Perhaps just plateauing, here's another one with a 60 day moving average trendline*

I don't know whether the Lounge is on the slide or not - I don't think that's right in 'real' terms.


I'm surprised it kept its end up - until the split all the family discussion stuff and drawing room stuff went in the lounge.


Since these two added together are half of Lounge's overall traffic, I'd have expected to see the Lounge halve in size if it didn't attract new and growing audiences.


So for me the Lounge 'plateau' actually represents a doubling in size!

Very valid point Huguenot, you can see the Lounge traffic dip in July last year when the other rooms were created.


Sorry Keef, the stats come from Google Analytics which measures general website traffic it can't work out individual's actions from the forum's database. Unspecifically I can tell you though that your posts have gone from 'a lot' to 'not as many'.

That is not right. A 60-day simple moving average should be applied after zero values are removed from the time series (e.g. the first chart).


The second chart looks like an IPCC data manipulation 'trick' was applied to produce an EDF version of the ?hockey stick graph? :)


Interesting post nevertheless - thanks.

I don't think in general 60 days averages should remove zero values - but it should in this case as it was 'suspension' not audience activity that caused it.


But either way HAL, I've made the mental leap to remove the suspension from the graph and I'm not paying attention to the apparent rise in the last two month average data.


It's clear that activity remanined fairly consistent across the last 6 months, which means that activity must have increased on non family and non Drawing Room material to compensate for the appearance of those sections.


That's why I'm saying the Lounge is even more successful now than it was in the past.


Mind you, all these graphs feel a bit like looking in the loo after you've done a whoopsie ;-)

    • He/she followed me and my friends quite a long way along the road so we worried they might be out of their catchment area. Quite dusty paws which also made me think perhaps they’d been roaming away from home for a few days. Took photos in case anyone is missing them! Very pretty, friendly long-haired black and white cat, leopard print collar, pink paw-print metal tag. They eventually stopped following us across the road from Mrs Robinson.
    • I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.
    • I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?
    • I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy.  I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
