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.
At their busiest, its recent wipes averaged 1 players. Peak population on the latest wipe came 0 hours after it.
Test Server Alpha's wipe history is too thin on record to show a rhythm. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe arrives, and every Rust server wipes with it. This world dates from 12 days 20 hours.
