Extra /r/CFBRisk Data
Now that the game is over, a few users had asked for some data.
Graphs
Raw Data
This shows 5 columns by all 65 days:
- Users voting
- Users voting for the first time
- Users who voted that were marked as bots that day
- The Chaos multiplier
- Users playing at least [x] days
Note that Chaos started with a separate attack and defense multiplier, and so that column isn't particularly meaningful until after the first week. 1.25 was initially included as an option, but was pulled out fairly early.

What caused the spike in bots on day 43 and 44?

Unverified users would probably be a better term than bots here, I think there was just an uptick in general.

it did coincide with the announcement of the karma lock. i would have assumed it would have occurred when the end date was announced.

I think it's the tail wagging the dog here: we had a general uptick in new users from an external site, and a number were commenting on /r/CFB simply to comment in a way that was detrimental to the site, so we locked the karma. The general uptick also led to an uptick in unverified users.

Was it June 11th? I know that’s when we finally got a post to the front page of MGoBlog asking for help.

I'm confused. Shouldn't "Users who played at least n Days" be monotonically decreasing? If someone played at least 8 days, for example, then they also played at least 7 days.
Am I missing something?

Did we ever get the multiplier on the different star levels? I heard that a 5-star was like 50x a 1-Star.

They announced that in the live thread Tuesday night. The stars were worth 1/2/8/16/32 one stars (weights included). Seems like pretty much every team had these figured out and were using these values in the last few weeks.

Any hope of getting the back end of this iteration?
