Some SkyrimCalculator stats & thoughts

Wow, has it really been nine months since I came up with the idea of running a blog? I guess it’s not really working out too well. I really wanted to post regularly, but you know. Things, and stuff.

It’s quite likely that you came here by following the link in the footer of skyrimcalculator.com. Which means you will probably find this at least somewhat interesting.

First point on the agenda today: Some great news: The 50.000th build has been saved last monday! I would never have believed this calculator would become so popular. At this moment it generates about 110.000 unique visitors a month at a steady 7.000 visits a day. If you’re interested in more stats, let me know :)

I had a look at the weekly results of clickheat today (it shows where your users tend to click and generates a heatmap based on that), and I noticed something funny; the Two Handed skill seems to be very impopular as it received the smallest amount of clicks. I had the impression that there were hordes of heavy armored aggressive maniacs with massive axes of epic destruction running around in the world of Skyrim, but this makes you believe otherwise.
The same seems to go for Lockpicking and Pickpocketing, though this doesn’t surprise me.

What do you think is the cause of this mysterious case? Why have all the cool kids stopped using two-handed weapons?
