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 0 players. Peak population on the latest wipe came 0 hours after it.
The record holds too few of ME21's wipes to reveal its rhythm. Every server in Rust, this one among them, wipes at the monthly force wipe; Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next. 11 days 10 hours have passed since this world was generated.
