Nick, I shared a private google docs spreadsheet with you detailing average number of players per game for this year.
Start at week 21. Column A = (server) time. Anytime the number of players in a game suddenly goes to zero... is because the taskqueue stopped running. When it restarts, one of two things happen: 1) It clears the queue (NO spike in user numbers.... ie: all unprocessed results from previous games get deleted/lost) 2) It runs the queue (spike in the user count.... ie: all unprocessed results from previous games get processed) -Bye -Richard On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 6:32 PM, Nicholas Verne <nve...@google.com> wrote: > Please give us your app id so we can investigate.
