Measurements
Players
Every five minutes, from the Steam server list.
Hourly average and peak, UTC.
Daily average and peak, UTC.
Server performance
48 hours: hourly readings. 30 to 90 days: one point a day, with the day's average and lowest fps, most entities and most memory. From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag.
Rank
Top 68% of all ranked servers. Ranked on player hours over the last seven days.
Wipe schedule
Its wipes keep no rhythm, so there is no next wipe to predict. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.
The first 48 hours of its last wipes
Players each hour, from the hour of the wipe. The latest peaked at 1, 0 hours in.

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.
