Done.

Cool,, but I don't like the way the graph is set up. It might just be my phone though.

What's wrong with it?

Looks bland,, and I think the food line is glitched.

Pretty sure it isn't, but I'll try rebuilding the cache.

TBB was always pretty awful about prices. I actually had stuff in place to measure average prices over the life of the game, and even in the early game when that reflected only current prices, TBB was way off.

All of kalph's servers crashed, apparently.
This includes mine.
Hopefully we have all data saved, but I do need to reconstruct a script file, and I'm somewhat busy today.
The server will be back up soon, probably without any lost data.

There isn't anything wrong.
?..

I came, I made a hotdog stand but sold it because i got bored.

Also Dren, Could you be on more often? Most of the builds that are made there are spam.

but sold it because i got bored.
You failed to understand the game.
Your stuff is all saved, all the time.
If you're bored, you leave, and come back when you have money/goods and then you build.

Also, server is up.

You should host this more I never see it up :o

TBB's statistics were based off stores that were stocked, and then an average was calculated. There were many places that weren't operated and were just taking up space, which were ignored. A system monitoring RoB would have collected information from everywhere, even stores that hadn't retailed for weeks, where TBB only counted a number of stores that were functional.

Because of this, the prices were very accurate in reflecting the bulk of stores in the central area.

I can't speak for wallet, but I do know how Dren's graphs work.
There is a completely automated system logging the unit average price (not the store average) of open stores every three minutes. The visual graph then downloads the log and imports it into BigTables when someone visits a special URL. This behavior will probably be improved later on.

I think the graph is pretty impressive already, I was just stating that the only difference between TBB's hand made graph as opposed to Wallets statistics monitoring was that he couldn't filter out stores that weren't selling, and were effectively useless for the statistics.
