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. The crowd on the latest wipe peaked 2 hours in.
The record holds too few of Dark Light's wipes to reveal its rhythm. Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next monthly force wipe, and no Rust server is spared it. 14 days 13 hours have passed since this world was generated.
