Imagine it is day 1. You just bought Black Ops and started playing MP.
Think of the time as "game time played" or "hours spent playing MP on an average day" and not "real time" or "when you have a good day."
Don't worry about which Playlist or game mode you are playing, your skill level, or any Double XP weekend.
Think about it like I need to think about it. At a macro level.
In development, we are logging the average XP earned per hour played, so I have a statistically accurate idea of how long it will take you.
