Hello,

How is the number of plays counter updated?

1) Is it incremented after each visit?

2) Unique vistors/once per IP address?

Also, does the counter update in real time? If not then how long is the delay?

Thanks!

It's a bit squirrelly, sometimes it gets stuck, but seems to still keep count somewhere.

For example the Share icons for two of my games:

Pucked says: 179

Chicks says: 1026

In the arcade the counts are the opposite:

Pucked says: 5926

Chicks says: 269

(Orbital is off by 900)

My games in the Top list haven't changed position in months.

But we are all waiting on the new arcade that is currently in the works. So we haven't been concerned about it.
