From a purely personal point of view!!

Hmmm - surprised that Poker Club is doing better than Conquer4!!

While these stats are cool 161 games on Doodle Earth and 141 on Conquerman is misleading. Maybe total active and total overall could be shown. Might make more sense if you had time for it. Cool stats though.

Well, I wouldn't call it misleading; it's a particular measure of map popularity. If a bunch of Doodle Earth fans want to play Doodle Earth for three weeks, they'd play 3 games where Conquer Man fans might only get through 1. Does that mean Doodle Earth is more popular?

Well you just kind of outlined exactly why it IS misleading…

It is not misleading if you look at it from the correct perspective. Mainly that the numbers say how many games are currently being played on a map at the time of running the stats. Does not say anything or implies anything else.

I think is pretty much the most you can get out of the stats.

As per Conquerman how many of those 141 were started this year? No really it is flawed. More people are playing doodle earth by far than Conquerman. Just so happens 70 Conquerman games are locked up in a never ending battle. The sheer number of doodle earth games cannot be discounted.
