Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
The average peak across its recent wipes is 1 players. The crowd on the latest wipe peaked 0 hours in. In 0% of recent wipes, population held above half the peak right through to the next wipe. In the other cases it dropped under half by day 2.
No next wipe can be predicted for Lab, which wipes at irregular times. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe arrives, and every Rust server wipes with it. 4 days 10 hours have passed since this world was generated.
