Josh Ling @ Adopt Me!

I'm not gonna lie, your number are a bit sus. I mean literally that peak is followed by a 100K+ drop quickly after you released the update. And it's been consistently 300-350K since the release. (I've noticed this a few times before too) Mind showing us the graph since the peak?

There's nothing suspicious about it. The update launched at 10:03, people start joining. It peaks at 10:53, 50 mins after launch. People who already played it start leaving. "100k" drop doesn't happen until 12:13, 1h20m after the update launches. This is a typical update pattern

You're making the mistake of tracking peak to drop, but you aren't accounting for the 200,000 players who joined and played within the 50 minutes it took to hit peak. More people join than leave = number goes up. More people leave than join = number goes down. Maths!

Sorry I can only see concurrent players and what is presented by the ROBLOX interface. And sure that number was still around 350K and has been steady around 300-350 for hours. Maybe I missed that peak. Anyway it's a great number regardless. 1/2

Just curious if the last weeks drama had any bearing on these numbers. Anyway I get it, even 400K concurrent players could actually mean 1 Million+ players passed through gate over a few hours. You are doing huge numbers so great job. 2/2

yeah man, no shade - your tweet is completely understandable in the context of the image I posted, and thanks for the compliments! You inspired me to make a short YT video clearing things up even more with visual guideshttps://twitter.com/tactful/status/1233600939963056128 …
