I am in stat and prob and need more practice. This will be graphed and posted.

Any recommendations for what to poll next?

I am truly sorry I forgot Australia, I was so focused on not putting Antarctica that it completely slipped my mind. Thank you so much for pointing this out @analyticrambles

I know WHAT it is. I just don't know WHY it is.

Wild life session 3 had many deaths, here they are as a bar graph

[stewupdate]

A study into The Captain and all the random stuff he does. Largely inspired by the graphs that @m0ose-idiot made about ghosts insults. I tried my best, but the data is probably not perfect.

Favorite DnP Tour Song Statistics

Settle round, little ducklings, do I have some statistics to share with you all!!

A grand total of 156 people participated in this survey, so thank you if you took the time to fill it out! 🧡

As a teaser, here’s a pie chart of the votes for your favorite song! We’ll be discussing this in depth in its own section but I know some of you f*ck vibe with pie charts more than the bar charts I use there…

To give you a clear vision of what we’ll be looking at, here are the categories of the upcoming analysis:

Phandometrics (community growth on a viewership & fandom scale)

Favorite Song (general)

Favorite Song vs. Phandometrics (the main hypothesis!)

Honorable Mentions (fun little quirks I noticed along the way)

Ready? Time to read on.

PHANDOMETRICS

Lag between year started watching -> year joined the phandom. This can be seen most obviously in the 2009-2015 portion of the graph, likely when the community was just building up. I went back to check individual points, and many people seem to join a year or two after starting to watch.

Three distinct peaks of phandom growth: 2015 (dnp popularity peak), 2019 (coming out), and 2023 (dnpg comeback, dnp renaissance). Pretty expected, but still cool to see!

The difference between the peaks when you look at viewership vs. phandom is interesting though! Especially 2019 seems to be a huge spike in viewership, but the phandom growth seems a little more gradual (maybe more people lurked at first, then joined the phandom in 2023 once they were more active?).

The 2012 peak is really interesting. Most popular year to start watching from this sample, apparently!

FAVORITE SONG

"The Internet is Here" won 51.3% of the votes... which didn't surprise me all that much. It's iconic, okay?

II is about half as popular, and beyond the song qualities themselves, I wonder if a contributing factor to this pattern could be its lack of availability as an officially released song.

I think Everything's Fine is so low partially bc I closed the poll before WAD released to prevent the recency effect from skewing the data. (Especially because I thought we were getting "Everything's Fine (Acoustic)" smh.)

FAVORITE SONG VS. PHANDOMETRICS

By era...

I had a hypothesis: based on the year you joined, which I now realize in my head wrongly equated with the year you were most active in, you'd be more biased towards the song of that era bc a) you were more likely to go to the tour or b) epic nostalgia hit.

Yeah, I was wrong.

When you group the eras you see that TIIH wins in almost every single group by a similar proportion to the total, which means this attitude is fairly evenly distributed amongst the phannies.

By year...

Separating by year, you begin to see that, hold up, the hypothesis could have some merit! In either 2017 or 2018 on both graphs, the II finale actually does win.

The super high TIIH votes bleeding in from 2015/2016 and from 2019 seemed to mask this pattern.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

I have no idea what happened here but both ways you slice it, Interactive Introverts was fighting for its life amongst the 2012 phannies???

We got three phannies that have been watching since 2009!! The fact that people have been sticking around so long (up to fifteen years!!! and this was only a sample of 156 of us!!!) is really heartwarming for me bc it's a testament to how strong of a community dnp have built their viewership to be.

At the end of the day, what can I say? That was a lot of statistics. I hope you enjoyed or took something away from this little survey. Lmk if you notice any other cool trends or have any theories on what the data means!

Thank you for listening to my yapping; have an orange heart.

🧡

2024 annual auroracord protagonist message mentions report

yeah hi uh i'm not that active on auroracord but i love to measure data (in discord messages) over regular periods of time. i thought this could be a nice thing to discuss as a fandom

(we're supposedly using mentions within discord messages as our measure of popularity. gonna discuss one potential flaw of this metric in the Factors section)

2023 mentions

this is my second time making one of these graphs. 1st time was on may 22 2023, less than an hour after the page uploaded, purely out of boredom. it also documented a one year span. i'm not going to discuss this one rn but the rest of you can

may 22 2022 - may 22 2023 kendal: 5041 alinua: 2971 erin: 7546 falst: 4788 tess: 3926 dainix: 3385

2024 mentions

kendal: 7065 alinua: 4142 erin: 8662 falst: 9006 tess: 4432 dainix: 6921

factors affecting character mentions

appearance frequency within current arc

i'd say narrative role would be a pretty major one in other cases but like these are all protagonists. they've been here the whole time

fandom popularity (there is a BUNCH of factors within this one haha. individual & societal biases are going to play in here) -- real life fan demographics (age, gender, sexual orientation, various neurodivergences etc. can't break this down by category because discord's very private but this is probably affecting popularity somehow) -- fandom demographics (kendal fans vs alinua fans vs dainix fans present in the server etc) -- character complexity i guess (ex. i'd say tess would get less discussion bc her character's like kind of comfy & resolved already). this factor is also very subjective subjective (refer to point below) -- from the previous 2 points, demographics of the characters themselves (gender, race, sexual orientation? uh. personality if you want to share disorders with them, age if that varied that much for these guys, etc.)

FLAW: controversy! they don't have to be liked to be discussed. worth noting that on discord (conversation platform) majority favorites may trump individual tastes here (ex. a kendal fan may end up mentioning erin more because he comes up in conversation more often)

expected changes:

overall numbers are higher compared to last year due to higher server population

dainix & falst get a huge boost mentions because of dungeon arc & subsequent shipping stuff

alinua remains the lowest 😐

tess gets less discussion due to her character being like. pretty comfortable . what i said

unexpected changes:

alinua's mentions were like half erin's what the hell. still remaining staggeringly low somehow

kendal's position is in a relatively similar place. was expecting him to be lower but that's probably because i personally don't think of him that much

ok i've been not very active here but i don't recall people discussing erin so much that he can compete with the emerging crustables yaoi

to do:

make an average 'character mentions per month' graph for the 6 aurora protags. i want to get a baseline of how many mentions are normal for them

anyway if you liked these graphs i encourage you to make your own for other fan servers you may be a part of. fun activity
