How long do you all think it will be until we hit 2,000,000 members?
 
I'm thinking around 4-5 years, placing my bets on May of 2019.

how long do you think we have 2,000,000 active members that play ffr

I'm thinking about never

if we had 2,000,000 people using FFR all at the same time FFR would crash.

It's bad enough as it is sometimes during tournaments.

Where's blazze, anaru, and yaboy at? We could have 2mil accounts by Christmas.

To me, 3.5 years seems reasonable, since that seems like the amount of time it took to add 100,000 accounts to the counter.

I bet there are less than 100,000 legit individual users registered.

April 24th, 2016 will be the day we hit 2 millions

member 1.75M is 3.75 years old
member 1.775M is 3.29 years old
member 1.8M is 2.67 years old
member 1.825M is 2.08 years old
member 1.85M is 1.4 years old
member 1.875M is 0.96 years old
member 1.9M is 0.12 years old

plug it into a linear regression calculator and you get that you expect 2 million members in 2.17 years from now, which is mid-february 2017

But what's the R squared?
Did we accept or reject the null hypothesis?

With people like Preggers, we'll hit that milestone easily in the next year, I won't even give it a full year to be honest :p

Better change this thread to "Name people with alts"

ok i'm not sure if you're being serious with this post, or (as i suspect) whether you've just finished taking a statistics class and decided to fling words around on here to make yourself look smart, but just in case:

if you want the r^2 value then put the numbers into the online calculator i linked and press the calculate button and scroll down.

linear regression is the wrong test to use for hypothesis testing here. that's because the number of accounts has got to go up with time, which is a causal factor that you're ignoring when you do the test. what you should be doing is testing whether the new accounts are generated at a constant rate, and if you want to do that using only the data i've given you, you do a chi-squared goodness-of-fit. but in this case there's no point in doing that because if you stare at the numbers and don't blink for a few seconds, you'll notice that hell will freeze over and leonardo dicaprio will win an oscar before a poisson process would generate numbers like this. obviously a fixed rate poisson process is far too strong a condition to use here, but there's not much that can be done except assume linearity and go for the trend line.
