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.
The average peak across its recent wipes is 4 players. The crowd on the latest wipe peaked 17 hours in. The crowd stayed above half that peak until the next wipe in 50% of its recent wipes. On those occasions it fell below half by day 2.
