Hi! It's a known fact that SB+ and Maki both increase the [[Hunting_Sequence#A_mouse_is_encountered|encounter rate]] for Students... It seems that the articles were recently reworded to use the word "attracted" instead, which I will agree is rather misleading. If you can think of a better way to put it, please do. -- [[User:Camomiletea|Camomiletea]] 00:59, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Where does one find evidence of increased encounter rates? I'd be curious to read that- sounds like an old wive's tale to me. You get more students with SB+, yes- you get more of EVERY mouse with SB+. There's nothing special about students in that regard.--[[User:Kirbix|Kirbix]] 01:25, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Student mice

Hi! It's a known fact that SB+ and Maki both increase the encounter rate for Students... It seems that the articles were recently reworded to use the word "attracted" instead, which I will agree is rather misleading. If you can think of a better way to put it, please do. -- Camomiletea 00:59, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Where does one find evidence of increased encounter rates? I'd be curious to read that- sounds like an old wive's tale to me. You get more students with SB+, yes- you get more of EVERY mouse with SB+. There's nothing special about students in that regard.--Kirbix 01:25, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

In a sense you could call Maki a replacement meant specially for the Dojo Students, since the conversion rate is at 1:1, SB+ to Maki. SB+ is a poorer choice since it is improbable that it boosts the encounter rate of students as much as, or more than Maki.
