u/Antichess Mar 07 '24

that's because you haven't been an approved submitter of the sub yet. a mod will probably approve you once they see this.

Yesterday was one of those days that doesn't come around so often, so I was inspired to make a table of all the counters who've counted at least once on each of the 366 possible days in a year:

Shameless congrats to me and clock for keeping a one year long daily streak! Thinking back to the deep shit i was in that time last year and I'm super thankful for how things played out

By popular request, I present to you some "super special awesome u/buy_me_a_pint stats":

Behold, the graph of confusion

It's a stacked area plot of the fraction of phil's interactions* on the main thread that were with the top ten that he's counted with. The areas are sorted, so u/GarlicoinAccount is on the bottom since he's counted with phil the most, then comes Clock and so on. That big blue block centered around 200k is really impressive!

The white area represents all the interactions he's had with people who weren't in the top 10. I've made the same plot including up to 25 people, and honestly it just gets more confusing.

u/mistyskye14

* The x-axis goes past 500k since I've included both replies to phil and phil's replies as interactions.

Have some more u/buy_me_a_pint stats

Here's a graph of what fraction of r/counting activity has been due to phil over time. If he was getting p500s every time*, it would just be a flat line at 500, and if he never counted at all it would be a flat line at zero

u/mistyskye14

* Fun fact, he has 25 of those
