CAA Chart..

[ThaKladd]

I made a chart to se how the memers have expanded from the first day... and.. wow it's steady...

just 4 fun

edit: that is wrong, I relise... new coming soon (the dates must be every month...)

Except that our rate of growth is far from constant. Exponential, as a matter of fact. But ah well. As you said, just for fun.

I agree with uc pseudonym - the CAA's growth rate has been exponential instead of a straight line]

[size=84]Example:

It will be rather interesting to see the actual graph you are planning, ThaKladd. It will require a lot of research, etc. etc. Good luck! ~_~

(Yes, yes. All in for fun, I know that, hehe.)

as I edited and told... it was wrong, the first chart.. sorry about that.. (i did not think)

It is not right because the dates is not by month, but by members...

I made a new one, and this time it is right!!

note: it's based on the member number, not the actual members... example: The newest member is Ripton13 and he is nr 1399 - but there is only 1230 members... but still I think the chart gives a idea of the growth.

Hey, that's pretty cool. Now if we could see a comparison chart of how many members actually post.

[Zilch]

And the chart goes doooowwnnnn...

[ThaKladd]

That is a little bit harder

there should be stats for every person.. or total stats.. many IRC channels have that..

[Technomancer]

Hmm. It'd be interesting to try some curve fitting algorithms. I'm wondering if the growth might not be ploynomial rather than exponential. It's definately not linear in any case.

[ThaKladd]

Yea.. I could try that...

*a sec later*

let me see.... the best formula, according to my calculator(Casio fx-9750G) is y=ax^2+bx+c with a=7.45 b=68 c=-78

Using the Table function I then can see if its show the right numbers for the first 10 months that the chart showed... and Yes! it is +-50 in the start, but +-5 in the end.

The future looks like this:
26. March = member number is up in 1570(-180 = 1390 members)
26. April = member number is up in 1810(-190 = 1620 members)
26. May = member number is up in 2065(-200 = 1865 members)
26. June = member number is up in 2335(-210 = 2125 members)
26. July = member number is up in 2620(-220 = 2400 members)

so.. now we are waiting to se if its going to be fullfilled.. this little statical prophecy of mine...

This is the real deal:

Woah, what happened in September? Perhaps it was the Troll days long ago.

those charts are cool!!!!
It's neat to see how CAA has grown.
