MouseHunt Analytics

Hello everyone! MouseHunt Analytics deal with the mechanism of MouseHunt – how to catch mice, the best places to hunt, and how to maximize profits and have more fun. Since this is the main purpose of the Analytics section, I decided to write an article on the different tools developed by us, which you’ll find here: Pooflinger’s MouseHunt Tools. Read on to find out all about the different tools, and how to use them effectively.

• Log Summarizer: The Log Summarizer forms the base for the rest of the tools, as well as being an incredibly useful tool to find out how the hunting is going. So, what does it do? The Log Summarizer uses your journal entries (found on your Hunter’s Camp page under the title ‘Hunter’s Journal’ to give you a concise summary of your hunting data. See a sample by clicking here.

  If you find it painstaking to copy and paste all your logs to the summarizer, you can use the MouseHuntizer to auto-post the journals to the Summarizer. Also consider using the Log Parser to separate journal data by location.

• Catch Rates Estimates: Catch Rates Estimates is a tool that umm, tells you catch rates. It also provides a option for you to compare two setups side-by-side to find the better one. See a sample by clicking here.

  Usage – Once you navigate to the tool, use the button to decide whether you want to use one or two setups. Then, select the Trap, Base, Cheese and Location for the setup, as well as your Hunter’s title and Golden Shield status. Once this is done, you’ll see a table with overall catch rates, overall attraction rates, points and gold per hunt, catch rates for each mouse in that location, and the expected number of catches per 100 hunts. All in all, a great tool.

• Best Setup Generator: The Best Setup Generator generates a list of the best trap setups to catch a particular mouse. You select all the traps and bases you own, as well as your title and a mouse. The tool automatically tells you the 3 best setups to use to catch that mouse, along with estimated catch rates. You could use this in a variety of situation; for example, to find the best setup to catch a particular map-carrying mouse, or in a tournament which involves catching a certain mouse. And I’m sure our fellow MouseHunters can think of more creative uses for it too.

• Best Locations Tool: The Best Location tool is another incredibly useful tool. How does it work? You select the traps, bases and cheese you own. Also select the locations you can travel to. Hit ‘Generate’, and the tool gives you a lot of useful information – the best setups and locations (with cheese!) for points and gold, information on all the trap setups, as well as gold, point, attraction and catch rates for each location and setup.The tool can even optionally take in a mouse, and generate the 5 best setups for catching the mouse, based on the information you’ve given.

  Its so simple to use, yet amazingly useful, its hard to put it into words. You could use it for anything – to find out how to level up fastest, or how to earn enough money for that ACRoNYM really quickly. You could even figure out how to rapidly rise up the scoreboard!

Thats it for today. You can check out the rest of the tools here. Leave a comment if you want to know more, or if you have suggestions.
