Geography Snap Statistics (November 2022)

As many of you know by now, there is a leaderboard in every game mode of Geography Snap. More precisely, the 5 fastest players per day, per week and since the beginning of Geography Snap (not really, more like since 26^th October 2020). Well, the player Changedaworld invented a points system according to the rank of a player in the All-Time leaderboard. Here it is :

1^st place : 7 points

2^nd place : 5 points

3^rd place : 3 points

4^th place : 2 points

5^th place : 1 point

So, here is a leaderboard for November :

As you can see, there are 4 "new" players in the leaderboard : boepnx77, Daxzz, Jilb and Sammyboi. I said "new" because both Jilb and Sammyboi were already in previous leaderboards, they just came back. Also, for the first time, there is not a single ousted player !

The player who's the 1^st in the most categories is... Changedaworld, being first in 32 game modes.

The player who's the 2^nd in the most categories is... SilverDog, being second in 31 game modes.

The player who's the 3^rd in the most categories is... Dagod, being third in 16 game modes.

The players who are the 4^th in the most categories are... Batman23 and tamara, both being fourth in 6 game modes.

The player who's the 5^th in the most categories is... Batman23, being fifth in 10 game modes.

The greatest gap between 2 consecutive players is 6,3 seconds, between SilverDog's 11,0 seconds and Gumbledalf's 17,3 seconds, in Countries, Capitals & Shapes Medium.

The greatest gap between the 1^st and the 5^th is 10,4 seconds, between Changedaworld's 19,5 seconds and Dagod's 29,9 seconds, in Countries, Capitals & Shapes Hard.

The smallest gap between the 1^st and the 5^th is 0,5 seconds, between Changedaworld's 3,3 seconds and Batman23's 3,8 seconds, in Countries & Flags Easy.

The World Record that has been the most improved during November is the Countries, Capitals & Flags Hard game mode, where it has been improved from 18,5 seconds to 14,8 seconds ! That's 3,7 seconds that were cut off !

The game mode where the sum of every time in the All-Time top 5 has been the most improved is also Countries, Capitals & Flags Hard, where a whopping 12,6 seconds have been taken off !

If we add every time in every All-Time top 5, we get to... 2427,2 seconds, or 40 minutes and 27,2 seconds. That's 1 minute and 31,8 seconds that were cut off during November ! And if we only take the time of the 1^st in every All-Time, we get to 377,5 seconds, or 6 minutes and 17,5 seconds. That's 37,9 seconds that were cut off during November !

Now, because the number of people who had at least one World Record still didn't changed at all during November, there will no be no graph for this one too.

Fun Fact : On November 16^th, Sammyboi managed to break the World Record in the Countries, Capitals and Flags Hard game mode, with a 18.1s. However, since it was broken before the end of the day, it's not shown on the inexistent graph. The last time a World Record was broken by someone who's not Changedaworld or me was back on July, 12^th !

In conclusion, this month has been pretty good for Geography Snap (well at least it couldn't have been worse than October). With the game being updated, I thought some of the World Records of the 45 basic game modes would be broken by other people, but no... Instead, improvements of World Records, but also new players. Now, as I said in the October Statistics blog, I will make a separate leaderboard for the 189 total game modes, because why not suffer, after all ? And for December, well I think it will be a good month, especially for the sum of all times in all 45 basic leaderboards, considering the update made players play the basic game modes too. The 40-minute barrier will definitely be broken during December, and maybe the 6-minute one for 1st places too.
