I have no idea how long it actually take to walk a local map (the one that's slightly smaller than a minimap) but I assumed 30 seconds. Roughly, that would be a radius of 2400 tiles, and with a round world that's 18,000,000 tiles total. If each has just 1 mirkwood log and each of 500 players online was using 1 log a day, it would take 36,000 days to use them all up.
I think we can safely assume that there's many more mirkwood than that and they're being used up at a much slower pace. See you in 40 years.
but what if 15% of the map were swamp and each tile spawned 2-3 logs of mirkwood, math pls
The same amount or more is water and has no mirkwood.
If I had to guess, though, the number of mirkwoods in the world is probably, like everything else, more than we could ever reasonably use through normal gameplay, even if the world is destined to last twice as long as those before it.
I would not be surprised if 100,000,000 was a conservative estimate.
