Gradual Reduction in MF Effectiveness

[twentythree]

So you roll a die 100 times and it comes up a 5 or a 6 only 1 out of every 6 times.

Then roll a die 100 more times. This next time you do it a 5 or a 6 only comes up 1 out of every 10 times.

Then roll it 100 more times. Now a 5 or a 6 is coming up only 1 out of 1very 20 times.

If it is true that a gradual slide off is happening this slide off will show up if you count only the 6es or if you count both the 6es and the 5-changed-to1-es. Likewise, if the magic find percentage is actually dropping then it doesn't matter if you count only uniques or if you count uniques+uberdurable. The same gradual slide off will show up under either system of counting. Now if the magic find percentage is not going down but instead the failed unique percentage is going up then counting the uberdurables would be needed. But this is not what people are witnessing so I don't see the need to count this way.

And besides, nobody does runs in hopes of getting high durability items. People WANT uniques. When or if anyone ever tests this and if they find that runs 1-10 generated a dozen uniques and runs 11-100 generated zero uniques then guess what? I will only do runs in batches of 10. You may try telling me "but runs 11-100 generated nine dozen items that were ~almost~ uniques so mathematically that is the same". I still wont do runs 11-100 if they wont generate uniques for me.
