I found tht video to be terribly put together.

1) didn't only consider xp other there would be more invention (it looked at dry pets, then chose the top 10 that didn't have overlapping skills from what it looks like)
2) it included xp that doesn't give pet chances. 161m agility is nearly 1k hours of running laps which i guarantee nobody did for pet.
3) doesn't track past 200m (as proved by rank 1) so any players that started with 200m or got 200m during their streak are essentially disqualified.
4) does not say starting xp, so who knows how truly unlucky some of these are. we were told before release that getting a pet before lvl 99 was super rare so imo the first 13m xp of pet chances are abysmal.

just my thoughts btw. and is there any chance i could have my name removed from this list like trim highscores #300? its ok if not, or ty in advance whichever

Agree, I like the idea behind these videos that Shauny says they'll be doing at the beginning, but the execution didn't seem great for this one in particular.

Just using xp when several skills aren't affected by xp and will have boosted numbers from using high xp methods like Ornate tortles or Crystal skillchins over charm sprites for instance incorrectly represents how dry someone were on that pet.

Perhaps it'll work out better for more straighforward things like dry streaks at boss pets as there are fewer variables to account for.

And sure, if anyone doesn't want their names to be listed I can replace them with a placeholder.
Grats btw!

Belated grats!

The twitter account @Jagexauto (https://twitter.com/jagexauto) automatically tweets out various broadcast messages, like ironman deaths, jack of all trades unlocks, trimmed completionist cape unlocks etc.
Hence as long as you get a news broadcast when you unlock the title there is no need for any other proof, but seeing the xp players needed for their pets is neat imo.
Usually there will be a decent spread of lucky and unlucky pets.
