The History page of Kitely accounts has the option to download a history report that can be opened with spreadsheet programs such as Numbers or Excel.

I've just done this for my account, then copied the section for November 2015 to a new sheet to look at those statistics in more detail.

During November, Intersections was visited 176 times by 37 unique avatars, 11 of whom arrived via the Hypergrid from six different grids.

The avatars spent just under 149 hours (a total of 8929 minutes) in Intersections over the month. The longest visit was 5 hours; 64 visits (36%) were over an hour long; 33 visits (18%) were under 10 minutes.

For obvious reasons (it's set as my home), I visited the world most (49 times), though others spent more time inworld overall. The next highest numbers of visits by individual avatars were 30 and 27 times.

Those who visited Intersections just once (25 avatars) spent a total 740 minutes inworld, or 29 minutes each on average. Seven of these unique visits were over 30 minutes, with the longest being 162 minutes. Nine unique visits lasted between 10 and 30 minutes.

How has the use of these regions changed over the past year? To compare, I copied the account history entries for November 2014 into another spreadsheet.

The current Intersections was formed from OARs of several PAYG Premium worlds that I held in November 2014, plus one fixed-price world. So for this comparison, I'm using the entries for just those particular worlds.

During November 2014, these worlds were visited 183 times by 41 avatars, four of which I know are alts of friends or my own. Of the 183 visits, 21 were made via the hypergrid, by 10 unique avatars from seven different grids.

The avatars spent 5156 minutes in these worlds over the month, or just under 86 hours. The longest visit was 156 minutes (2 hours 36 minutes); 30 visits (16%) were over an hour long; 79 visits (43%) were under 10 minutes.

I visited the worlds most (92 including occasional visits via alts). The next highest numbers of visits by individual avatars were 11 and 6 times.

Those who visited the worlds just once (17 avatars) spent a total 253 minutes inworld, or about 15 minutes each on average. Five of these were over 30 minutes, with the longest being 37 minutes.

For easier comparison, here are the numbers side by side.

The numbers of visits and visitors in November are roughly the same for both years.

Code: Select all

2014    2015
183     176  total number of visits during November
41      37   total number of avatars, of which ...
10      11   avatars arrived via the hypergrid from ...
7       6    different grids
The big difference is in how long the visits lasted:

Code: Select all

2014    2015
86      149  total avatar-hours spent inworld
2.6     5    hours longest continuous inworld visit
16%     36%  proportion of visits over 1 hour long
41%     46%  proportion of visits between 10 and 60 minutes long
43%     18%  proportion of visits under 10 minutes long

If you missed the gathering held at Vespers Lodge on Christmas Day, there's another chance to join up with others on Boxing Day.

Intersections is going to be one of the destinations on the Metaverse Tour, which starts at Kitely Welcome Center at 1 pm grid time. Virtual Christine is organising this tour.

I was one of these visitors in these last monthly stats, and I can tell you if you haven't been you should go, a very pretty place indeed! :)
