Last year, I made the following predictions about the populations for this year. Let's see how I did (Probably terrible considering open reg happened haha) Here's last year's estimate card. I expected a decrease in growth of 18% and, well, that sure as heck didn't happen haha. [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/352241800141996032/397079969353695253/unknown.png[/img] I also made this prediction: "Light is still expected to pass Nature in 2018 but... Only Barely. Plague passing Wind is no longer expected until 2019." Which, well, I was backwards. Plague did pass Wind! But definitely no Light gains here. I don't actually foresee Light passing Nature at all anymore. If you'd like to know Precisely how wrong I was, take a look at this... Earth - Estimated Population (11534), Actual Population (12392), Short by: 858 users Plague - Estimated Population (41747), Actual Population (44919), Short by: 3172 users Wind - Estimated Population (42163), Actual Population (43973), Short by: 1810 users Water - Estimated Population (25864), Actual Population (27658), Short by: 1794 users Lightning - Estimated Population (39273), Actual Population (41457), Short by: 2184 users Ice - Estimated Population (38713), Actual Population (40629), Short by: 1916 users Shadow - Estimated Population (57840), Actual Population (62472), Short by: 4632 users Light - Estimated Population (37262), Actual Population (37958), Short by: 696 users Arcane - Estimated Population (53512), Actual Population (57143), Short by: 3631 users Nature - Estimated Population (37210), Actual Population (39557), Short by: 2347 users Fire - Estimated Population (23643), Actual Population (25033), Short by: 1390 users In sum, we gained around 24430 more users than I thought we would. :o I'm gonna go ahead and myself a solid C- for "Well! I tried!" Here's the card from the year before in case you're curious: [img]https://68.media.tumblr.com/6c866b92be48c95277f1c88d84544fad/tumblr_oj4aplOuke1tes27xo1_1280.png[/img] These numbers for New Years 2019 are actually closer than the ones from the start of the year. I overestimated that year by a lot, so I thought "okay I'll take annual decreases into account" and then ate my words haha Going forward, and knowing that open registration has spiked numbers, let's come up with a new card. The average growth since open reg has been 1573 users, but we haven't seen numbers that large in a while, so it's possible that this is either a season effect, or we're steadying out a little slower. The average growth since October has been 1386. I'm going to be Optimistic and assume that this is possibly a seasonal effect, with a slight decrease over time possible (let's say 10% per year, for no real reason at all other than "last time I used the actual 18% decrease, my numbers got tossed out that window. so we'll be more conservative this time"). Taking this into account, here's my prediction card for this next year: [img]https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/498845335439802368/541678623136940057/unknown.png[/img] I'm no longer expecting a Light takeover. No, now we're seeing that possibly Nature will overtake Ice at some point in like.... 2021... So uh, buckle up kids for our next exciting flip in something like 3 years.
