Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. M: the magnitude of the wipe, log10 of the rise from the players before it to that peak. First 48 h: its players hour by hour from the wipe. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
