From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag

This server has not answered a direct query in the last 48 hours.

Note

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.

Notes

  1. 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.
  2. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
