Err, can you explain to me how you did this?... I still dont really get it. The obvious answer would be that you tracked the stats every day/every time rankings were updated and collected the data over this given period of time, then organized the data into what you have now but... that takes a lot of work and effort (least I think...) and a lot of dedication and love for numbers/statistics I know most people dont have (I know I dont).
Either way, those are some interesting numbers and it seems some people level'd a lot during that time, a lot more than I did anyways xD

You've pretty much summed it up, only replace "you" with a computer that does the repetitive parts for me and some high level data manipulation and formatting languages to make the results meaningful and readable.
Something just came to mind, your overall statistics show two separate groups of players, one being the top 25 by exp gain, and the other, the top 25 by level gain.
So, are the Day by Day statistics supposed to show the same groups of people in both groups, or is that unintentional?
An example if I'm explaining this badly:

The latter doesn't seem to be sorted by actual level gain like the overall statistics are - I'm assuming this is an error of some sort?
Remember to add in centenarians. Else I'd easily prove the level gain wrong. And, while we're at it; does this apply to characters that were below level 100 at the beginning of the holiday 2x event? Does not seem like it.

It should've accounted for anyone who passed through that window, but congratulations - You caught a glitch . It wasn't properly looking at the subjective min and max of each person in the time window, it was only looking at people who were present on both first and last days of each range, which changed the "Overall" results for level gain, if nothing else.

Well, it's not like it's a competition for finding glitches, but heh, handy to know what you're doing and working with.
Your work seems to be rather interesting though. I'm tempted to make something similar and let it work out for a week, then check some months afterwards to compare activity etc.

He(?) thinks everything is a compettition. Expecially the "Who can find out what sex he/she is" one. He(?) likes that one alot. But I also think his(?) information is helpful.

Don't let his arrogance bother you.
What has that to do with me finding a "glitch"? eos367 hasn't been arrogant/mean or anything towards me either (as far as I notice).

Well at first I was having simple viris problems most likely gotten on my comp by one of my brothers. But when I ran my new anti spyware I got my comp went into a ble screen of death. At which time I can no longer boot my comp. I try to go to last config, safe mode, etc. none worked so it's either system restore or a new comp now if that doesn't work.
