Sorry the site is down again. The problem is with the hosting administrator needing to approve cron job scripts.
I submitted a ticket a while back, but still no answer.

After waiting over a week for customer support to reply to one support ticket, I decided to switch back to the previous host. I figured out the issue that made me switch in the first place and the 24 Hour tracker is back up and running.

The site is up again!

As always, let me know if any unintended events occur.

Over 1,000 Unique users logged on since patch. In the future, we plan on publishing an improved and more comprehensive bit of data on the number of 'active' players than just simply how many are online at any given time.

That's really a lot. Makes me excited to maybe try the non-forum game again. :)

Can you tell us if the active users count indicates unique IP's? I have 5+ accounts I am likely to log in on any given day, but not more than 2 at a time. I know it has been said that the old status page gave a good representation of actual users and not just accounts logged in, but it would be nice if you could clarify that here with the unveiling of the new status page. Thanks.

It counts Unique users, but this could be achieved multiple times by the same player. It is NOT counting unique "characters".

So its not an IP check, then. If I recall, jorbtar were always giving the impression that the status page did infact only count unique IP connections (IE, Imrielle could be logged in on two accounts, but the status page would consider it as one user online). Has this changed, or is weekly and daily count just a temporary thing, and not fully coded?
