Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.

Containers
Building/Room	Container	Effective chance
livingroom	shelves	11.21%

This VHS will only spawn once and only in living room shelves, making it incredibly rare.

Trivia

The in-game show Moderators, is a reference to an actual event, when someone on the moderation team tried to ban a user from The Indie Stone Forums, but accidentally made them an admin instead. With this in mind, Moderators genre is ultimately a parody of moderation in forums and games.
