Blue has overtaken teal

It most likely because stuff is in window or poping on Blue.

It is far more likely due to the fact Teal and Green have had dropping populations since November and Blue's population has remained relatively static. Sure Blue has a boost on the weekends, but so does Teal.

Teal wasn't even released until November third. You're saying that the population started declining when the servers launched? What is it with you people? Green and Teal have781 and 654 players logged in respectively at this moment, and it is an NFL playoff Sunday. The sky isn't falling and we still don't need to merge.

Sure the lower population in the last week of November is skewed due to the holiday, but yea, over the course of November Teal's population was declining. It just wasn't as big of a hit as December was. Teal's peak weekend population is about 2/3 of what it was the weekend after it was released.

I'm not saying Teal is dead, but yea... Teal's population has been in decline since launch. Same with Green. It hasn't reached cataclysmic levels, sure, I was just stating that the reason why Blue is higher today than Teal is not because Blue has had a resurgence, but because Teal has been declining. Are you arguing that 654 is approximately equal to the 1065 Teal had the weekend after it's launch?

Looking at the last 6 datapoints on the graph you provided it seems the population has stabilized over the last month.

Initial interest was bound to wear for some, others have hit 50 and are taking a break (me), but your graph did well to indicate that the server pop is indeed stable.

Can move to resolved.

Just to be clear: 6 data points is 6 days. 6/7ths of a week does not a month make. It's interesting you can actually see waveyness to the line and those spikes correlate to weekends.

I still haven't said Teal is dead, weird how people get defensive when they see the population has dropped from release like... yea, it would drop from release everyone who cared about p99 knew about Green release basically. It'll be interesting how planes effects the trend, but I think Kunark will be the real test of how many people are on Blue holding out for iksar.

Green/Teal might die a few months into Velious and everyone will be getting ready to receive their G/T characters on blue with items there, most likely.
