Player online stats

Well, now that I have a database with about 400MB of data about the arma servers, I thought I could make a kind of ranking out of it who was most active in the last 19 days. This is what I came up with. If you don't want to show up on the list, please tell me and you'll be removed.

you what?

hehehe
why have you compiled this list?
hehe
certainly not for a player ranking
surely?

there must be deeper and darker reasons
impenetrable to the mere monkey mind

edit:
just looked at the list
and heheeh
that's funny
50 hours in 19 days
18 hours a week
hehehhehehe

Wow!
There's over 15 people there spend more than 10% of their lives playing tron. It's more popular that I thought.

Why 19 days? Seems like a bit of a random number...

Tank: That's how much data I have. I pruned it once two weeks ago deleting everything older than 5 days, now I have a new harddisk and can store a lot more info. It's storing a list of all online servers and players every minute, so there's lots of data.

ed: yeah, surprising, isn't it?

2020: the reasons are left to everyone's imaginations

Here's another useless stat: At any given time, there's on average 44.9830642 players online. If you were to pay them the US minimum wage you'd have to pay about USD 2×10^6 or 1.6×10^6 € per year. At a salary of CAD 40,000 per year, working 8 hours a day and 5 hours a week you'd have to pay USD 6×10^6 or 5.3×10^6 € per year.

There you see the economical damage of computer games!

10^6 = 1 million

Ah, I see. That number of players online seems right too. I wonder if I should make my list update every minute. I'm having it do it every 10 because if it screws up that'd be a lot of screwed up processes running around...
