#37589, "PBF Request"


          

Just randomly looking over PBF top tens, and noted the "# of times criminal". Is there any chance we could get "# of hrs as a criminal"? It seems like it would be a more accurate example of how much of an outlaw one is. Admittedly, you could just break the law once and run away for 300 hours, or break the law constantly, get caught, & re-wanted and each would be very skewed. However, given the natural aversion to dying, I would think one would more often be a repeat criminal while wanted and hence # of hrs wanted would be more accurate.

I realize that could be a little off regarding if you're wanted say like....5 minutes only, but I'm guessing it might be feasible to measure shorter spans like each game-hour, and maybe "rough guess" game hours to RL hours for a semi-accurate guide. Anyways, I'm rambling. I <3 Zulg?

I tend to go long periods wanted but relatively low frequency.

% of life spent as a criminal might be more useful. Conveys the same information, but fits in better with the other "% of life" stats (e.g. time in cities, time in the Inn, etc.)
