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 3 players at their busiest. The crowd on the latest wipe peaked 4 hours in.
Too few wipes are recorded for Ares PVP to establish a pattern. Every server in Rust, this one among them, wipes at the monthly force wipe; Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next. The world you are playing on was built 23 days 13 hours.
