First events tracked here this month

Snapshot frozen Oct 5, 2026. Counts completed events in September 2026 (UTC). Seats filled = total players across those events (check-ins, not unique players).

Why this may differ from the live chart: This report is a fixed snapshot taken on the date above. The homepage growth chart recounts every day, so its total for September 2026can differ slightly. An event's status keeps settling for a week or two after the month ends: organizers close events late (which raises the count) and occasionally cancel them (which lowers it). Both use the same definition (completed events, by start date, in UTC); only the moment of counting differs. We freeze the report so a number you share stays true forever, even as the live chart keeps moving. The vs prev. monthfigure compares this frozen total against the previous month's frozen total. When that month was an unusually large spike (a set-release month, say) whose count later settled lower, the live chart divides by that smaller, updated total, so it can show a gentler change than the fixed percentage here.
