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.
Recent wipes on this server averaged a peak of 0 players at their busiest. The crowd on the latest wipe peaked 0 hours in.
Too few wipes are recorded for Staging to establish a pattern. Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next monthly force wipe, and no Rust server is spared it. This world dates from 15 days 9 hours.
