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 12% of all ranked servers, and #119 of the solo servers (top 53%). 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
