Hi, Is it possible that the movies lost watchers? Normally, I classify my movies to see those with more than 75,000 watchers on Trakt. I had around 1280 listed, but now only 390 show up.
I have a record from a few years ago that made lists of movies, for example, Deadpool had in mar.-24 - 882.501 , and now has. 352.632
Might have to do with this change:
tldr; Yes, it definitely changed. It’s now a much more accurate count.
I can give some more context to this, as well. In the past, we’d use a naive counter as plays came in, we would increment a play count for a movie/show. This would get wildly skewed by duplicate plays added by third party apps.
As part of this stats update, we also have a far more accurate counter by grabbing batches over the past X time period and sorting those plays into buckets. During this grab, we can deduplicate the plays and weed out the artificial inflation of plays. I will also be adding anomaly detection, we’ll do a full recalculation of the show and retain our accuracy.
Thank you for the information, One more thing, you no longer have watchers or plays in some of the most important series such as Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Westworld, etc…, is it because you are updating?
Yes, some stats are still re-calculating and should fill in over the next few days.
