We query the server directly for its frame rate, entity count and memory4. Low frames per second and a climbing entity count are what players feel as lag (Figure 2).

5.1Schedule

Not enough wipes seen yet to tell when the next one is. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.

5.2History

Table 2: Every wipe recorded, newest first.
Wiped (UTC)PeakCrowdLastedBefore
No wipe seen yet.

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. Before: players just before it wiped. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
