Stats in a nutshell
All charts are dynamic. You can click and drag to zoom on a specific portion of a chart.
Note: Values between parenthesis are variations since the last time I posted those stats.
General
There are total counts.This is of the main thread's number of counts.
Counts are ranging from to , making a total range of , which is 1/ of the maximum possible range with that many counts.
The average count value is , and the median count value is .
Most common counts
# | The number ... | was counted ... times |
---|
Least common counts
# | The number ... | was counted ... times |
---|
Reply time
The first Tug of War count was counted ago, on 2015-11-05 17:13:39 UTC.Since then, the time between two consecutive counts has ranged from to .
The average reply time is . The median reply time is .
For comparison, the reply time for counts reaching a get has ranged from to .
The average reply time for counts reaching a get is . The median reply time for counts reaching a get is .
Count direction
The longest increasing streak lasted counts. This is of the entire range.This streak went up from to .
The longest decreasing streak lasted counts. This is of the entire range.
This streak went down from to .
On average, the count changes direction every counts.
On average, increasing streaks last counts longer than decreasing ones.
Count sign
Out of all the counts, are strictly positive, while are strictly negative.This means of all counts are strictly positive, and are strictly negative.
Zero was counted times, which is 1 count in .
The longest positive streak lasted counts.
The longest negative streak lasted counts.
The current streak is and is counts long.
Other
There were deleted or otherwise unreadable counts that I had to interpolate based on what seemed more likely.We have forked times off the oldest count.
Stalemates
The counts that were reached the most consecutives times in a row are:One-value stalemates
# | The number ... | was counted ... consecutives times |
---|
Two-value stalemates
# | The numbers ... | were counted for ... comments in a row |

Get length
The shortest get took 200 counts. This happened several times over the course of the Tug of War, and can't be beaten, since gets are every 200 counts.The longest get took counts, and went from to .

Note: Values between parenthesis are variations since the last time I posted those stats.
General
There are reddit users taking part in the Tug of War.On average, each user has counted times, with a median of counts.
# | The user ... | has counted ... times | Variation |

Gets and assists
Users with the most gets
Here are displayed the counters who have obtained at least gets.# | The user ... | has obtained ... gets |

Users with the most assists
Here are displayed the counters who have obtained at least assists.# | The user ... | has obtained ... assists |

Reply time
Users with the lowest median reply time
Here are the 100 fastest users amongst the users who have counted at least times.# | The user ... | has a median reply time of ... seconds | over ... counts |

Users with the highest score
To give a more meaningful ranking of the fastest and most active users, here are the 100 users with the highest "counting score", determined as the sum of the inverse square roots of this user's reply times in seconds.This allows us to include users with very few counts but an overall high speed.
For example, 100 16-second counts are worth as many points as 50 4-seconds counts, or 25 1-second counts.
# | The user ... | has a score of ... |

Users with the lowest average reply time
Here are the 100 fastest users amongst the users who have counted at least times. Note that this calculation uses the average reply time, which might not be the best indicator of speed overall.# | The user ... | has an average reply time of ... seconds | over ... counts |

Teams
Highest scoring teams
Here are the 20 pairs of users who have counted together the most often. The number of points a team has is the number of comments posted by this team that have been replied to by the other team member.# | The users ... | have shared ... counts |

- How does it work?
- Regularly (usually when a get is reached), I fetch all the recent count data from Reddit using a small script that I wrote. After making sure everything is right, I then use another script to generate the statistics, that I simply paste into a file. This website then reads this data and displays the statistics in a more aesthetically pleasing way. If you want to see what the raw stat file looks like, take a look here.
- What's next?
- I plan on adding more statistics. In particular, more user-based stats (who participated in most threads, etc). Since I already have the complete dataset, it is easy to generate those statistics.
- Is the data reliable?
- All the counts were gathered automatically, and then checked, so this isn't a source of error. However, some slight alterations had to be made to the data. For example, it sometimes happened that someone missed a count or counted twice the same number, and it wasn't always noticed by the users. I could unfortunately not leave that as is, due to how the scripts I'm using to generate statistics work, and I had to manually "fix" a few counts here and there, by changing a digit or sometimes adding or removing a count. This is why if you examine the data carefully, you will find a few discrepancies. I did my best to keep that editing to a minimum and to do it in the most coherent way possible, but if you notice that something looks wrong, feel free to message me and I will see if I can change it. For reference, I estimate about 0.2% of the data (500 counts) were altered this way.
- Contact
- Have a suggestion on how to improve the website or add more stats? Found a typo? Something looks wrong? Feel free to shoot me an e-mail or a message on Reddit!
- Raw data & scripts
- The raw data of the Tug of War threads (list of threads, forks, complete formatted file with usernames, counts and comment submission dates) will soon be available directly on the website. For now, just message me if you want access to this data, or to the scripts I used to generate it.
25 May 2019:
- Added statistic: current positive/negative count streak- Added statistic: current positive/negative get streak
- Added statistics for "get counts", meaning counts that reached a get
21 May 2019:
- Two new charts are available at the bottom of the "Charts" tab: The first one shows how many counts were posted above or below each number. The second one shows how much time the count spent above or below each number- Slight formatting and visual improvements
5 May 2019:
- Charts are now dynamic! You can click and drag on them to zoom. A legend in the top right corner also gives you the exact values.- Statistics generation is now dynamic as well! This changes nothing for users, but it means I no longer have to copy paste every single statistic, as they are generated directly in the right format into this file. This means that data updates are now about three times faster than earlier.
29 Apr 2019:
