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 3 players. Peak population on the latest wipe came 16 hours after it.
The monthly force wipe is the only wipe Rusty Tortoise takes. The force wipe on Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is its next wipe, and every Rust server wipes then. This world dates from 25 days 14 hours. The tags carry a monthly wipe schedule.
