The count

Every five minutes, from the Steam server list.
Hourly average and peak, UTC.
Daily average and peak, UTC.
Embedded chart
48 hours: hourly readings. 30 to 90 days: one point a day, with the day's average and lowest fps, most entities and most memory. From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag.

Coming up · wipe schedule
Not enough wipes seen yet to tell when the next one is. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.
This server has not put up a new map since the desk started watching it.
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.
snowball's wipe history is too thin on record to show a rhythm. Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next monthly force wipe, and no Rust server is spared it. This world dates from 52 days 20 hours.
These are the Rust Live Stats lists snowball fits: Live Rust community servers. Under the filters Type: Community (not modded, not official) and No plugins at all; Group limit: 5 or more it appears on the server list.
These are the tags snowball makes public: gmrust (Game mode): The game mode is standard Rust survival; mp1 (Max players): Slots: 1; ts8 (Group limit): Teams stop at 8, the default the game ships with; v2633 (Protocol): Join only if your game is on protocol 2633; cs163794 (Build): The game build is 163794; ptrak (Networking): RakNet is the network layer — the game's standard one; $r?

Nothing in the name of snowball states a gather rate. Eight players per group, which is the game's default. It runs survival, the standard game: gather, build, raid. Raiding and player combat are both permitted. You find it under Community in the server browser. VAC is enabled: Valve's anti-cheat.
The map on snowball is procedural, made by the game itself.
No region is published by snowball. The location shown on Rust Live Stats is the one a server gives, not a lookup of the machine's position. You can reach it at 46.138.15.179:28015.
The setup on snowball is Rust network protocol 2633 and build 163794 with Windows. Joining requires the same protocol on your game; Steam takes care of updating it.
