just popped online to play some games, but no one else online. I am about 5-6 hours ahead of you but please can you let me know when the server is normally populated. I know I am from a different timezone, but heck its all tumbleweed right now.

Best time starts between 1 and 5 hours from now. Ends in 17 to 21 hours. The american playerbase is disproportionatly low.

Your flag says you are about 5-6 hours behind of most players.

quote:

Around 16:30 - 21:00 UTC+1 time. (with an average ~2 to 2.5 times more games played than 6:00 - 8:00)


If you want to have more information (eg. numbers for days of the week) then bug RUrankAdminikinz about it, that's his graph. Fridays and weekends are probably the best.

Weekday graph is predictably "lots more activity on weekends", which isn't very interesting or useful so I didn't post it.

A couple people suggested that my graph above is misleading but never really elaborated how. It does include private games and weights all battles equally. Maybe a graph weighted by the team size of battles could be interesting.

Apart from the private games and all that:

What excactly does this graph show?
The x-axis is clock-times.
The y-axis is "games started" and peaks at 24000. One way to read this graph would be that every day at 20:00 'o clock 24000 matches are played. That is clearly not the case, so what does it actually show?
Is it summed up games over many years? (Like a histogram?)

Y is the number of all battles started in the given hour. Among all battles ever played ~24k were started at 19:XX, and ~5k at 7:XX, etc, you get the idea. (This is summed over the entire replay history, but if you only use games played in 2016 you get the same graph, only blockier).

So... make it a histogram then? :P
