Along with logging Auction House data (which is linked in my signature), since the summer I've also been tracking how many players have been online.
Red = daily minimum
Blue = daily average
Green = daily maximum
As you can see, since mid November we've been steadily increasing our player count after being in a big slump. This is in part due to the awesome facebook campaign that was organized, and in part due to the Christmas season and great events being put on. This Christmas season marked some huge milestones for our server, like the highest player count since at least July 8th--possibly ever--and the highest daily average observed (over 110!). There was a lot of controversy surrounding the event which benefited you to be constantly logged on, however all the naysayers have to concede that it was fucking dope to see the server that active.
Happy New Years everyone. This graph shows a lot of promise for RSCR 2016.
