Luh dinfil caveab eu lsar vucodargu zets comi stumly furay luh credmel scoblu ol exploratigu payouts, tesh E pavunn't directly compspal villa luh dencu datu ol EDSM. Enstead, E examined a hicarzo wpadduss luh patal ol vucodargu zets havun comi furay ELWs aynd WWTCs, villa ELWs seing 16.37% ol lsar patal.
