[My Name is Immaterial]

Some of you are familiar with the statistics center at the bottom of the main page. Most of you aren't, probably, because it's tucked away. Go check it out before continuing.

With me? Good! Do you like data? No? Too bad! Here's a ton of it!
Spreadsheet!

That spreadsheet is the collection of the data from the very bottom of the statistics center, in Excel format with "fancy" graphs. Topics per day/month, Posts per day/month, New members per day/month and Most members online at once per day/month. It's all there, from 6/15/2008 up to last month. I'm even working on some side projects, like an automated updating system and a predictive algorithm. If you'd like to help out with that, just play around with it, or have any questions, please feel free to ask!

I thought that you all might be interested, so here you go.
By the way, the early 2010 and 2012 spikes are undoubtedly DF2010 and DF2012, incase you were wondering. December 8th, 2010 is still a mystery to me, however.
That said, Haspen did some digging and came back with this:

According to devlog, that day Toady posted a bunch FotF reply links... and that's it v:

I actually check those stats fairly regularly, when I'm not stalking the "recent users" section, or browsing the calander section to see when people's birthdays are.




...What?

[My Name is Immaterial]

Ah! A like minded fellow!

[My Name is Immaterial]

As a bump, I've added a third sheet to check out, with some statistical information, like monthly means, standard deviation and variance. I will at some point add graphs too.

[Haspen]

Why your months only have 12 days? v:

DERP NEVERMIND ._.

[10ebbor10]

It's the google standard, if you're wondering. Which is kind of annoying.

[My Name is Immaterial]

It is very annoying, but eh. It suits my purpose.

@ Who ever commented r/mildly interesting.
Thank you! I try.

I'm being taken off the top 10 post count by FG&RPers. I must tell myself, it isn't worth it, that we don't need another wave of LW spam...

Too late. You will never reclaim your previous glory. Now all you can bask is the leftover aftertaste.

DON'T TEMPT ME

Its less FG and more RP, actually. Realm of the mad god Rise of the magic girls has a ridiculous amount of posts for something that isn't a huge rtd or in general discussion, it has somewhere in the rage of 40-50% of the posts the happy thread has according the the bars in the stats center.

[Tawa]

Yeah, it's disproportionately big.

Now, if only my D & D campaign could be that big...

Right, David?

Anyway, more on topic...

Really, there was a crazy members-online jump back in late 2010? What happened back there?

Your game is already got 7 people. That's a ton. Seriously. I've got like 5 players in my game, and it's a ton of work keeping them all busy.

Yeah, I do have a lot of people in my game.

Still, if I could have half the amount of posts that game has...

[Haspen]

Make a FEF; ton of waitlisters and RP posts guaranteed with moderate posting pace included
