Yes (not that most people con or age die anything).

I looked over 2365 player files, level 30 and above that have deleted, and here's the data I gathered.

- 2365 pfiles
- Average lifespan in calendar days = 65 days
- Average playing time in hours online = 90 hours
- 1991 of 2365 players have less than 105 day lifespan (84.19%) - roll up the first day they are open to everyone
- 1454 of 2365 players have less than 60 day lifespan (61.48%) - roll up the last day they are open to everyone

Does it cover every scenario? No, but I think it's pretty good. You know what you're getting into when you roll it up.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
