An off hours dilemma?Most of you already know the minor arena dilemma - nobody goes there if nobody is there, and at some point that's starting to be an ever accelerating process.
It might me that we are seeing the same thing now in the LW arena, just for the low population time of the day.
Once having spend a lot of my playing time during these hours (about 10:00-15:00CEST, 3am to 8 am CDT), I found myself not longer logging in at that time period because my my perceived difficulty of finding any action.
I wondered if this is just my own subjective impression or is there more to it.
To this purpose I ran a detailed activity track for a whole week. I had done this before, so I was able to compare
plane kills and deathsby the hour, between one week in August 2014 and a week in June 2013.
I averaged all 7 days for both weeks respectively and this is what I got:
This graph is showing last weeks average plane kills&deaths compared to one week in tour 161, by the hour (Central European Summer Time - 23:00 would be 4 pm CDT)
As you can see, there's an extreme drop in plane activity for the off-hours period. If I had focused only on the working days, this drop would had been even more severe.
