Health

I've redone the "health" graph to use a column chart based on passive aggressive whining and e-peen swinging from daytonchambers and Noashakra on the uthgard forums. Grats, fellas.

BattleBots

If any of you are BattleBots fans, I've started to keep track of the battles and have a CRUDE scoring system after every episode. Come take a look!

The scoring is based on the Elo algorithm, used for chess players.

What Is This?

This is a simple website for tracking the Phoenix freeshard server population trends.

Here are a few things you can do!

Click on (or off) different realms to see how they compare.

On the hourly and daily charts, drag agross the x-axis to zoom in to a smaller time range

Let me know if there's other data you'd like to see!

Caveats/questions

What about RvR? Sadly I don't have any numbers on the who's actually RvR'ing. There is all sorts of speculation about one realm or another being "all PvE", but I doubt it. My suspicion is that each realm in RvR is about the same fraction of the total population, but I have nothing to back this up.

Your data is crap/wrong! Could be. I scrape the website a few times an hour, and every time I've actually checked /serverinfo vs the website, it's been the same. However, I don't get numbers ALL THE TIME, so I will miss peaks and valleys in population. And, everything you see here is averages and max values for a time frame.

Can I get a copy of your data? Maybe. Depends on what you're looking for. I can maybe make an API for some aggregate numbers, or you can scrape my site for the javascript and get them. But ALL the data, likely not. I enjoy doing this for free, but I'm not going to do it for YOU for free. Let me know what you're looking for; perhaps I can provide it.
