it.

How many Kills the Killer got.

How many hook states the Killer got.

The Killer's perks.

If there were any DC's/suicides and if so, how many.

On what hook states did the DC's/suicides occur.

Whether or not the Killer BM'd for no discernible reason.

What add-ons the Killer ran.

and if the bubba facecamped.

I would go for 100 personally. 100 games would give you a nice straightforward percentage and it wouldn't take terribly long, assuming you'll be grinding it. The definition of "percent" is "out of 100" afterall.

I was gonna shoot for it anyway

I had 500 last time I did stats but that was a while ago and I was tracking totems cleansed.

Great minds think alike. 👉🦎👉

I suppose they do.

I'm only at 35, so it'll be a bit still.
