Why not use a one-week moving average? Weekends give an expected periodic component to the data, so a window of one week (or n weeks) will avoid noise due to some months having more weekends. Moving average because it can give sensible data for today without having to wait for the month (or week) to end.

(It's hard to do statistics without appearing like (being?) a pedant.)

The plan was to replace the first graph by last 30 days. Not sure if i want to stop the monthly average earlier, it's probably an exception this month, and at least after 20 days the average already has some meaning

Honestly, I like seeing the daily numbers (the first graph) and don't look at the monthly numbers.

So January was its best month ever?

Just in case you're serious, I'll explain this. The graph simply averages the total number of games per day over all the days in the month. At the time of this writing, January has only had 6 1/2 days. The big spike caused by TotalBiscuit's review caused a large number of games to be played within that span. By the time January ends, its average number will likely be significantly reduced.

Really, January shouldn't show up on the graph until February starts.

I am always serious! Thats why my friends keep calling me 'Seriously Ozle?' (although sometimes they follow that up with Shut Up, but Ive never met that guy)

I was looking at the top graph, thats not a month by month thing, it has too many data points.  and the early days in Jan are thier busiest ever, having a really high spike at the beginning of the month is a good thing, no matter the reasoning for it, especially for a company thats business plan is to get peoples money off them once and thats it.

I reckon, with absolutely no burden of proof whatsoever, that Jan will probably be one of thier biggest sales month after the launch.

I know I stopped because it seemed rather pointless and depressing to play on Iso once its death date got announced.

I did the same thing, especially that last week. Maybe I should've binged though!

I also retired a week early from Iso despite having 6,000 games played because I pulled off the unfathomable Quadruple Mega (gained all Colonies, Provinces, Duchies, and Estates in one turn) and I just decided right there that that was how I wanted to go out!

I doubt many people were able to buy in before the site crashed.

Man, I haven't played Dominion in over two months. Every time I think of trying to start playing again, their site is crashed. Must be a sign. Time to move on with my life...

The number of games still seems to be higher than it used to be, you can actually find a game in Great Hall these days.

you can't seriously expect us to believe you've got friends...

[Ozle]

They still count as friends even if they don't know me till i jump out at them and introduce myself, for example at a restaurant/shop right?

Looks like Goko missed their chance to retain a bunch of new people.

My shocked face, let me show you it.

[Watno]

The fact that that they have disappearing logs probably doesn't help either.

I think  recent datas are wrong. About 50% of game create a log so the other can't be in those datas.

I didn't realize that. Let's hope that's what going on, but I have noticed fewer people in rooms when I play, too.
