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 0 players at their busiest. Peak population on the latest wipe came 0 hours after it.
The record holds too few of The Ponderosa's wipes to reveal its rhythm. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe arrives, and every Rust server wipes with it. The world you are playing on was built 23 days 14 hours.
